How to swing your arms while running?

Running is a very good sport and is good for your health, but many people are more prone to injury while running, so we need to pay attention to it. We must pay attention to complying with various principles during the running process. For example, you need to understand the arm swing methods and techniques when running, which can make you run faster and have a better exercise effect.

How to develop arm swing strength? It is definitely not improved through special upper limb strength (push-ups, dumbbells, etc.), but through the coordinated force of the upper and lower limbs. The most efficient arm swing movement is weightlifting. The coordination of weightlifters and their ability to coordinate upper and lower limbs are better than most people can imagine. However, due to the lack of good training conditions, relevant training cannot be carried out. Therefore, the jumping training introduced before is a very efficient movement to improve arm swing ability, and it is recommended to practice it.

There is another movement, which is to make yourself jump up only by swinging your arms without using your legs to exert force. This is a strange training because you are using your arms to make yourself jump. This is not the case, because the real force is the force of the hips driven by the swing of the arms, and the jumping action is completed by using the force of the hip extension. Therefore, we can understand the importance of arm swing for hip extension.

Misconception: The dumbest way to exercise upper limbs is to use dumbbells or do push-ups. The most effective way to exercise upper limbs is to do movements that coordinate the upper and lower limbs, such as running, jumping, etc. In addition, firmly resist running or jumping training with dumbbells in hand, because such training will damage the spine! !

The above is an introduction to the methods and techniques of arm swinging while running. I hope that after understanding these issues, you should pay attention to remind yourself to swing your arms correctly when running. This is most beneficial to our health and increasing the effect of exercise. Especially during running exercise, everyone needs to pay attention to these issues.
