Many middle-aged men pay great attention to health care, but few people know how middle-aged men should take care of themselves. While blindly maintaining health care, it is important to cultivate yang and protect qi in response to the condition that most middle-aged men become obese.
"Lingshu" records: "When yang qi is insufficient and yin qi is surplus, bowel cramps and abdominal pain in the cold... are modulated in the Zusanli acupoint. In summer, maintaining yang qi can be replenished by regularly pressing and rubbing the Zusanli acupoint. This acupoint is located 3 inches ahead of the outer knee, 1 transverse finger from the anterior tibial ridge, and on the anterior tibial muscle. When selecting acupoints, measure 4 transverse fingers downward from the outer knee eye, and between the fibula and the tibia, measure 1 transverse finger from the side of the tibia. This is where.
Recently, due to the high temperature and rainy weather, the human body's yang qi is vulnerable to damage, and the body's moisture increases, resulting in more irritability. Experts recommend practicing three fitness techniques to relieve discomfort.
Yangyang Massage Zusanli
As the weather gets hotter and the summer heat becomes more pathogenic, sweat excretion will also accelerate. According to traditional Chinese medicine, "Qi falls off with sweat," while "Qi is the source of yang," and the body's yang qi will also be damaged. In addition, on hot days, people are greedy for cold, such as blowing air conditioners, eating cold drinks, and so on. They are more susceptible to the evil of cold and dampness and damaging the yang.

The commonly used method is to press and rub the Zusanli acupoint with the thumb: apply the finger surface of the thumb to the Zusanli acupoint, apply vertical force, press downward, and press to rub it. The other four fingers clench or open their fists to support each other and work together. Allow the stimulation to fully reach the deep layers of muscle tissue, producing feelings of soreness, numbness, bloating, pain, and movement. After a few seconds, gradually relax, and repeat the operation several times.
Practicing bear drama to strengthen the spleen and remove dampness
Due to increased rainfall and humid air, various skin diseases such as beriberi, eczema, sweat spots, wet skin diseases, and tinea pedis are prone to occur. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the occurrence of these skin diseases is related to sultry and humid weather, with the main pathogenic factor being the severity of humidity. So, how can we simply and effectively remove dampness?
According to experts, removing dampness in traditional Chinese medicine can be achieved by strengthening the spleen. Because the spleen dominates the circulation of dampness, it likes dryness and detests dampness. If trapped by dampness, the circulation of dampness becomes abnormal, manifested by loose stools, fullness of the abdomen, lack of appetite, and belching and swallowing acid. The pathogenesis is that dampness is trapped in the spleen, so it is necessary to strengthen the spleen and remove dampness. "The bear play in the Five Birds Play is a good exercise for strengthening the spleen and stomach, aiding digestion, and activating joints.".
The main moves are as follows: Lie on your back, hold your calves with both hands, raise your head, roll your body to the left first (preferably with a blanket on a clean floor or home floor), then roll to the right, rolling 7 times each.
Then bend your knees and squat deeply on the ground, pressing your hands on the ground beside you, shaking your upper body seven times, each side left and right.
When practicing bear drama, you should be as thick and calm as a bear.
The bear looks heavy and walks softly, but in fact it is calm and nimble.
