Can you really walk? Improper hiking affects health

Excessively large hands, too big steps, and stomping on the ground, these are the common phenomenon of loose body in walking. People who violate conventional walking will not only affect the speed but may also cause inflammation and soreness in the pelvis.

Every normal person must walk every day. But do you really "walk"? “Most people walking do not know that their walking is inefficient. This is tantamount to torturing themselves.” Ken Mattson, a fitness expert specializing in walking in Cambridge, United Kingdom, said: “For example, many people walk and shake Bumpy. Some people like to throw away their hands. Although these seem to be small things, over time, you may suffer from walking injuries."

The following summarizes the three possible mistakes people make while walking, and suggests that people correct these bad habits one by one.

Mistake 1: Poor posture

Race walking coach Pony Stein pointed out: "A lot of people who walk are injured for the simple reason that they don't walk straight enough." And the most common mistakes that people make when walking are two kinds: bowing, or head overtaxing Lean back. Both of these postures may cause the body to lose its balance and exert excessive pressure on the lower back muscles, which may strain and pain.

Corrective: Do not look up or down, look straight ahead, keep your neck and body aligned. When walking, pay more attention to your body posture and correct wrong movements.

Mistake 2: The body is too loose

Excessively large hands, too big steps, and stomping on the ground, these are the common phenomenon of loose body in walking. People who violate conventional walking will not only affect the speed but may also cause inflammation and soreness in the pelvis.

Corrective: Keep your arms close to your body. Excessive swing arms will waste too much energy. The ideal swing arm mode is to maintain the arm bent 90 degrees, the elbow close to the body, swing forward and backward. At the same time, the pace of the two feet should be unified and maintain a normal distance. If the pace is too big or too small, it will affect the speed. The method of measuring the normal pace is simple. Straighten one of your legs. The heel is close to the ground but not on the ground. Then the body leans forward. The position of the heel of the forefoot is the reasonable step you normally would have taken. As far as landing is concerned, it should be slightly lighter. Repeated steps will only waste energy that should have been forward.

Error three, line repeat

Everyone knows that the more interesting and good the exercise is, the better experts point out that many people are too lazy to plan routes. "Many walkers don't want to plan their routes to keep the fun of walking. They always walk the same path, and then they feel boring."

Remedy: Change the scene, take a different path, and occasionally try climbing. Try to change speeds during walking, such as speeding for 30 seconds and then relaxing for 90 seconds; or walking longer distances, which can further challenge your physical fitness, but experts recommend that the distance to walk per week should only be increased by up to 5%. Moreover, you should occasionally rest for a day or two to avoid overwork.

Incorrect walking posture makes legs ugly

One, kicking

Some people seem to be afraid of foul water or dirt on the ground soiling their shoes or trousers, and they have developed a kicking habit. The body leans forward while kicking, only kicking the toes to the ground when walking, then the knees are bent and the heel lifted. Therefore, the waist is hard to use when walking. If you have a habit of kicking, it is best to be careful not to make the whole leg thicker.

Second, pressure foot away

Similar to kicking, but this way of walking is a long time with both feet on the ground. The body weight will be pressed on the tip of the toe as you go, and then lift it up again. If you go on for a long time, it will lead to more and more developed leg muscles, there will be nasty radish legs appear.

Three, within eight characters or eight characters outside

Many Japanese women go inside and out. However, this type of character will take a long time to become o-type legs. If you have the habit of walking outside the character, then please pay attention to the fact that the outer eight-character walk will make the knee outward, the leg shape will also become ugly, and it will also lead to o-type legs.

Fourth, take a tiptoe

In fact, the intention is to make the pace more beautiful. Because too much force is applied to the tip of the toes, the knee will be too hard on the calf due to the force of the toes. It is easy to grow radish legs.

Those of these four walking poses do not know if you have any?

Although walking has been learned since childhood, many people have grown up. However, as long as they persist, you can get out of the right posture. Excessively large hands, too big steps, and stomping on the ground, these are the common phenomenon of loose body in walking. People who violate conventional walking will not only affect the speed but may also cause inflammation and soreness in the pelvis.
