Yoga, fitness or hurting people?

The debate over yoga has arisen again on the Internet, mainly over whether yoga exercise is harmful to the body or healthy. There is a saying called: The more debate, the clearer it becomes. In both positive and negative aspects, Xiaobian saw that people were arguing for reasons, and there were fewer purely abusive speeches. It seems that with the improvement of people's quality and the openness of their minds, the Internet atmosphere has improved to a certain extent.

There are many places where you can practice yoga in Guangzhou, and I believe many people are also very interested in this exotic physical exercise activity. However, I have to admit that everything has two sides, which may not be applicable to everyone, and sometimes it can be "too much". Here is a collection of some netizens 'discussions on yoga to see which side you support?

Zheng Fang:

Yoga includes stretching, strength, endurance and exercises to strengthen heart and lung functions. It promotes physical health, coordinates the functions of the entire body, and learns how to make the body function healthily while also increasing the vitality of the body. In addition, cultivating a state of spiritual harmony and emotional stability also guides you to improve your physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual states, keep your body in balance and maintain health.

Viewpoint 1: The purpose of fitness is to change the condition of the body and make your body feel comfortable. No matter what exercise you do, you must do it within your ability. Yoga does not require everyone to practice it to a very difficult degree. After all, it is a sport that does not require any equipment. If you take it slowly according to your own situation, how can you get injured?

Viewpoint 2: Smart people will find good yoga instructors. Just as students are willing to go to prestigious schools and listen to lectures from famous teachers, there are also teachers in schools who mislead children. Therefore, yoga itself cannot be denied as a whole just because there are individual yoga instructors who are qualified.

Viewpoint 3: I often sit and work on the computer, and my cervical spine has always been uncomfortable. When I took the postgraduate exam at the end of the year before last, I took the exam all day long and kept writing with my head down. Therefore, after each exam, my neck would hurt for many days, especially in the first few days. I felt like I couldn't straighten up, but I was very busy at work and couldn't use the computer, which made matters worse. Later, I practiced yoga with my friends for three consecutive months, and then I went to practice whenever I had time. The problems in my cervical spine and neck improved bit by bit, and now I no longer have neck pain due to frequent computer use. So I think practicing yoga is still very beneficial.

Opposition:

An industry insider said,"There are very big mistakes in yoga itself, and there are fundamental mistakes and misleading directions in the theoretical foundation and methods. If I tell the truth to my members, I will hurt the coaches who rely on it for a living. Those female coaches are teaching others with injuries. Yoga is a lose-lose choice." Some medical experts have also confirmed the harm of some yoga poses on the spine.

Viewpoint 1: Anything will be good if it is moderate, but it will go bad if it exceeds the measure. However, yoga now has too heavy commercial components. hype is greater than fitness...

Viewpoint 2: Everything has a degree. Too much is not enough. There are too many yoga in society nowadays. Many of those coaches are halfway through the school, and very few people truly understand sports knowledge. How can I practice correctly with these coaches?

Viewpoint 3: Nature is designed, and the human body is only suitable for certain bends. If abnormal bending is forcibly performed, the body may adapt, but permanent damage will definitely occur. Exercise, running, walking, mountain climbing and skipping rope are all good. Why should we pursue trends and do things that are harmful and costly? Sometimes it's just people's vanity that thinks practicing yoga is trendy and high-end.

Postscript: Benevolent people see benevolence, wise people see wisdom. Everything has two sides. For example, computers have been born. Its birth has changed the working and living style of mankind for thousands of years and made human civilization take a big step forward. However, at the same time, it can harm people's health due to radiation; for example, drugs can cure diseases, but they also have side effects... The key is how people understand and treat them. But one thing is very clear: people will never give up food because of choking, let alone stop moving forward. Only by moving forward through constant summary and exploration can yoga, an ancient cultural heritage, last long and benefit future generations. (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
