August 8 is the 11th " National Fitness Day ". In the past decade, national fitness has become a new fashion, and many people are turning from "I want to exercise" to "I want to exercise". Outdoor playgrounds, parks and other public places and facilities have also become the first choice for everyone to exercise. So are your calories burning right? Have your exercise frequency met? Let’s take a look together!
2019 marks the tenth anniversary of the implementation of "National Fitness Regulations" . Over the past decade, the national fitness industry has developed rapidly, and is integrating into the lives of contemporary people and presenting a new era.
Fitness has become a new fashion
shuttlecock kicking, walking, jogging, square dance, ice hockey, marathon... The national fitness concept is deeply rooted in people's hearts, the project is in full swing, and the activities are rich and colorful. It can be said that since the birth of the first "National Fitness Day" on August 8, 2009, people's awareness of fitness and health has steadily improved over the past ten years, and national fitness exercises have blossomed everywhere. Physical exercise and daily fitness have become a living habit for people.
Street dance, show off your steps in your circle of friends, play basketball court at the village entrance, experience the charm of curling, and "lifting iron" in the gym... The in full swing fitness actions are integrating into contemporary life and becoming a new fashion. The group of people participating in fitness on a daily basis is extending from retirees to middle-aged and young people, and their exercise methods are gradually diversifying. It is worth mentioning that ice and snow sports have developed rapidly in recent years and are very popular. The "Survey on the National Ice and Snow Sports Mass Participation" of the China Survey and Data Center of Renmin University of China shows that more than 270 million people in participated in ice and snow sports.
From "I want me to exercise" to "I want to exercise"
"Healthy China Action (2019-2030)" proposes that regular participation in physical exercise refers to participating in physical exercise frequency 3 times or more per week, each physical exercise lasts 30 minutes or more, and the exercise intensity of each physical exercise reaches medium or more. Medium exercise intensity refers to 64%-76% of the maximum heart rate (220 minus last year's age) during exercise. The General Administration of Sports of China data shows that the proportion of the population in my country who regularly participates in physical exercise has reached 41.3%. In the interview, we found that whether it is "those who have met the standards long ago" or "those who are at a certain distance from the goal", everyone's expectations for having a healthy body have never stopped.

survey shows that more and more people have developed the habit of conscious exercise, and nearly 65% of respondents said that they exercise 3 times or more per week on average. Everyone has various fitness methods, and low-threshold fitness exercises have become an important way for people to relax and regulate their bodies. "Bank account numbers are good, and the body cannot be overdrawn", "Exercise for one day when you are young is equivalent to exercising for a year when you are old" and other health concepts of "preventing diseases before they occur" are being established.

Where to go fitness? Anywhere is OK!
With the idea of fitness, we need to consider where to exercise. There are more and more public fitness venues open, and free parks are being repaired better and better. Many people choose to go out of their homes and go to playgrounds, parks, swimming pools, gyms and other places to exercise. The survey shows that outdoor playgrounds, parks and other public places and facilities have become the first choice for the people, and "going to the park to exercise" has become the lifestyle of many people.

Among them, fitness trails are loved by residents for their convenience, good scenery and suitable for family mobilization. Many fitness trails are not only located in the beautiful natural landscape, but also mark the walking distance and record the number of fitness steps, attracting more and more people to actively participate in fitness activities. The "Implementation Plan for the One Million-Kilometre Fitness Trail Project" proposes that by to 2020, we must strive to complete the construction of about 300 kilometers of fitness trails in every county (city, district) across the country. respondents were very excited about this goal. They said, "In the future, you can often take your children on fitness trails, which can both exercise and connect with each other." "Professional fitness trails are much more comfortable than cement roads, and I hope the fitness trails will be longer."
gym is also favored by many urban residents. data shows that Shanghai, Beijing and Shenzhen are the three cities with the largest number of gyms. For many people in the workplace, fitness is a necessity, and gyms have become a way to connect white-collar workers in the workplace and fitness exercise. Some respondents said that "you will take time to go to the gym during lunch break", "going to the gym at night to release the pressure of the day", and "Although the gym is expensive, the fitness efficiency is high."

With the rise of Internet fitness services, smart devices such as fitness apps, smart bracelets, body fat scales and new smart gyms have emerged one after another, driving the transformation and upgrading of mass sports and fitness lifestyles.
"three two one", burn your calories
During the investigation, we found that "too lazy", "too tiring to work", and "not knowing how to exercise" are the main reasons why residents lack confidence and perseverance in fitness. In order to solve this problem, the respondents hope that the fitness venue will be closer to home and have a more updated facility. They also hope to have more professional fitness guidance and " exercise prescription " to choose the type of exercise, exercise intensity, duration, and exercise frequency for themselves, and formulate personalized exercise plans.

So, how to exercise scientifically and reasonably? We can refer to the "three two-one" exercise principle proposed by the " National Fitness Guide " of the General Administration of Sports, namely 3 exercise methods, 2 exercise intensity and 1 hour of exercise every day. Aerobic exercise, strength exercises and pulling exercises are three indispensable parts for a complete fitness.
At the moment when fitness action is in full swing, I hope everyone can move and everyone participates in fitness, just like the theme of this year's National Fitness Day - "Healthy China, you and I will walk with you."
