This kind of "tiptoeing" is rubbing the internal organs every time (a health regimen that has been passed down for 800 years in traditional Chinese medicine)
Tiptoeing is an action that the whole body loves to love, it is not constrained by time and space, and it can bring benefits to the body anytime and anywhere. With a single tiptoe, you can mobilize 8 muscles in your legs. Tiptoeing is also a good aerobic exercise, which can help improve blood return to the lower limbs, increase the blood supply to the myocardium, and protect the cardiovascular system. Tiptoeing is an ancient form of health preservation, which was called the "heel method" in ancient times. In the "Book of Quotations" in the early Western Han Dynasty, there are records of "Dun Heel to Benefit the Chest" and "Dun Heel, one Dun Left, One Dun Right, Three Hundred Only". This exercise method is also used in the 800-year-old guided health technique "Baduanjin". The last form of Baduanjin "Seven Bumps and Hundreds of Diseases Behind" is to stimulate the human kidney meridian and induce the whole body to oscillate through the way of tiptoeing, so as to gently massage the five internal organs and six internal organs, and have the health effect of eliminating all diseases. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, there are three meridians from the toes and heels to the calves and inner thighs: the spleen meridian, the liver meridian and the kidney meridian, which are called the three yin meridians of the feet. Frequent tiptoeing can stimulate the three yin meridians of the feet, so that the qi and blood in the body run upward, and then warm and replenish the internal organs, stimulate the middle qi, and reconcile the qi and blood. The old roots of the tree are exhausted first, and the old legs of people are the first to decline. Tiptoe for 2~10 minutes every day, and the whole body will benefit. 1. Strengthen muscles The
legs are known as the "second heart" of the body, and tiptoeing helps to develop the strength of the calf muscles, lengthen the plantar muscles and ligaments, improve balance, prevent falls, and increase tolerance when standing, walking, running and jumping. 2. Protect the heart Venous return requires pressure from muscle movement to push. Each time the calf muscles contract, the amount of blood squeezed out is roughly equivalent to the amount of blood ejected from one ventricle when the heart beats. Tiptoeing can promote blood return in the lower limbs, supply enough oxygen to the heart muscle, and benefit cardiovascular health. 3. Nourish kidney qi When tiptoeing, the forefoot is forced, and the anterior medial ball of the foot and the big toe of the foot play a supporting role. There are three meridians on the inside of the foot: the kidney meridian, the liver meridian, and the spleen meridian, and often tiptoe to dredge the meridians, control the qi upward, and replenish the kidney and strengthen the foundation. 4. Prevent joint pain When sitting, blood circulation around the joints slows down, muscle activity in the lower limbs is basically turned off, and the rate of metabolism decreases by 50%. Frequent tiptoeing can help enhance the stability of the ankle joint, prevent varicose veins in the lower limbs, and prevent stiffness and soreness in the knee joint. 5. Prevent hemorrhoids If tiptoe is combined with anal and buttock lifting, it can also prevent the occurrence of hemorrhoids. Essentials of movement: inhale and levator anus when lifting the foot; Exhale and relax your anus as you land. 6. Stimulate plantar fascia Tiptoeing is a proper massage and stimulation of the heel to prevent the degeneration of the calcaneal pad and promote the formation of a new protective pad. According to the holographic and reflex theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the heel is the reproductive reflex area of the human body, and the stretching and vibration generated by tiptoeing also help to maintain the corresponding organs. The
correct posture of tiptoeing lifts the
heel and then falls, so that the heel shakes the ground rhythmically:when lifting the heel, the body stands naturally, the arms naturally droop, the feet are slightly together, the heels are lifted, and after feeling the maximum touch, maintain balance, at this time the calves are tense, and the movement stops for two seconds. When you land, your heels drop slightly, and when you are about to get close to the ground, you will shake your body slightly. After the action is proficient, it can be combined with the levator ani exercise, that is, when lifting the foot, slowly inhale and lift the anus to close the abdomen; As you settle down, exhale slowly and relax your perineum. You can do it once a day in the morning and evening, and the tiptoe frequency is controlled at 2~3 seconds once, each time lasts for 1~5 minutes, and you can feel the soles of your feet hot. When the elderly first start practicing, they can hold on to the windowsill, railing, etc. to avoid falling, and then get out of the handrail to practice after they are proficient. The
tiptoe movement is very simple, in addition to standing on tiptoe, practicing while sitting and lying on the walk, it can help to reap the health effect. While walking Stand on tiptoe, walk 30~50 steps each time, take a short break, and repeat a few more sets according to your physical condition. The speed is self-adjustable, so you can feel comfortable. If you can't maintain your balance at the beginning, you can do it with a wall. While sitting The two legs are differentiated, the upper and lower legs are vertical, tiptoe or hook the toes vigorously, repeat 30~50 times. Two bottles of mineral water can be placed on your lap for weight-bearing exercises, and the speed can be adjusted by yourself. In order to avoid falling, it is not recommended to walk on tiptoe, and can choose to sit or lie down to practice. When lying down Lie flat, stretch your legs together, hook your toes, do it with both feet, or do it on one foot. 20~30 times each time, 2~4 times a day. Lying on tiptoe, also known as ankle pump exercise, can help promote blood circulation, reduce swelling of the lower limbs, and prevent venous thrombosis in the lower limbs. When urinating For women, the strengthening of pelvic floor muscles means an increase in sexual sensation and help to achieve orgasm. For men with chronic prostatitis and an enlarged prostate, tiptoeing while urinating can also help make urination easier. If you can do such tiptoe exercises five or six times a day, for a month or half a year or so, you can achieve a better fitness effect.
