Fitness and defense functions of Chen's Taijiquan

The ancient famous saying "No accounts" is recorded in the LV's spring and autumn, which is widely spread among Chinese people, this shows that our people have long understood the role of "Sports" in strengthening physical constitution to prevent and control diseases. Chen Shou, an ancient Chinese historian, recorded the "five birds" created by huaduo in "Three Kingdoms Wei Shu-huaduo Biography". it refers to the movements of the tiger, deer, bear, ape, and Bird used to move the joints to prevent the disease from prolonged.

The ancient Chinese Taoism's "sit-in" and "Guidance" techniques are the ways of health care. "Su Wen-yi fa Fang Yi theory" said: "The people eat less than work, so its disease is more than the weak and cold hot, the treatment should be guided by the" Yi ." "Su Wen-ancient naive theory" also said: "You have nothing to worry about, you are really angry with it, keep yourself in mind, and be patient ." This fully demonstrates that "exercise" and "quiet" are health preserving from different perspectives to achieve the physiological effects of physical therapy.

Since ancient times, there have been many types of health care techniques, each with its own characteristics. The Taijiquan summarizes the essence of the various health care techniques of the predecessors. It integrates the yin and yang theory to melt the exercise into the quiet, and the static is better than the exercise. This kind of clever combination of motion and quiet produces the coordination of the inner spirit, the shape, the thinking and the action, the speed and the slowness, the opening and the releasing, the splitting and the combination, and other actions and spirits. In this way, the mind can be relaxed, the physical organs can be exercised, the vitality is born, the zongqi is filled, the essence is protected, and the body is strong.

(1) fitness functions of Taijiquan

1. Improve the inhibition process of the nervous system and eliminate the impact of focal feedback. The role of the nervous system is to regulate the functional activities of all organs throughout the body and maintain the integrity and unity of the body to adapt to the needs of changes in the external environment. In Taijiquan, qingjing intends to "keep Dan Tian", which is a technique of meditation. This kind of static power can increase the control capability of self-idea, thus generating the transmission of signal mechanisms to prevent the cause of lesions feedback, correcting the vicious circle of focal feedback, inhibiting the disease development, and improving the health level. Don't worry about it. Observing Dantian is the foundation of inner encouragement and the condition for perseverance. Perseverance is the guarantee of practicing boxing. if you exercise persistently, you can coordinate from the inner to the shape. Make the air sink to Dan Tian, run through the tail, and the circulation around the body, so that the viscera is full, the body is well maintained, energetic, is conducive to the repair of lesions and mental trauma, it is conducive to recovery of the body and mental maintenance. Out of its ability to promote functional improvement of brain nerve cells, it coordinates the process of excitement and inhibition and coordinates mental trauma and neurological diseases, such as neurasthenia, it has a good preventive effect.

2. enhance cardiac function, improve microcirculation system, expand lung activity, and improve gas exchange ability. The blood is responsible for the nutrition of various tissues and organs around the body, but the heart is the driving force of blood operation, and the capillary is the place for material exchange of microcirculation. A person who has been practicing boxing has a heart rhythm of about 60 times per minute. This slow heart rate due to prolonged exercise can delay the relaxation of the heart, enable the myocardial to be fully rested, and strengthen the myocardial contraction, the output increases, improving the working ability of the heart.

Persistent exercise, circulation of internal gas, relaxation of the body, and enhancement of microcirculation function are conducive to the exchange of substances inside and outside the capillary, promote the oxygen utilization rate of the tissue, reduce the accumulation of creatine, and reduce fatigue, secondary disease recovery, especially for chronic coronary heart disease, high blood fat disease, atherosclerosis have a better role in the prevention and treatment.

