Can anyone tell me anything about Tai Chi?

The 24-style Taijiquan, also known as simplified Taijiquan, was organized by the State Sports Commission (now the State General Administration of Sports) in 1956 to organize Taijiquan experts to absorb the essence of Yang's Taijiquan. Although it only has 24 movements, compared with the traditional Tai Chi routines, its content is more concise, the movements are more standardized, and it can also fully reflect the movement characteristics of Tai Chi.

As a beginner in Taijiquan and has just learned Taijiquan, then beginners in Taijiquan should pay attention to:

Precautions for Tai Chi 1: Adequate preparation.

Quiet places: In spring, summer, and autumn, it is best to be in courtyards, corridors, parks, woods, rivers, empty fields and other places with fresh air and quiet, and it is best to be in indoor venues in winter.

Ventilation and shelter: Avoid practicing in an air-conditioned and closed environment, and do not exercise in a courtyard filled with soot and dirty air, and keep the air fresh. When practicing Tai Chi outdoors, avoid wind, wind, fog and rain.

Loose clothing: Shirts and pants should not be worn too tightly, and trouser belts should be buttoned up widely; Shoes should be comfortable to wear, not too tight or too loose.

Preparatory activities: Be sure to do preparatory activities before exercising, such as stretching, bending, squatting, etc., otherwise it is easy to cause sprains, bruises, fractures, etc.

Precautions for Tai Chi 2: Posture and movements should be correct and standardized.

The basic requirements of Tai Chi posture are the strength of the void spirit, the chest and back, the waist and hips, the shoulders and elbows, the wrists and wrists, and the tail Yan Zhongzheng. If the movements are not standardized during the practice, it will not only affect your performance, but also affect your inner feelings.

The standard Taijiquan technique requires the dantian, the round crotch and the hips, the inner drum and the outer safety, the movement such as the drawing, the step such as the cat, all kinds of basic technical actions to achieve the starting point accurately, the running route is clear, the stop point is in place, the action is coherent, the upper and lower follow, the hand and eye cooperation, so that the body is free.

Precautions for Tai Chi 3: Appropriate amount of exercise.

Although Tai Chi is not as intense as gymnastics and other long boxing exercises, it still has a certain amount of exercise because it requires slow motion under the condition that the upper and lower limbs are bent to a certain extent, and it requires a high degree of concentration and unity inside and outside the body. In particular, the amount of exercise in the lower limbs is relatively large.

Tai Chi, on the one hand, requires the legs to distinguish between the virtual and the real, and the weight is often borne by one leg, and this leg supports the weight when the knee joint is bent; On the other hand, the transition from one posture to another and the shift of the center of gravity from one leg to the other requires slow and long time, which greatly increases the load on the lower limbs. Therefore, after practicing "Simplified Tai Chi" once or twice, beginners often feel soreness in their legs, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. Keep practicing, and this leg soreness will disappear.
