Exercise Prescription for the Elderly Based on TCM Physique Characteristics of Sub-healthy Group

Abstract

There are three states of human body health: healthy, sub-healthy, and diseased. These three states are gradually transitioning. For a long time, people only pay attention to the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of diseases, ignoring the research on sub-health. "Preventive treatment of disease" is an important prevention and treatment thought in Chinese medicine for thousands of years. Actively implementing the "prevention first" policy, and conducting research on identification and intervention of sub-health conditions under the theme of "preventive treatment of disease" carries important practical significance for preventing and treating diseases, saving health resources, and improving the life quality of the elderly. By analyzing TCM physique characteristics of the sub-healthy groups and based on the theory of TCM physique identification and conditioning, this study takes the sub-healthy elderly as the research object, and develops a sub-health exercise prescription with traditional Chinese sports as the main approach, aiming to promote health outcomes of the elderly sub-healthy population through exercise conditioning