Lung is a place for gas exchange, and breathing in the kidney is an important condition for gas exchange. Kidney gas, then the gas Shen Dan Tian, kidney gas is not up and breathing chest. The breathing mode of Taijiquan requires a deep and soft breathing mode. It can increase the activity of diaphragm and abdominal muscles and regulate the respiratory function of the intercostal muscles, increase the tension between the lung and thoracic muscles, and increase the vital volume, increase the contact area between the alveolar and capillary walls, and enhance the oxygen and carbon dioxide dispersion ability. After Long-term exercise, the breathing frequency can be reduced and the effect of breathing can be enhanced. The specific manifestation is that "sweat is not breathing" during boxing ". He has a certain role in the prevention and treatment of chronic emphysema, and is suitable for the prevention and treatment of various chronic lung lesions.

3. Strengthen muscles, improve the physical and chemical properties of bones, and smooth the channels and channels, which is conducive to the passage of Jingwei qi and blood. The method of exercise in Taijiquan is to do nothing. From the inner to the shape of the change, from the inner six organs to the limbs, all in "motion. The spiral motion and uplink and downlink variation of the folding wire. The combination of internal and external speed and speed, the festival and all the movements are integrated. From the viscera to the body tissue, the joint ligament and the tendon sheath muscle group get activity and exercise. Over time, the muscles are full and the bones are strong, improving the physical and chemical properties of the bones and improving the bending, compression, bending, and dislocation resistance of the bones. It has a good preventive effect on Joint Diseases of the elderly (stiff joints, inaccessibility of walking and sitting, weakness of knee and knee, weakness of flexion and extension, and bone hyperplasia.

The meridian is a channel for qi and blood to run, and whether the human body is healthy or not is closely related to whether the menstruation is smooth or not. To a certain extent, those who practice Taijiquan have a feeling of fever in the lower abdomen, swelling at the ends of the limbs, and numbness. TCM acupuncture and moxibustion believes that this phenomenon is a manifestation of "getting angry", that is, the ability to mobilize internal Qi, break through the channels, and run through Qi. Taijiquan sports, "dominated by waist", "virtual leading top strength", "Qi Shen Dan Tian", waist for the kidney, and also for the pulse around. Waist and ridge movements drive the body, row at Fingers, row at four ends, and return to Dantian. Dan Tian is a part of the lower abdomen, Ren du pulse is a source of three Qi, out of the perineum, re irrigation of the scriptures. Long-term exercise; can make the kidney vigorous, with pulse filling, Yin and Yang reconciliation, God clear eyes.

"Zhongzheng in the end" is the essentials of Taiji. This is the foundation to stabilize itself and strengthen strength. In the yundun, the "virtual top strength" and the "tail zhongzheng" are connected to the "Baihui points" and "Zhangqiang points", which is conducive to the smooth flow of the supervision Meridian. Baihui and Zhangqiang are the main points of supervision. After Qi passes through this point, they will be able to lift up the gas, enhance the ligament, and expand the muscle function. Therefore, it has a good therapeutic and preventive effect on anal prolapse, hemorrhoids, and uterine sagging.

As mentioned above, "tail zhongzheng" and "virtual leading strength" are conducive to the operation of Ren Mai and Du Mai Jing Qi. Ren is the Yin of the sea, the total one of the YIN Meridian (hand and foot three YIN Meridian), the governor for the Yang of the sea, the governor of the YANG Meridian (hand and foot three YANG Meridian ). Inline channels to smooth the process. In addition, "Qi Shen Dan Tian, spiral winding", from the inside to the outside, from the body to the ends of the limbs, can be a special movement, "The Valley Gas to disappear, blood flow, the disease cannot be born. "(huaduo Chuan ). Of course, it is not an overnight task to prevent disease and exercise well. On the basis of correct actions, you can persistently exercise hard, regardless of whether you are a man or a child, and you will receive the effects of preventing disease and improving your life.

(2) martial arts of Taijiquan

Chen's Taijiquan not only has a good fitness method, but also has a mysterious martial art. The Chinese martial arts is characterized by a wide range of martial arts, defense techniques, and strengths. However, Chen's Taijiquan is unique and remains unique for more than three hundred years. It is centered on region, region, squeeze, crop, harvest, crop, elbow, and depend, on the basis of touch, sticking, connection, and accompanying, the attacker will capture, take, throw, slide, beat, and fall. It will become one of the best boxing techniques in the martial arts industry.

