Chinese medicine health care emphasizes prevention as the mainstay, progressive in exercise, follow your body's condition, repeated practice, step by step, do not overdo exercise at once.

Modern fitness focuses on being strong and building muscle, pursuing diverse, high-intensity and efficient exercise methods, including aerobic exercise, strength training, physical training, etc., with a scientific nutritional diet and adequate rest, with the goal of enhancing physical fitness and improving face value.
