Walking backwards can exercise bones;
Walking backwards is a special physiotherapy method in orthopedics. When walking backward, the legs can't bend naturally as when walking forward, which increases the pressure on the knee joint and surrounding tissues. Therefore, walking backwards can exercise the tissues around the knee joint and improve its load-bearing gravity and toughness.
Secondly, when walking backwards, the waist of the human body will naturally straighten or lean back, so that the spine and back that are difficult to exercise at ordinary times can be well exercised, which can alleviate the fatigue of the back and enhance its disease resistance. Therefore, walking backwards is a good way to exercise the back.
In order to keep balance when walking backwards, the foot exerts great force, so walking backwards can also exercise the muscle tissue of the foot and stimulate the meridians of the foot. Walking backwards can not only exercise the bones, but also exercise the cerebellar balance of the human body, dredge the back meridians and promote the circulation of qi and blood.
Way and posture of walking backwards:
When walking backwards, you should hold your chest out, look straight ahead, and your hands can be akimbo or swing naturally with your steps. When walking backwards, you should first land on your toes, and then land on your feet or heels.
