Objective: This research aims at comparing the differences in shape and functionbetween the people with partial constitution and those with mildly constitution andobserving the effects of exercises on the people with qi-insufficiency constitution.Methods:Research1: Firstly, the female students with partial constitution will be separated from thoseof mildly constitution according to the Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire.Secondly, the differences in such indexes as the body composition, WHR, BMI backstrength and maximum quantity of respiratory oxygen will be found between the femalestudents with partial constitution and those with mildly constitution. Research 2: The femalestudents with qi-insufficiency constitution will be divided into 2 groups with one does BaDuanjin and the other Aerobics. Both groups will do that 3 times a week with 40miniteseach time. After 6 weeks, this research will compare the subjective evaluations caused bythe exercises and the differences in the indexes as the shape and the function. Results:Experient1: Both the WHR and the BMI of the students with qi-insufficiency constitutionare higher than those of the students with mildly constitution. And the percentages of bodyfat, the WHR as well as BMI of the students with wet-heat constitution are higher thanthose of the students with mildly constitution. The students with qi-insufficiencyconstitution and yang-insufficiency constitution are lower than those with mildlyconstitution in terms of back strength. All the results mentioned above indicate that thedifferences are obvious. Experient2: The subjective evaluations of the qi-insufficiencyconstitution become lower after the exercises of Ba Duanjin and Aerobics with thedifferences can be measured by statistics. In Ba Duanjin group, factors as body weight, thepercentage of the fat, the BMI and WHB change alot with each increases to some degree. While in Aerobics group, the body weight, the muscle quantity and the BMIincreases, but the percentage of fat and WHR are lower than before. These two exercisesshow a tendency to increase in such aspects as vital capacity, back strength and maximumquantity of respiratory oxygen.Conclusion: There are some differences between the peoplewith partial constitution and those with mildly constitution in shape and function. Apartfrom that, Exercise Intervention has some effects on the people with qi-insufficiencyconstitution.
