How to breathe when you hit Tai Ji Chuan?

How to breathe when playing Tai Ji Chuan is as follows:

Abdominal breathing is natural breathing in a relaxed state. When inhaling, the lower abdomen gradually bulges, and when exhaling, the lower abdomen gradually retracts, such as when people lie flat or breathe at rest.

Its role in practice is that it is natural and effortless, and it is beneficial to fitness because of its smooth breath; There are many people who breathe in reverse abdomen. When inhaling, the abdomen contracts slightly, so that the lower abdomen is depressed, which has the function of strengthening and protecting swelling. When exhaling, the abdomen relaxes the bulge of the lower abdomen, which is beneficial to the strength of the abdomen, and the strength is natural and powerful.

Both of them are necessary for breathing and are used randomly during exercise. For example, from squeezing potential to pressing potential, when the center of gravity is in the back seat, it means that the abdomen is inhaled and the lower abdomen is contracted.

It uses the curl of the tail to naturally contract the abdomen to support the descent of the anus and lumbar spine, and plays the role of gaining strength and storing hair. Then push your hands forward, the body posture will change from abdomen to opening, and the elasticity generated by the reverse exhalation of the abdomen will be better.

In addition, the coordinated relationship between breathing and opening and closing should be breathing coordinated action, not action coordinated breathing. Breathing coordination can promote the effect of action, and then promote the quality of breathing.

The connotation of "Boxing Breathing" means that when Tai Ji Chuan walks, the actions such as "receiving, virtual, hiding, receiving and transforming" are inhaling, and the actions such as "opening, solid, sending, releasing and beating" are exhaling.
