What are the precautions for brisk walking?

In daily life, there are many ways of exercising that have health benefits, such as brisk walking is a good choice. Everyone needs to develop a good habit of exercise, which can not only improve human health, but also keep a good mood, effectively release stress and relieve emotions. However, you also need to be careful when walking briskly. So what are the precautions for brisk walking?

The following points should be noted when brisk walking: first, walk on flat ground, which will cause less damage to the joints; second, keep your chest and head up, spread your shoulders, and keep your shoulders and hips in the same straight line perpendicular to the ground. If the hips lean back, it will increase the burden on the spine and waist, and the best exercise effect cannot be achieved; swing your arms naturally, and be careful not to swing your arms above your shoulders; take big steps and move quickly. The center of gravity of the waist should be placed on the stepped foot, and the muscles of the whole body should be actively used when walking. This will help relieve back pain, shoulder pain, and improve the function of internal organs.

The walking speed should be based on your own physical condition. You should brisk walk for half an hour to 40 minutes every day, until you start to sweat a little. The heart rate of young people generally does not exceed 130 beats per minute, and that of the elderly over 60 years old does not exceed 120 beats per minute. 120 to 140 steps per minute and a heart rate of 120 beats per minute are appropriate. The intensity should be such that you sweat a little and breathe a little, and can talk but not sing while walking. After walking, you should feel relaxed or not dizzy, nauseous or tired. Stick to it for 30 minutes a day, and you can finish it in one go or complete it in several times according to your personal time.

Working at a desk every day can easily make you gain weight, especially the fat in your abdomen. At the same time, commuting to and from work by car for a long time does not allow the body to get exercise, which poses a threat to health. After dinner, the breeze is blowing, it's a good time for a brisk walk. I put on sneakers and became one of the people walking briskly. Take big steps, swing your arms, keep your head up and your chest out, and be quick. Half an hour later, I was sweating all over and felt extremely relaxed. Brisk walking is not only simple and safe, but also can keep fit and prevent disease. It can also dispel depression, making people happy and relaxed both physically and mentally. Brisk walking is a perfect exercise, safer than jogging and more effective than walking.

Through the above introduction, everyone is clear about what to pay attention to when brisk walking. Pay attention to the correctness of the methods and techniques during exercise, do not overexert yourself, and everything needs to be regular. Even if it is for weight loss, you must gradually increase the amount of exercise, and be mentally prepared for long-term exercise.
