Think of it as something to do in addition to aerobic exercise. It’s very good for maintaining/increasing range of motion and flexibility and some strength with a bit of cardiac. It’s more of a yin (hence the calming aspect) activity rather than something more yang like running or aerobics. You definitely can “feel the burn” though depending upon the amount you do, I have been feeling wiped out but great by the end of the qi gong weekends.

So Wendy~ it looks calming, but I’m still not sure how you stay in shape… ?
