Walking is no doubt the most fundamental human movement. This is our main mode of locomotion and transport - it's how we get from A to B. And yet, there is very little discussion surrounding walking across YouTube or the web at large. This is a huge error, in my opinion, given just how much we stand to benefit from focussing on our walking. Walking serves as a fantastic way to burn calories and get the blood flowing during the day. As an activity, it is gentle enough that nearly anyone can do it, and it serves as a perfect form of recovery. By walking, we get more blood flow to the muscles, thereby helping us to get back in the gym faster. Walking also has a huge number of mental health benefits, especially if you walk somewhere scenic that you haven't been before. But more than all this, walking can also be a perfect way to rehearse healthy movement patterns and to practice contralateral movement. Walking *correctly* that is. Which is a whole can-of-worms! |
