对全国中老年太极拳比赛部分运动员锻炼动机研究

Study on the Exercise Motives of Some Taijiquan Sportsmen of the Middle and Old-aged

运用动机理论,对参加1997年全国中老年太极拳比赛部分运动员锻炼动机进行调查,结果显示:中老年人从事太极拳锻炼的动机是比较广泛和复杂的,既有直接动机又有间接动机,既有缺乏情动机又有丰富情动机。通过分析发现,我国现行的太极拳活动不仅仅是一种体育锻炼活动,同时也是一项团体性较强的社会活动。

This paper aims to survey and study the exercise motives of some sportsmen participating in the National Taijiquan Contest of the Middle and Old-aged in 1997. The result of the study shows that the motives are of varieties and complex. There are both direct and indirect motives, and both excess and deficient passion motives. It is found from the analysis that the participating Taijiquan activity in China is not only a physical exercise activity but also a social group activity.
