Opening remarks of the Double Ninth Festival event of the Senior Fitness Federation

The first is to give everyone who has been practicing for more than half a year a display place to celebrate the Double Ninth Festival in a lively manner. The second is to put the fitness program that our federation and the Municipal Physical Education Institute have jointly polished for half a year and adapt to the elderly with different physical conditions into the hands of everyone. Come and come back with pleasure, without making a fuss.

Look at Uncle Zhang Jianguo in the first row below the stage. At this time last year, he didn’t dare to walk much because of degenerative knee disease. He rarely even went out of the community. He practiced with the knee-friendly training group we launched last year for 10 months. Today, he will go on stage to do 24-style Tai Chi. I saw him kicking more agilely than a young man in the backcourt just now. This is the most practical meaning of our activities.

In fact, when we were preparing for this event, our board of directors had been arguing for almost half a month. A group of old guys said that the Double Ninth Festival should be lively and lively. There should be more performances and more programs. The most important thing is for everyone to come together and have fun.； There is also a group of people who say that there are too many rumors about fitness on the Internet, and many people have injured their waists and knees by practicing blindly. It is better to turn it into a pure science popularization center and tell everyone more practical information. At the end of the argument, we made a decision and wanted both sides. You see, our venue is split in half today. The east side is the performance area. Tai Chi, soft ball, aerobics, and the diabolo team we just formed have all scheduled programs. If you like to join in the fun, head to the east side. There will be prizes and interactions later. If you answer the right questions, you will be given practical little things such as non-slip socks and fitness elastic bands. ； To the west is the popular science experience area, where orthopedic surgeons from the Municipal People's Hospital and fitness instructors from the Institute of Physical Education sit for consultations. There are also experience classes for seated aerobics and abdominal breathing training specially prepared for seniors over 80 years old with basic diseases such as high blood pressure and lumbar protrusion. If you want to choose a fitness method that suits you, go to the west side and do whatever makes you feel comfortable. No one stipulates where you have to stay.

Oh, by the way, when I came in just now, I saw Aunt Li Guilan from Building 3 carrying a tray of steamed Double Ninth Cake and said she wanted to share it with the old sisters who were doing aerobics. We discussed with the logistics, and during the intermission, we put the homemade food that everyone brought, as well as the Double Ninth Cake we prepared, in the rest area, as well as dogwood sachets. Our ancestors’ tradition of celebrating the Double Ninth Festival will not be forgotten today. Eat something sweet and chat, which is better than anything else.

Oh, by the way, let me add a word. Just now, the logistics department sent me a message saying that there is a small handgrip in the handbag that everyone receives when they come in. Don’t think it is inconspicuous. We have measured the upper body strength data of 327 members in the past six months. They squeezed for 10 minutes every day. Not only did they It can prevent the degeneration of the upper limbs. I usually feel pain in my arms when carrying babies and sore shoulders when cooking. I can feel obvious relief after practicing for half a month. I have been using it for two months. Now I can carry ten kilograms of rice up to the third floor without gasping. It is really good.

I don't take up much of everyone's time. Lao Zhou, who was playing gongs and drums in the backcourt just now, winked at me for a long time. He was anxious to perform on stage. Next, we will ask Chairman Wang from the Municipal Elderly Sports Association to say a few words to everyone, and our activities today will officially begin! I wish all uncles and aunts have fun today, good health, and live stronger and stronger!
