First . From "swimming" to "healthy swimming": why swimming is the best choice for all?


       Swimming is the only exercise that involves all muscles simultaneously and has zero impact on joints. it has a significant effect on improving cardiopulmonary function, flexibility and metabolic capacity. 


At the launching ceremony, Professor Wang Jianguo, chief physician of the Institute of Sports Medicine of Beijing University of Physical Education, used a set of data to prove that according to the 2023 National 


Constitution Monitoring Bulletin, among those who insisted on swimming for more than half a year, the hypertension control rate was 27% higher than that of ordinary people, the incidence of cervical spondylosis was reduced by 35%,


And the average height growth rate of teenagers increased by 1.2 cm. "What's more, swimming is joint friendly-standing in the pool with a 60kg weight puts only 1/10th as much stress on the knee joint as on land, 


Making it safe for middle-aged and elderly people and weight managers to exercise. "


In recent years, with the promotion of "Healthy China 2030" strategy, swimming has been upgraded from the traditional "summer heat" activity to the core project of national fitness. 


Ding Dong, director of the Group Department of the General Administration of Sports, introduced that in 2023, the number of swimming venues nationwide exceeded 32,000, 


And more than 120 million people participated in swimming fitness, an increase of 41% compared with five years ago. At the same time, however, problems such as "health hazards in swimming pools" and "frequent sports injuries"


Still restrict the release of health value of swimming. In 2023, the monitoring by health and health departments showed that about 15% of swimming pools had residual chlorine not up to standard and urea exceeding the standard; 


Shoulder and neck injury cases caused by wrong posture increased by 22% year-on-year.


Second. "Healthy Swimming" Double Guarantee: Venue "Hard Standard" and Guidance "Soft Service"


      How to upgrade a swimming pool from "safe water" to "healthy water"? At the launching ceremony, China Swimming Association jointly with the National Health and Health 


Commission issued the Health Management Specification for Healthy Swimming Venues (2024) to give the answer: In addition to the traditional indicators such as residual chlorine and pH value,


The requirements of "rapid detection of microorganisms"(such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus) and "dynamic publicity of water quality" are added. 


The venue shall update the water quality data every hour and display it to the public in real time through scanning code. "We require demonstration venues to be equipped with intelligent water quality monitoring equipment, 


And the data is directly connected to the regulatory platform to ensure traceability of 'one pool, one yard'. "The relevant person in charge of the Disease Control Bureau of the National Health and Health Commission said.


At the "software" level, the Public Guide to Healthy Swimming (2024 Edition) puts forward the concept of "layered guidance" for the first time: for zero-based population, it recommends "walking-floating-rowing" progressive teaching; 


for patients with chronic diseases (Such as hypertension, diabetes), clarify the safety process of "warm-up for 10 minutes-control intensity (heart rate ≤170-age)-slow swimming for 5 minutes before the end"; for teenagers, 


emphasize the posture selection of "breaststroke-based, freestyle supplemented," so as to avoid scoliosis caused by long-term wrong movements. "A lot of people swim for years and complain of shoulder pain, 


and the problem is often that their elbows bend too early in the stroke. "At the event site, former national swimming team coach Zhang Lin demonstrated the correct stroke movement: " The palm should be at a 45-degree angle when entering the water, 


and the stroke route should be as natural as 'holding a big tree' in order to protect the rotator cuff muscles. "

Third . Participation of the whole people: leap from "meeting tour" to "healthy tour"


      After the launch ceremony, a special "healthy swimming experience class" was held in the National Olympic Sports Center: 30 middle-aged and elderly people 


In the community followed the coach to practice eight-piece brocade in the water, the children learned balance on the buoyancy pad, and Aunt Wang, a hypertension patient, completed the first underwater walk under the supervision of medical staff. "


I used to think swimming was a young man's sport, but now I know that swimming slowly for 20 minutes is easier than walking fast. "Li Shufen, a 62-year-old retired teacher, wiped her sweat and said,"


Just now the nurse also taught me to monitor my heart rate with an exercise bracelet. It turns out that healthy swimming has 'instructions'! "


It is reported that the "2024 National Healthy Swimming Season" will last until the end of September, covering 31 provinces across the country. During the activity, special activities such as 


Healthy Swimming Challenge Competition,""Water Quality Open Day" and "Chronic Disease Swimming Rehabilitation Lecture" will be held in various places, and "Swimming Health Insurance


Will be launched jointly with insurance companies to provide accident medical treatment and sports injury protection for participants.


Swimming is not only a competitive event, but also a 'good doctor in the water' for the health of the whole people. Professor Wang Jianguo appealed to the public to give priority to checking the logo of "


Healthy Swimming Demonstration Venue" when choosing swimming venues; to actively conduct health assessment before swimming (especially patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases); 


To wash and replenish water in time after swimming. "When scientific guidance and standardized venues are deeply integrated, the swimming pool can truly become a 'blue harbor' for the health of the whole people. "



At Last.The story of healthy swimming has only just begun this summer, with thousands of people doing "water aerobics" at the launch ceremony
