Yoga is better than Tai Ji Chuan? What are their characteristics?
First, the benefits of practicing yoga:

1 can eliminate fatigue and calm the mind. Keep people comfortable and quiet, and fully enjoy life.

2 can maintain posture balance. Yogis believe that many diseases of human body, such as cervical spondylosis and lumbar spondylosis, are caused by incorrect posture and disorder. Through practice, every facet joint, spine, muscle, ligament and blood vessel can be in good condition.

3 can purify blood, regulate weight, effectively eliminate fat and maintain a balanced diet.

Stimulate endocrine system and maintain endocrine balance.

At the same time, yoga can also achieve the purpose of losing weight mainly through the following ways:

1 Some actions can stimulate the loose glands to increase the release of hormones. Because the thyroid gland is directly related to the metabolism of the body, it will affect the weight. Yoga can also speed up fat metabolism, so fat will be converted into muscle and energy.

Deep breathing exercise in yoga can increase the oxygen uptake of cells in the body, including fat cells, increase oxygenation and burn more fat cells.

Second, the benefits of practicing Tai Ji Chuan:

(1) The characteristics of Tai Ji Chuan are obvious in appearance. Generally, foreign boxing should have the spirit of holding your head high and correcting your bravery. Taiji preach to "hold your head up, close your hips, loosen your shoulders, sink your elbows, hold your chest, pull your back, wrap your hips and tighten your ribs", showing a relaxed manner. Generally, the external fist should be strong and swift, but Tai Ji Chuan should be "loose, slow, round and harmonious". This is a predictable feature.

(2) This posture has its special significance. Lifting the top, closing the hips, raising the chest and pulling the back are the main training methods to lift the spirit, sink the breath and make the breath deep and thin. Coupled with relaxing shoulders and binding ribs, the lung capacity and breathing range of ribs can be expanded, which also creates favorable conditions for the cooperation between abdominal muscles and diaphragm in deep and fine breathing activities. Elbow sinking is the main training method to ensure that the posture of relaxing shoulders and binding ribs is not damaged by pulling when the arms are rotating, especially when the arms are lifted up. At the same time, it is also the main training method to practice both arms flexibly and uncontrollably. Hip wrapping is the key to ensure that the "hip" is genuine, and it is also an important link to stabilize the abdomen when transporting the waist. This is a kind of body posture rule that restricts and helps each other, and it plays a great role in practicing Qi. There is a way to coordinate movements with breathing. According to my experience, this is unnecessary. As long as the correct posture and operating rules are mastered, the posture will not go out of shape, and the internal qi can adjust itself, and the effect of deep breathing is among them. Pay attention to the coordination of breathing when practicing boxing, but it will distract you, you can't get the correct posture, and your spirit is not concentrated enough. Because I am not skilled in posture and methods at school, I don't have time to breathe, cooperate hard, or have abusive behavior. While mastering posture and routines skillfully, we should pay attention to further mastering the new conditions of posture and operation. If we still pay attention to the coordination of breathing, we can only make the movements stagnate and make the mistake of "Qi depression" as Wu Yuxiang said. Therefore, I advocate constantly paying attention to practicing qi in the accuracy of posture and operation, rather than deliberately using breathing to cooperate. As for doing another deep breathing exercise, it's not about practicing Tai Ji Chuan.

About the accuracy of posture and operation, it needs further explanation. The eight rules of posture and the four principles of operation are based on strengthening the accurate sensory reflex of motor system and nervous system. Thereby promoting the improvement of respiratory system function, and further promoting the improvement of circulation and digestive system function. In turn, it will enhance the absorption of nutrients by organs and tissues of each system, improve the health of organs themselves, and improve in the process of improving organs and tissues. This is a link that pushes forward each other. Therefore, long-term practice can prolong life, keep strong and have the ability to work. According to Wu Yuxiang, there are ten rules for posture * * *, such as raising the buttocks and closing the buttocks, mainly to stabilize the posture, which has been explained above. There are also two rules of "prancing" and "flashing", both of which are stable and active postures. "prancing" means that you must distinguish between reality and falsehood when moving and standing, and you can only support your whole body with one leg. "Blitzkrieg" means that when every posture changes, the whole activity is combined with the muscle activity of each part to echo. This is different from the prancing and flashing in external boxing. It is not realized in the form of big flashing, big avoidance and tumbling and jumping, but in a less obvious movement change. At the same time, make eight postures (that is, lift the top, etc. ) conform to the rules and don't go out of shape in the change. Therefore, although "prancing" and "blitzkrieg" also belong to human posture, they are also the link between the eight regulations and the four criteria. The combination of prancing and hip wrapping can make the lower limbs move roundly and evenly, make the leg muscles soft, and make the lower limbs light and agile (the lower limbs can relax, and the exertion will enter an advanced level). Blitzkrieg: The combination of ribs, chest and waist can move extremely freely, only making the whole body and upper limbs rotate around in harmony. In a word, the rules of ten postures are interrelated and help each other to form a complete posture, so it can show complex and meticulous movements such as relaxation, slowness, rotation and harmony.

