When playing chess, you can concentrate on the game, get rid of other thoughts and concentrate on the game. Anyone who is good at chess knows that "there is fun in chess". "The history of ancient and modern laughter. The Game records the story that Li Ne used chess to control his impatience and anger: "Li Ne is a servant, anxious by nature, calm in playing chess, peaceful in every move and extremely generous. I am always angry, and my family is sneaking around in front of me. I will be happy to change my face when I see it, and I will forget it. " Although Feng Menglong recorded this story as a joke, it also shows that chess can be empathetic.
In a word, playing chess is not only an intellectual competition, but also an entertainment that is beneficial to the body and mind and prolongs life. Playing chess has four advantages for people: spiritual sustenance, physical fitness, thinking exercise and physical and mental comfort. Therefore, since ancient times, there has been a saying that "those who are good at playing games live long."
So what matters should be paid attention to in playing chess to achieve the purpose of health preservation?
First, don't play chess immediately after dinner. Playing chess immediately after a meal increases the blood supply to the brain, thus reducing the blood supply to the digestive tract. Some people, especially the elderly, have less digestive juice, low digestive function and less blood supply to the digestive tract, which will affect the digestion of food.
Second, don't divide the places. Some people play chess regardless of location, or on the roadside, or on the spot. Over time, it is easy to cause respiratory diseases.
Third, don't play chess while eating. "Illness comes from the mouth", playing chess while eating is easy to infect various intestinal diseases, and it can also cause digestive tract diseases.
Fourth, don't smoke while playing chess. Some people smoke while playing chess, which seriously pollutes the environment and is harmful to health for a long time.
Fifth, don't be emotional when playing chess. Poor vascular elasticity in the elderly. When playing chess, if the energy is highly concentrated and the mood fluctuates, the heartbeat will accelerate and the blood pressure will rise, thus inducing angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular accident.
Sixth, don't sit too long when playing chess. The neck muscles and cervical vertebrae are in a relatively fixed position for a long time, which will lead to poor local blood circulation, muscle strain, headache and cervical spondylosis. In addition, it can also lead to gluteus maximus and sciatica, as well as numbness and edema of lower limbs.
Being highly nervous when playing Go can cause extreme physical fatigue. In addition, sedentary will inevitably lead to various diseases. Therefore, we should do some small moves to alleviate the unfavorable factors brought about by playing chess.
People who stand for a long time and sit for a long time will feel pain and numbness in the soles of their feet, and in severe cases, varicose veins of lower limbs will appear, which is due to poor blood return of lower limbs caused by long-term posture and inactivity.
When playing chess for a long time, it is best to do a "tiptoe" exercise for about an hour, that is, constantly raise the heel to make the blood return of the lower limbs smooth. Lift heel's purpose is to contract and squeeze the muscles at the back of the calf, and the amount of blood squeezed out by each contraction is roughly equivalent to the amount of blood discharged by the heart every beat.
