But in fact, many people are blown by the night wind after running, and their skin feels cold. They are more and more afraid of the cold, and their heads are always groggy. The whole person is very uncomfortable.
Sun Yingjie, a professional long-distance runner in China, said frankly: "Fun running is actually more harmful to the body and is not worth promoting." .
Sun Yingjie said, "They are quite tired after a day's work. They think running can relax them, but they are wrong. This is a kind of sub-excitement. I reversed the rules. Go to bed late at night, get up late in the morning, and go to work very tired during the day. You didn't go running until 10 o'clock in the evening. You should be in a light sleep state, but you ran five kilometers excitedly. Going back to sleep is very tiring, but it is accumulated by your fatigue of the day. "
She said that all professional athletes never choose to train at night, which is unscientific.
Fun running = overdraft yang+cold and wet into the body.
In fact, the Yellow Emperor's Canon of Medicine has long told us: "So, if you are yang, you will prosper in a day, while if you are in the middle, you will be strong, while if you are in the west, you will be weak." It was because of dusk that I refused and didn't disturb my bones and muscles. I don't see fog or dew. Instead, I was trapped and lost weight. "
This is about advocating not to exercise at night, not to disturb your bones and muscles, not to sweat, and not to hurt your yang. At night, the yang is inward, the spirit is inward and the pores are inward. At this time, stretching muscles and practicing bones, running and dancing will lead to muscle congestion and viscera deficiency, and people will become more and more boring, and vice versa.
When people are running, blood will flow to the limbs one after another, the temperature will get higher, and the acupoints will open when heated. At this time, when the wind blows, exogenous cold and evil will easily enter the body, and the yang will be further lost.
Of course, this does not mean that getting up early in the morning is good for your health. We should be alert to the dangers of humidity, dew and fog. When running, the pores are open and moisture can easily enter. If the sun hasn't come out yet, playing Tai Chi in the cool breeze is not exercise, but looking for illness. Exercise, let's follow the sun!
Buyang: reasonable exercise+sticking to moxibustion
Morning running: The suitable running time is half an hour to an hour after the sun comes out in the morning, when the sun is shining. Running can stimulate physical vitality and keep people in a good mental state all day.
Running in the afternoon: This time period is between 4 pm and 6 pm. People's physical condition will also have the best moment of the day, whether it is physical strength, mental state or physical function. This can not only improve the efficiency of running, but also reduce the possibility of injury during running. At 4 pm, the bladder meridian is active. At this time, the hydration phenomenon caused by running will be more conducive to the detoxification of the body. Sweating while running is also a good detoxification method.
However, it should be reminded that middle-aged and elderly people should not do fasting or high-intensity morning running, especially patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases!
When running, control the intensity, run slowly, and carry a towel with you to dry at any time. Try not to go out for a run when the weather is too cold or windy.
Chinese medicine says "kinetic energy generates yang". During the day, when the sun has not set, let the body move, which is conducive to the maintenance of yang in the body.
Then, in addition to exercise, what other methods can be used to tonify and nourish yang?
For example, Dou Cai's Bian Que Heart Sutra in the Song Dynasty said: "When people are old and the yang is weak, their hands and feet can't be warm and it is difficult to move. If you hide your breath, you will not die, and those who are angry will give birth to yang. " Therefore, when the yang is exhausted, the heart will die. When people are not sick, they often moxibustion Guanyuan, Qihai, Mingmen and Zhongwan ... Although they are not immortal, they can still live for a hundred years. "
It means that people are weak in yang in their later years, so their hands and feet are cold and their movements are slow and difficult. When people are not sick, they can moxibustion Guanyuan, Qihai, Mingmen and Zhongwan points. Although you can't live forever, you can live for hundreds of years!
Wormwood itself has the function of warming meridians and dispelling cold. Moxibustion can make warm qi permeate from muscle surface to meridians, and because of the relationship between meridians and viscera, it reaches the five internal organs and the twelve meridians, and circulates throughout the body. Moxibustion can warm meridians, dispel cold and dampness, and tonify human yang. Summer happens to be the time when the yang in nature is the heaviest, and the yang and heat of the two are combined, and the warming effect is stronger.
Guanyuan point
Guanyuan: Guanyuan is one of the important acupoints in the human body. Women can cooperate with Sanyinjiao moxibustion, and men can cooperate with Zusanli moxibustion. Among the middle-aged and elderly people, the situation of kidney-yang deficiency is indeed more common. If the diagnosis is clear, moxibustion at Guanyuan point can play the role of warming the middle warmer and strengthening yang, mainly nourishing kidney yang.
Guanyuan point is located in the lower abdomen, and you can choose three inches below the umbilicus. When you moxibustion Guanyuan point, you can use the method of hanging moxibustion, each moxibustion is about 15 minutes, once a day.
Qihai point
Qihai: Qihai point is about one and a half inches below the navel. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this point is the center of the human body and the source of qi, from which the qi of the human body is born. Therefore, massage and acupuncture at Qihai point often have the effects of warming yang and benefiting qi, strengthening the body resistance and strengthening the foundation, and supplementing yuan and deficiency.
Mingmen point
Mingmen point: Mingmen point has a unique health care function, which can not only nourish yin, but also replenish yang.
Regular moxibustion at Mingmen point can strengthen the kidney, warm the kidney, strengthen the yang, strengthen the kidney qi, strengthen the waist and knees, dredge the qi stagnation point on the Du meridian, strengthen the practice connection between Ren meridian and Du meridian, and promote the Qi ascending of Ren meridian and Du meridian.
Often in the study
Zhongwan: Zhongwan point is located in the middle of chest and abdomen, which plays an important role in grasping the general outline of qi and blood on the surface of chest and abdomen.
Moxibustion can regulate the physiological function of gastrointestinal digestive system, promote nutrient absorption, strengthen metabolism and coordinate the interaction between viscera and various tissues and organs through the induction of deep meridians. In addition, stimulating Zhongjie can not only regulate the stomach, but also improve the immune function of human body and increase the ventilation of lungs.
Finally, don't forget that moxibustion and exercise are the same, and long-term persistence can play a great role!
