🏃‍♀️ Health Tips for the Walker 🏃‍♂️

✅ Do’s

  • Stand tall, keeping your gaze forward—not down.

  • Engage your core—gently contract your stomach muscles and keep your back flat.

  • Relax your neck, shoulders, and back.

  • Bend your elbows at a right angle and swing your arms naturally.

  • Take comfortable strides—let your feet land beneath your body, not ahead.

  • Focus on a brisk, steady rhythm—aim for quick, relaxed steps.

🚫 Don’ts

  • Don’t look at the ground while walking.

  • Don’t slouch or let your posture collapse.

  • Don’t round your shoulders forward or droop.

  • Don’t lead with your chin—this strains your neck and throws off alignment.

  • Don’t let your arms dangle—keep them engaged for balance and rhythm.

💡 And Remember

  • Wear comfortable, supportive, and well-fitted footwear.

  • Hydrate well—drink water during and after your walk.

  • If you’re new to walking, start slow with short distances, and build up gradually.
