What are the benefits of kites to health?

Winter goes and spring comes, snow melts and flowers bloom, and kites fly. At the moment, the kite-flying people are paying off and winding, leaning forward and backward, running and marching, walking slowly and rushing, relaxing and alternating, combining motion and static, and coordinating hands, brains and eyes, which is enviable. Medical experts told reporters that flying kites is a combination of fitness and entertainment. When flying a kite, you need to exercise your whole body with your hands, wrists, elbows, arms, waist and legs. Since flying kites, all parts of the human body are constantly moving. When the kite rises or tilts, you need to run, pull the string and swing from side to side ... these actions can fully stretch the relevant parts of the body.

Many fitness experts also believe that because people live indoors for a long time in winter, they should do more outdoor sports when spring comes, which can speed up blood circulation, promote human metabolism and be beneficial to health.

It is reported that "kite rehabilitation therapy" has also been carried out abroad, which has achieved unexpected rehabilitation effects in the treatment of neurasthenia, mental depression, irritability, insomnia and forgetfulness, loss of appetite, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, children's developmental retardation and mental retardation. At the same time, it also has a good effect on adjusting vision, eliminating eye muscle fatigue and improving myopia.

This is also a brain-strengthening exercise. Only by properly handling the relationship between kite flying and wind direction and speed, can we let kite-flying people use their brains.

Know the wind direction and speed before flying a kite. If there are flags and kitchen smoke nearby, you can know the direction in which it floats. You can also pick up hay or throw some small pieces of paper into the air to measure the correct direction of the wind.

When the wind is full, pick up the kite string and run forward against the wind until you feel the tension of the kite string. The kite climbs up, then stops and slowly pays out the string.

When the wind is not enough, close the line quickly. If the kite has a downward trend, it is necessary to quickly withdraw part of the kite line until the kite can hold on in the sky and not fall.

After the kite flies stably, it can be tied to a tree trunk or an object to make it float. In the case of unstable wind direction, it must be manipulated at will.

When the wind suddenly turns strong, the kite swings and the inclination is too large, it will be in danger of overturning. At this time, there are two control methods: one is to pay off the line quickly, and the other is to run a few steps forward quickly, which can alleviate the swing strength. Sometimes the wind stops and the kite falls, so you have to shake it a few times or run backwards quickly. If you are in no way back, you can close the line quickly. When taking back the kite, try to stay away from the place where there are tall trees, so as not to hang the kite on the tree when it falls.

Safety tips

Never fly kites near airports, telephone poles, train tracks, tall buildings or during lightning strikes. If the kite string is broken for some reason, all the broken strings should be recycled, otherwise the broken string is likely to become a sharp weapon for others to hurt when walking or cycling. Finally, don't forget to wear a pair of fashionable sunglasses!
