The pressure of modern life is increasing, so more and more people choose to exercise. Fitness is a good way to relax the body. It not only enhances the body's immunity, but also eliminates toxins from the body. People who exercise regularly have very beautiful body curves. Most of them pursue longevity and want to live longer. Since fitness is so effective, do people who exercise regularly live longer than those who don’t? According to insurance company statistics on 6,000 deceased athletes, the average life expectancy of athletes is only 50 years old, far lower than the average person's 70 years old. The main reason is overtraining. Most bodybuilders die from heart disease and kidney problems, which are not all directly caused by the use of banned drugs. Long-term heavy weight training and insufficient aerobic training, as well as excessive weight and too much muscle mass, and high-protein diet are all factors that cause physical illness! There are many examples of ordinary people getting hurt due to exercise. For example, there was a Mr. Li who developed "soy sauce urine" due to excessive running and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment and was out of danger; there was also an elderly woman, Ms. Huang, who was hospitalized for treatment because she damaged her knees due to daily square dancing. We cannot deny that exercise does contribute to physical health, but everyone's situation is different. We cannot exercise blindly, but must proceed step by step and exercise scientifically according to our own situation. The ancients believed that a good balance between movement and rest is the key to longevity. Hua Tuo pointed out: "People want to work, but they should not push themselves to the extreme." This means that people should move more, but should not work to the point of extreme exhaustion. Sun Simiao also said: "Always try to do some light exertion, but don't overexert yourself or force yourself to do things that are beyond your ability to bear." This means that you can move around frequently, but don't overexert yourself or force yourself to do things that are beyond your ability to bear. Therefore, young people can do fitness or running, but they must pay attention to their body's ability to withstand it and not put pressure on themselves. For the elderly, gentler exercises such as Tai Chi may be more suitable. If you really want to dance square dance, you must also consider whether your body can withstand it. Some people may say, what? I've been running for more than ten years and it's fine! Or someone might say, I have been doing fitness for seven or eight years, and I haven’t suffered from kidney deficiency or heart disease? Everyone's physique is different. Some people have been smoking for decades and are in good health, while others die of cancer after only four or five years. Do everything within your ability and don't always think that you are the best. To prolong your life, you must pay attention to details and not do anything that is harmful to your body. In everything, excess is as bad as deficiency. If one adheres to the doctrine of the mean and conducts oneself, even if one is not quite right, he will not be far off. After all, China is an ancient civilization with a 5,000-year-old culture. The wisdom of the ancients is still very meaningful in real life. Learning the health-preserving methods of the ancients can help us avoid going astray. The ancients said that the greatest blessing is longevity. I hope each of us can have both good fortune and longevity. |
