Whatever works.
Even if it comes from aerobics, physical therapy, tap dancing, or ballet.
Don't completely dismiss western physical culture exercises because they may seem crude;
like a waste of energy meant for developing brute muscular size and aesthetic appearance
for Narcissistic beauty contests,
far beyond what is needed for practical daily functional strength and optimal health.
If you do those crude looking exercises with a jhānic taiji qigong mentality,
prioritizing jhāna and taiji principles,
then what superficially looks like a crude body builder exercise
can be repurposed into an amazing blissful, refined, jhānic qigong.

Many extremely useful exercises are not in qigong and yoga because they look un-elegant, crude,
and even just plain ugly.
