Fitness Qigong is a traditional national sport with its own physical activities, breathing and breathing, and psychological adjustment as its main forms of exercise. In 2003, the State Sports General Administration tried to popularize four new techniques of health qigong: Yijinjing, Wuqinxi, Liuzijue and Baduanjin.

Insisting on exercise is beneficial to physical and mental health. It achieves the harmonious unity of body, rest and mind through self-regulation, thus promoting the balance and coordination of the whole body.

The essence of "three tones in one"

Different from general exercise, the main forms of health qigong include: regulating body, regulating qi and regulating heart. If we can achieve the "three tones in one", that is, the qigong state in which the three tones of body adjustment, breath adjustment and heart adjustment are closely combined, we can achieve better results.

Body-shaping, also known as body shaping, refers to consciously adjusting the posture and movements of the body, and body-shaping is the basis of practice. The methods of body adjustment are mainly divided into static work and dynamic work. All exercises in which limbs are basically motionless are called static exercises, and all exercises in which limbs are moving are called dynamic exercises. At present, four new qigong exercises are dynamic exercises.

Breathing regulation, also known as refining qi, refers to consciously adjusting the rhythm, frequency and depth of breathing. The methods of pranayama mainly adopt natural breathing and abdominal breathing.

Adjusting one's mind, also called training one's mind, refers to consciously adjusting one's mental state. It is required to constantly eliminate selfish distractions in the process of practice, gradually establish a good mentality, and adjust the psychology to the most relaxed, natural and comfortable state. These four methods have their own advantages.

The exercise intensity and movement arrangement order of Baduanjin in health qigong conform to the laws of kinematics and physiology. "Brocade" means exquisite luxury, which shows that this set of techniques is as continuous as silk brocade. Elastic combination is one of its characteristics. Relaxation refers to the relaxation of muscles, joints, central nervous system and internal organs during practice. Tension is only a moment in action, while relaxation must run through the whole action. Moderate tightness helps to balance yin and yang, dredge meridians, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and strengthen the body.
