In the “family Gym” of more than 10 square meters, simple fitness equipment such as treadmills, spinning bikes, parallel bars, thrusters, dumbbells and so on filled the room
.
After decades of continuous exercise, Zhong Nanshan seems to be much younger than his actual age, and there are no audio-visual impairment, slow reaction, memory decline, waist and leg pain and other problems that the elderly often have
.
Now I can still undertake my daily work, which is related to insisting on physical exercise It matters a lot
.
Exercise plays a key role in physical health and keeps people young
.
“The sport I used to do was middle distance running
.
His muscles were visible
.
You can do 10 pull ups at a time
.
Hale and hearty, full of energy and passion, he seems to be less than 60 years old, which is due to his decades of continuous exercise
.
It can be said that I know a lot about the marathon itself
.
” Zhong Nanshan once expressed his concern and love for running and even marathon in an interview
.
The length of a person’s life mostly does not depend on aging and disease, but on a normal lifestyle
.
“Exercise plays a key role in physical health and can keep people young.” Up to now, Zhong Nanshan still insists on exercising more than three times a week for about an hour each time after his busy work of daily medical treatment, outpatient service, ward round, consultation and scientific research
.
In Zhong Nanshan’s family gym, the use rate of treadmill is the highest – every time he exercises, Zhong Nanshan puts on a sports vest, first walks and jogs on the treadmill, and then carries out other training processes
.
According to academician Zhong Nanshan, exercise, like eating, is a part of life – the main purpose of strength training is muscle function, while the maintenance and improvement of cardiopulmonary function need endurance training
.
To this end, academician Zhong Nanshan also proposed that running is one of the best ways to improve the physical fitness and resistance of office workers and young students
.
“I don’t feel that age has much influence on me.” due to busy work and tight time, nowadays, Zhong Nanshan exercises are all carried out at home
.
In his not spacious home, Li Shaofen, Zhong Nanshan’s wife and former member of the National Women’s basketball team, specially arranged a simple gym for him
.
“I haven’t run a full or half marathon myself, but I often run about 5km.” Although sports have been on the same day for decades, academician Zhong Nanshan never insists on the amount of exercise he must do
.
Even if he didn’t bring sports equipment, he would do push ups, sit ups, standing up and so on
.
For decades, Zhong Nanshan has never stopped exercising
.
Academician Zhong Nanshan said, “nowadays, many young people are suffering from various diseases and their organs are aging faster because they have not developed a correct way of life
.
Even when he is on a business trip, he will take a thruster and do pulling exercises after rest
.
Then do pull-up on the single and parallel bars and prop up on the bars to exercise the upper limbs, and do sit ups in bed to exercise the abdominal muscles
.
Football, basketball and running are all his interests
.
In 1959, he also participated in the first national games as a non professional athlete, breaking the national record at that time by 54.2 seconds in the 400 meter hurdles
.
It’s a part of life.” this is academician Zhong Nanshan’s sports philosophy
.
During his study in Beijing Medical College (now Peking University Medical Department), he set several records in the school sports meeting, which no one has ever broken
.
When I was old, I would jog to keep fit
.
Of course, when I was young, I took running as a competitive sport
.
Mr

In fact, Zhong also proved his point with his own experience and practical actions
.
Focus on “happy running” in blue 👉 The video number has the same name

In front of the camera, the 83 year old Zhong Nanshan is tall and strong

He doesn’t look like an old man at all

Adhere to exercise, increase body resistance, your immunity is the strongest defense of your body! He suggested that people do more exercise when they have time
.
A healthy lifestyle will benefit them all their lives
.
As early as 2015, when the photos of him participating in swimming exercise were uploaded to the Internet, it attracted many netizens’ attention
.
“Now that I’m old, I seldom take part in competitive sports.” Zhong Nanshan said that now his way of exercise is to first run on the treadmill or ride a bicycle for 20 to 30 minutes to exercise his lower limbs
.
It’s not that he can’t do it any more, but that he can do it just enough
.
“In addition to being unable to participate in sports events with a large amount of exercise, I don’t feel that age has much influence on me
.
Zhong often said that sports can cultivate three kinds of spirit: the first is the competitive spirit, we must strive for the upper reaches; the second is the team spirit; the third is how to complete the task efficiently in unit time
.
In his 80s, after taking off his white coat, Zhong Nanshan was still muscular
.
Zhong Nanshan has loved competitive sports since he was a child
.
Sometimes I go swimming and play basketball
.
In 2003, 66 year old Zhong Nanshan led the medical staff to fight against SARS, winning the epidemic that almost swept the world
.
I had the habit of running 70 years ago
.
“When he finishes his goal, he will not do it
.
“Exercise is like eating, and it has become a part of my life.”
.
Just recently, academician Zhong Nanshan’s fitness photos were displayed on the Internet: rolling iron, lifting iron, running, swimming and playing basketball
.
It’s very important for me to maintain my physical fitness at my age in order to strengthen my physique.” From academician Zhong Nanshan, we can see that sports really play a key role in his health
.
It’s like eating
.
When he was a professor in the medical department of Peking University, Zhong Nanshan often went swimming in winter
.
In addition to the daily heavy medical and scientific research work, he still maintains the rhythm of exercise three times a week, no less than an hour each time
.
This is a picture of his arm muscles
.
After taking off his shirt and putting on his sports vest, Zhong Nanshan walked fast and jogged on the treadmill, and then did strength training
.
For decades, he has never stopped exercising
.
It is also hoped that young people can take academician Zhong Nanshan as an example and insist on physical exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle while doing their own work well
.
Finally, I wish academician Zhong Nanshan, the soldiers fighting at the forefront of the epidemic, and all of you can safely pass the epidemic and return to normal life as soon as possible.
.
That’s why academician Zhong Nanshan has always insisted on running, and is also one of the admirers of walking and jogging
.
His physical condition is no less than that of the young people around him
