China News Service Client Beijing, August 7 (Li He) A sudden epidemic has made everything so special in 2020, just like this upcoming National Fitness Day . The special feature of the 12th National Fitness Day is that in the past few months, sports have been accompanied by people in their daily lives in a more returning to the original way.
For a period of time, as people's home "anti-epidemic", professional competitions such as the CBA league suspended due to the Spring Festival holiday and the Chinese Super League originally planned to start after the Spring Festival have all fallen into a long period of dormancy. On a larger scale, most cultural and sports activities have also been paused. In the face of the global spread of the new crown epidemic, everything outside of life is ranked second.
But as the famous football coach Klopp once said, sports is the most important one of those unimportant things.

On January 30, 2020, the General Office of the State Sports General Administration issued the "Notice on Vigorously Promoting Scientific Fitness Methods at Home", requesting local sports departments to combine local conditions , Launched simple, scientific and effective home fitness methods, and advocated a scientific lifestyle during the prevention and control of the new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic. According to
related research, after the outbreak, the number of people participating in home fitness increased by more than 11%. Driven by this, the proportion of people participating in sports has also increased significantly. The survey results also show that close to 60% of people believe that they will choose fitness activities to resolve negative emotions, and half of the interviewees believe that home fitness strengthens their positive emotions. Even if
does not rely on these data, the return of the role of sports in the epidemic period can be clearly perceived. In Wuhan Fangcai Hospital, the pictures of doctors and nurses leading patients to practice Tai Chi, Health Qigong and square dance are still vivid today. While feeling the warmth of the doctors and patients, these low-intensity aerobic exercises are also used as a means of rehabilitation, which is involved in the "war epidemic" rehabilitation treatment.

epidemic has aroused people's health awareness. The concept of "sports promoting health" has been strengthened to the core position of the public's vision, and the function of sports for strengthening the body has been magnified again. With the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, these needs will continue to exist or even increase, and they will become more diversified.
According to the National Fitness Plan (2016-2020), by 2020, the number of people participating in physical exercise will increase significantly. The number of people participating in physical exercise once or more per week will reach 700 million, and the number of people who regularly participate in physical exercise will reach 4.35 The total scale of sports consumption will reach 1.5 trillion yuan. According to incomplete statistics from the media, before the end of April, 3 provinces and 15 cities nationwide issued sports vouchers.
It can be foreseen that under the influence of various aspects, after the epidemic finally comes to an end, the demand for sports participation may usher in a blowout development, which will also put forward higher requirements for sports supply.
Taking the epidemic as an example, the networking of sports supply has spread with home fitness, which greatly meets the needs of sports under the condition of limited sports space.

After the "Notice on Vigorously Promoting Scientific Fitness Methods at Home" was issued, sports management departments, sports colleges, sports media organizations, various fitness software and WeChat public accounts all launched various fitness tutorials , Sports guidance video resources are open to the public, and high-level athletes are also in the mirror. Hubei Olympic champion Yang Wei took his wife Yang Yun and son Yang Yang to demonstrate at home various exercises for upper limb strength, lower limb balance, and overall flexibility. A survey of
shows that 34.4% and 24.9% of the respondents use video applications and social applications as channels for acquiring sports information. The Internet economy changes the original dependence of sports activities on time and space through intelligent methods. Taking advantage of the popular "Moment of Friends Sports", alsoCertainly affect the pattern of future sports industry development.
However, in such a hot social sports action, the huge team of social sports instructors does not seem to make a sound that matches their size. Whether this part of the sports professional guidance resources is fully utilized is a question mark. At the same time, studies have shown that 19.8% of the people who train at home have no fixed fitness content, reflecting that some people have blind fitness and ineffective fitness during home fitness.

Such a poor supply and demand is the problem. Some scholars pointed out in the document "Sociological Review of Sports Actions to Resolve Social Anxiety during the New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Period" that the team of more than 2 million social sports instructors, except for a small number of people who give simple action guidance in some activities such as square dancing, Some social sports instructors lack the knowledge and ability to innovate and promote fitness methods, plan and produce online courses, and live webcasts. According to the National Fitness Activity Survey Bulletin released in 2015, the percentage of people aged 20-29 who participated in physical exercise was the highest, at 48.2%, and the percentage of people aged 70 and above who participated in physical exercise was the lowest, at 26.0%.
Whether it is the network popularization of sports fitness information during the epidemic, or the popularity of home fitness, it is inseparable from the information reception habits and characteristics of the young and middle-aged population. Therefore, the "transformation and upgrading" of the sports instructor team has also become the only way. Data map of

In fact, this is exactly one of the "pain points" caused by the collision of mass sports in the Internet age. Fitness or exercise, there is an urgent need to continue to innovate in the form of guidance and channels. As a result, the huge team of social sports instructors is also an important "asset" that needs to be revitalized when expanding sports supply channels. The team of
can be regarded as the "last mile" of the "national sports governance system" and is the micro foundation for the improvement of sports governance capabilities. The lagging behind of the social sports instructor training and operation system reflects that the reform of the sports governance system needs to infiltrate to a more basic level, and the governance gate is shifted further down.

This is also the meaning of the "Healthy China 2030" Planning Outline" "Extensive development of healthy communities, healthy villages and towns, healthy units, healthy families, etc." requirements.
sports once carried a lot. It can be a kind of artistic experience of power and beauty, it can be entertainment after a meal, it can be an industry, it can also be the glory of individuals, groups or even the country. However, after the outbreak of the epidemic caused world sports to press the pause button, sports began to return to its roots and became an important way to use exercise as a means to pursue health and regulate emotions.
At a time when all mankind is facing challenges, in this different National Fitness Day, National Fitness and National Health are more closely linked together, and this is precisely the original "force" and "initial heart" of sports. (End)
