What are some ways to walk?

Walking is a healthier lifestyle. If we walk for a long time, it will not only make us healthier, but also some inherent diseases in the body will disappear. However, before walking, we must understand the method of walking, so that we can play the real role of walking and get twice the result with half the effort. Next, let us learn about the method of walking.

When walking, you must pay attention to three things. First, swing your hands vigorously. Second, pay attention to the rhythm of your walking. Third, different people walk differently. In fact, if we do not walk properly, it will cause harm to our body, so we must understand the correct way to walk.

1. Swing your hands vigorously

First of all, you need to examine your usual walking habits and change the bad parts. For example, some people like to hunch their backs or put their hands behind their backs when walking for comfort, which is wrong. When "healthy walking", one must keep the spine straight. In addition, most people do not pay much attention to the force pattern of their limbs when walking, but when "healthy walking", one must include the swing of the hands. The swinging of your arms will affect the muscles of the whole body and is very helpful for blood circulation throughout the body.

2. Pay attention to the sense of rhythm

While walking with big strides, it is also emphasized that you should pay attention to the sense of rhythm. Only with a strong sense of rhythm can breathing be smooth and unobstructed. Rhythmic walking is also very helpful for improving cardiopulmonary function. An effective method is to sing "We cross the Yalu River with high spirits and vigor" while walking. The rhythm of this song is designed for walking, so it is very helpful for cultivating a sense of rhythm for walking exercises.

In terms of adjusting breathing methods, Zhao Zhixin provided a method, which is to inhale in the first three steps and exhale in the fourth step when walking. Repeating this process is what we often call aerobic exercise.

3. Walking method varies from person to person

1. Young people should take 90 steps for every 100 meters, so a thousand steps a day

Intensity: For gay men, it is generally required to walk 100 meters in about 90 steps. Try to take big steps, but don't move too fast. Depending on your situation, try to walk 500 to 1,000 steps every day. Fixed time, fixed amount of exercise.

Suitable for: Fitness enthusiasts of younger age

2. Elderly people should walk fast and slow alternately.

Speed: It varies from person to person, just walk a little faster than your normal pace.

Intensity: First do three to five minutes of slow walking to replenish Qi and blood, enhance the body's coordination and responsiveness, and avoid joint injuries during exercise; then do five minutes of brisk walking. The time is controlled within thirty to forty minutes. Older people should control the intensity of exercise.

Suitable for people: Fitness enthusiasts with poor lower limb strength and joints

From this we can see that the method of health walking is not very complicated. It is basically the way we walk in our daily life. However, many people are busy at work and have no time for health walking. This does not matter, because there are many opportunities to walk in our lives. For example, on the way home from get off work, you can change from taking a car to walking.