Supplement: (3) This action also has its special significance. Wang Zongyue's "On the Biography of Taiji" said: "After four or two sentences, it is obviously impossible to win by force; Looking at the royal family, what can be done quickly? " This points out the characteristics of Tai Ji Chuan's attack and defense. To achieve this goal, we must accurately grasp the laws of physical mechanics and skillfully cultivate physiological reflex function. From using one's own power at will to using the other's power at will. The practice of this skill, on the one hand, should make the coordination of all parts of your own motor system-muscles, tendons and joints automatic; On the other hand, we should clearly feel the motivation and trend of external force (that is, the moment when the other party wants to move). Only in this way can we give full play to our subjective initiative and regard each other's strength as our own. This is the basic principle of winning more with less (four or two) and winning more with less (winning more with more); Ten posture rules and four action rules are based on practical experience; Understand the laws of physical mechanics and physiological reflex, and summarize effective training methods. Intertwine the ten rules and the four principles, so as to achieve certain laws, endless changes, continuous improvement of level and continuous enrichment of content. I said ten rules above, and now I will say four.

Four principles, the first is "loose". The role of relaxation is to make the striated muscles in all parts of your body consistent with consciousness, completely obey consciousness, and quickly decompose when dealing with the power of attack. The function of slowness is not only to master the correct posture, but also to deeply exercise the internal tissues of various parts of the sports system, so that joints, muscles and tendons can change direction instantly with tiny activities and concentrate their strength. Taiji legend "practice slowly, use quickly" is the truth. This is based on science and learning. Loose and slow blend, and there is softness in softness. The article does not talk about softness. The role of the circle is to practice the stability and flexibility of the whole activity. The circle transmitted by Taiji is not only a circle in appearance, but also a circle with the same inside and outside. This is that the shape should be round and the gas should be round. It is the whole body's whole circle activity, which contains many complex small circles, corresponding to the whole circle of all parts of the body. Like a big ball containing a series of small beads, it has been circulating. This is the circle of Tai Chi Chuan. When an external force touches, it can tilt in contact, and the future force will be thrown away. Li Yishe said in "The Skills of Walking Fighters": "If you touch it, you can rotate freely, and if you are weak, you can only lead it to decline." This statement can accurately describe the offensive and defensive functions of Tai Ji Chuan's circular motion. Its training method is constantly improved on the basis of relaxation. Finally, talk about the role of sum. Harmony is the first three stages of skillful and harmonious movements, but there is still a big gap in attainments. For example, it is one kind of realm to reach the goal of "hanging over your head with light interests" in Song of Thirteen Potential, and it is another kind of realm to reach the goal of "being an official in Zhi Zhi and being eager to do things" in Master Zhuangzi. In short, it is conceivable that entering harmony will be purified step by step and become more and more pure.

Supplement: among the four action rules, first of all, we should pay attention to relaxation and slowness, which can reduce the waste of physical strength during exercise and increase the compactness and flexibility of Wushu application; Moreover, only when the four action rules are well done can the ten postures be made vivid. Whether for health preservation or martial arts, if you want to make great efforts, you must strictly abide by the rules of posture, based on the rules of action, and then go muddy. Some people only look at Tai Ji Chuan's form, but don't study it carefully, that is, they judge that Tai Ji Chuan only has the function of health preservation, but not the function of fighting and attacking. This is an incomprehension of the characteristics of Tai Ji Chuan. Tai Ji Chuan and yoga are two different things, but both emphasize "quietness".

Generally speaking, lesbians, I suggest you practice yoga.

Yoga can exercise bones and muscles and increase the flexibility of the body.