Exercise Chen's Taijiquan For three years, one small success, nine years one big success, practice high kung fu, can go around a family, with a static brake, to rest on behalf of work, to remain unchanged and should be done, can also get the opportunity, has been from the people, adapt to the situation and use it flexibly. "Pushing Song" cloud: "We need to take it seriously, and it is difficult to attach people around us. The great power of the people is hitting me, which affects the huge amount of money ."

Pushing Hands can not only check whether the posture is correct, but also a good way to exercise martial arts skills. Some people say: "If you have the skills to push a hand, you can win ." The boxing theory says: "There are a lot of technical advantages. Although there are some differences, it's almost nothing more than strong or weak, so it's slow and easy to get ears. Strong weakness, slow hands, and fast hands, are inherent in nature, not close to learning and promising. Observing the sentence of two hundred thousand jin, it is not a force winner. How can this mean ?" It can be seen that the promotion is not a comparison between strength and skill. "Strong, weak, slow, and fast" is a natural instinct, not a skill function. The so-called skill is to adapt to nature to restrain nature, to "weak strong, slow wins fast ". In nature, the lever pivot and the principle of spiral conversion have the "four or two sets of thousands" function. Push Hands use this principle, you can rub-cut gravity, this is the power. With this kind of effort, you can reduce the workload. At the same time, the exercise of Taijiquan uses centrifugal force and uses the waist and ridge as the central axis, so that all actions go through the inner ring. Although the speed of walking through the inner ring is slow, it can still be better than walking through the outer ring quickly, this is the reason for the "post-development, first generation" and the key to "Slow victory.

Boxing theory is a classic book on the theory of Taijiquan. It is also a good guide for pushing hands. You can get twice the result with half the effort by carefully studying its content and using it to guide the practice. So how can we guide pushing hands? The following four basic principles shall be observed:

1. The theory of boxing said: "The Taiji is born without limit, the power of static and dynamic, and the mother of yin and yang; the power of motion is separated, and the power of silence is combined ." The term "Tai Chi" in ancient times is a symbolic unity of opposites and a hub for all movements and movements: the yin and yang of Tai Chi are born, such as shun inverse, soft gang, light sink, virtual reality, and co-opening all belong to this. The centrifugal force and centripetal force are fully utilized during exercise. Therefore, the animation is divided into static and combination, which is divided into yang and combination as Yin. Chen Xin said: "Tai Chi and the sun are both the yin and yang of heaven and earth. It is just soft ." This rule is used. This kind of contradiction exists in the whole process of pushing hands, and is always in the Process of every action. Therefore, the first basic principle of pushing hands is to conform to the contradictory Law of the movement of things, that is, "Opening and Closing yin and yang ".

2. When pushing hands, the two sides set up their hands to practice, which is also a process of constant conflict and conflict resolution. As mentioned in boxing theory, "You can never get too late and stretch as you bend ." The following four points must be met:

(L) It must be "no", or "no", or "no ";
(2) It must be "performance", or "viscosity", or "plaque disease ";
(3) It must be "Sui Qu". Sui Qu is referred to as "Lian Jin", and Sui Qu is referred to as "loss of illness ";
(4) It must be "stretched out", that is, "with strength", and stretched out too early as "disease resistance ".

All the processes of Pushing Hands require four features: "touch, stick, connect, and follow", and no "Top plaque loss resistance. Chen Xin said: "stick together with me, will concentrate on God, transport me imaginary spirit, mi Jia weight ." Therefore, the second basic principle is "stick with adhesion ".

