Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Make your daily walk do more for your body
We all know that walking offers a lot of benefits to our physical and
mental health. Many of us also know that 30 minutes of brisk walking per day helps
enhance fitness, improve cardiovascular health, reduce stress or anxiety, and
even lower the risk of chronic diseases. However, some people walk like ducks, hips
open and feet angled outward, or the opposite, hips internally rotated and feet
angled inward, both of which could hinder glute activation and postural
alignment. Also, carrying a bag or gazing at a smartphone with one hand would
outbalance your walking posture. To improve your daily walking quality and
benefits, there are several aspects you want to pay attention to, such as foot
strike, balance, use of glutes, eyes, breathing, and arm movements. Do you want
to do the wrong thing for your body for half an hour every day, or do the right
thing?
