Walk hard or race?
Walking race and Zou Jing are two different concepts.

Race walking is a special way of walking, which originated in Britain at the end of 19. It requires two legs to move forward alternately, keep uninterrupted contact with the ground and never leave the ground at the same time. Race walking is much faster than ordinary walking, and it is a good fitness exercise with great intensity.

Walking is a kind of fitness exercise developed on the basis of walking, which emphasizes maintaining the stability and balance of the body while walking, so that the muscles of the body can be fully exercised. Strong walking is characterized by tall and straight posture, strong arm swing, moderate stride, stable heart rate and breathing. It can not only improve the endurance and coordination of the body, but also improve the cardiopulmonary function and prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Generally speaking, race walking and strength walking are two different sports methods, which can be chosen according to personal needs and interests.
