I am a great believer in the use of bodyweight exercises to supplement Qigong. This may give you some ideas. Edited June 22, 2012 by Chang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChiDragon Posted June 22, 2012 I am a great believer in the use of bodyweight exercises to supplement Qigong. This may give you some ideas. The thinking is in reverse. It is the other way around. The body weight exercises, if done strenuously, will consume some or all the oxygen in the muscles. Eventually, the lactic acid fermentation will take over and cause muscle pains. In Chi Kung, with slow movements, one is breathing more oxygen which will prevent the pyruvic acid turns into lactic acid. Instead, cell respiration will produce more ATP for the body to function.
