Expert Consensus — Clinical practice 专家共识 — 临床实践
How to Practice
- After each point ends, turn away from the net and take one full breath: inhale 4 counts, exhale 4 counts.
- Use this walk to the baseline as your reset: two more slow breath cycles, focusing only on the sensation of air.
- Before serving or receiving, take a single sharp exhale through the mouth to release tension — then inhale 4 counts to set up.
- On changeovers, sit and breathe slowly for the first 60 seconds before any tactical thinking.
- After an error, use an immediate exhale — like a sigh — to release frustration before the reset breath.
如何练习
- 每分结束后，背对球网，完整呼吸一次：吸气4拍，呼气4拍。
- 走向底线时进行重置：再做两个缓慢呼吸循环，只专注于空气的感觉。
- 发球或接球前，用嘴急促呼气一次释放紧张，然后吸气4拍进行准备。
- 换边时，先坐下缓慢呼吸60秒，再进行任何战术思考。
- 失误后，立即用呼气（如叹气）释放挫败感，再进行重置呼吸。
