Traditional Chinese medicine fitness refers to a subject that studies the specific methods and mechanisms of traditional fitness under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory, as well as its functions, characteristics and application laws in physical fitness, health care and disease prevention and rehabilitation.
The pursuit of health has never stopped. With the progress of society and the development of science, people pay more and more attention to TCM fitness. Advocating health and participating in fitness has become a fashion for human beings to pursue civilized life. As a result, at the end of the 20th century, many Chinese medicine schools all over the country have successively set up Chinese medicine fitness courses.
Chinese medicine fitness has a long history, is an ancient and young Chinese medicine discipline, and has great development prospects. According to "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals", "At the beginning of the Kang family's past, Yin qi stagnated and accumulated ... The people were depressed and stagnant, and their bones and muscles could not shrink, so they pretended to dance."
It can be seen that in the primitive society, my ancestor Zhou has created the introductory technique of preventing and treating joint diseases to enhance physical fitness. During the Warring States Period, Zhuangzi deliberately pointed out more clearly: "Breathe, get rid of the old and get new, and the bear reaches over the bird only for longevity. The person who leads the way, the person who raises the shape, the test of Peng Zushou. "
Characteristics of textbook compilation:
In order to improve the teaching quality and meet the needs of current Chinese medicine fitness teaching, clinical and scientific research, with the support of state administration of traditional chinese medicine Textbook Office, we organized several Chinese medicine colleges to compile this Chinese medicine fitness textbook.

On the basis of the combination of systematicness and wholeness, we should pay attention to the times of TCM fitness, that is, to meet the needs of the times.
