按著體質做運動
盛夏前夕特別多人的起心肝做運動,希望以最佳狀態迎接夏日。運動人做我又做,你有沒有想過哪種運動才適合自己?世上沒有哪一種運動為之最健康,健康之道是按自己體質選擇最適合自己的運動,選錯運動可能會越做越累,甚至造成勞損。中醫養生之道講究平衡,中醫古籍《黃帝內經》裡曾提及「形勞而不倦」,就是運動後最健康的狀態,意思是指身體疲累,但心卻不累,適當的運動不應該讓你體力透支及產生厭倦。
怎樣選擇適合自己的運動呢?首先要了解自己的體質,例如氣血虛弱的人不宜做過於耗汗及劇烈的運動,因為氣隨津脫,身體津液會隨著大汗而流失,反而會更虛弱;而氣滯、濕熱、痰濕體質人士則適宜做強度較大的運動,調整氣機,舒暢情志,亦可讓體內濕氣由汗排出體外。
氣虛、血虛、陽虛體質
宜:強度小的運動,如太極、步行、伸展運動等,注意要循序漸進
陰虛體質
宜:強度小的運動,如太極、步行、伸展運動等,注意不宜過份出汗,需及時補水
痰濕、濕熱、氣滯及血瘀體質
宜:強度大的運動,如游泳、跳繩、球類運動、器械健身等,藉著運動疏發肝氣,流汗有助排走體內濕氣。
