Chinese Confucius said that “sex is similar, but habits are far away”, and divided human nature into nature and acquired; Zhang Zai’s dualism of nature in the Northern Song Dynasty divides human nature into temperament and destiny.
Dialectical materialism believes that there is no transcendental human nature and transcendental good and evil.
Any real human nature is the result of human subjective and objective interaction on the basis of genetic factors in the social environment, in which human social practice has decisive significance for the construction of human nature.
In the field of modern western psychology, there are three typical representatives: ① Freud psychoanalysis emphasizes the interpretation of human beings’ whole and behavior with human instinct, which is an instinctive determinism or genetic determinism; ② Behaviorism goes to the other extreme, otherwise it is innate instinct.
It advocates that all human behaviors and natures are acquired.
It is the connection and systematization of stimulus response, and it is an anti instinct theory or environmental determinism; ③ Humanistic psychology opposes both instinctive determinism and acquisition theory, and advocates that human nature is instinctive, that is, human desires or basic needs are innate to a certain extent, but the behaviors or abilities, cognition or feelings related to them are not necessarily innate, but may be acquired or expressed after learning or guidance.
Maslow believes that human nature is the sum of all human attributes, and instinctive needs are the concentrated expression of human nature.

When scientists compared long-distance runners and cyclists, they found that the muscle injury experienced by runners increased by 133-144%, and the inflammation and DOMS (delayed muscle soreness) were 87% higher.
