Summary

College student volunteers were recruited from a university in Anhui Province, China, and screened by the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) scale, and those with PSQI scores higher than 7 were considered to have clinical insomnia, and insomniac college students screened were subjected to a 24-week 24-form taijiquan intervention, and the rest of the insomniac volunteers were randomly divided into the fast-walking group and the control group. As the most common form of physical exercise for college students and the easiest aerobic exercise, brisk walking was chosen as an intervention for insomniac college students to better compare the efficacy of tai chi with that of general aerobic exercise for insomnia. The taijiquan group performed taijiquan exercise three times a week for 60 minutes each time, the brisk walking group performed brisk walking training three times a week for 60 minutes each time, and the control group did not carry out any intervention and maintained a normal life and study status. Before the intervention, questionnaires were filled out and fasting elbow venous blood was drawn, and the staff uniformly explained the intervention-related contents and precautions, and after 24 weeks of intervention, the post-test questionnaires and fasting venous blood were filled out centrally.