3. the boxing theory says: "When a person is just walking with me, I will be able to stick it. When a person is in a hurry, he will be in a hurry. When a person is in a slow state, he will be able to slow down. Even if the change is ten thousand ends, the logic is consistent." This is to achieve four goals and avoid four problems. That is to say, people are just soft, and they are guided by "going". This is a "rolling" application in a passive situation. At the same time, in order to ask for strength, the use of good momentum and strength, forcing the other party to become "back", converted to I am soft, with sticks to force it. When you stick it away, the other party is in a rush, and the slowdown slows down. In this way, there will be four failures without four diseases. Chen Xin said: "Before, after, and after the four sides, the transfer is agile and the priority will be met ." Therefore, the third basic principle is "quick and slow sticking ".

4. The theory of boxing said: "Although it is not a long time to work, it cannot be suddenly connected ." After mastering the first three basic principles in pushing hands, you can understand the strength and direction of the person, and test the strength and direction of the person. At this time, the trusted hand should, to achieve the automatic "God" realm. This is the result of years of repeated speculation, practice, and theoretical research. Therefore, the fourth basic principle is "integration of knowledge and practice ".

The theory of boxing said: "the strength of the title is strong, and the strength of the power is heavy. The power is not balanced, and the power is suddenly invisible. The weight on the left is false, and the weight on the right is right, those who look up are high, those who fall down are deep, and the longer they go in, the longer they go back. One feather cannot be added, and the fly flies cannot fall. People don't know me, I know only people; heroes are invincible." Therefore, in order to use the four basic principles, the following six points must be done according to the above-mentioned boxing theory:

1. If the top strength is to be desired, the spirit will be raised naturally. At the same time, the spirit will go down and relax. Due to the body sinking, even if the body is prolonged, elasticity becomes intense. Chen Xin said: "The road is lingering, the road is still far from panic, and the skin section is open everywhere ." If your health is stiff, you will lose your stamina, and you will not be able to understand your strength through touch, stick, connection, or on demand.

2. Standing up must be in the spirit of being comfortable and supporting the eight sides, so that when pushing a hand, the body is not biased on one side or dependent on the other side of the skill, so as to avoid your own strength to be known, if you are on one side, it is not easy to smoothly use the adhesive.

3. In the spirit of implicit and soft, explicit is just the premise, the push should have a sudden and implicit rigid-flexible change, this is the performance of constant questioning in the process of understanding.

4. When pushing a hand, the two hands should have a false or false situation, and both hands should be divided up and down to form a punishment of yin and yang, where there is a false or false situation everywhere. Chen Xin said: "Both the real and the real worlds are achieved, and suddenly the real world is hidden. In reality, there are virtual reality, and people are involved; in the virtual reality, there are real and familiar with the test authorities ." After the transformation of the virtual reality, as long as you pay attention to one hand, the other one hand and two feet due to the uplink and downlink with, naturally can be flexibly converted. Therefore, Chen Xin said: "One day in qiangu, the most reasonable cycle, the upstream and downstream, can not be empty talk ." This is the basis for inquiry, exploration, and understanding.

5. The other party's admiration is so high that the center of gravity is lost because of the unattainable feeling. The more the other party falls down, the more powerful the other party is; the closer the other party is, the more virtual it becomes, the longer it is and the longer it feels. when the other party leaves, it sticks to the force to make it feel forced. This is in line with the touch, stick, connection, with the strength and strength of the requirements, this can avoid the occurrence of the top plaque loss four disease, so that the pushing skills quickly improve.

6. When pushing a hand, the spirit must be mentioned. In this way, the body can be passed through, and the spirit must be "a feather cannot be added. At the same time, the spiral filaments must also be constantly changed to form a "Fly worm cannot fall" momentum. If the action is delayed, it is hard to understand. If the motion is not entangled, it will lose strength, it also loses the force-binding technique of half-turning, half-turning, and half-turning. If you don't have the power, you will become a competitor. You can neither send nor send a letter, but you can neither send nor send a letter without a letter.

With the six functions listed above, we will be able to implement the four basic principles of pushing hands, to achieve the effort of understanding people and not understanding people, and to persistently work hard, the pushing skill can reach the advanced realm of perfection.
