If we don't stretch our legs, we will strain our muscles when jogging, so it is necessary to warm up before and after every run.

The correct posture for jogging:
1, foot landing mode
Some people think that you should land with your forefoot when running, while others think you should land with your feet. We suggest touching the ground with the middle part first. Research shows that an excellent long-distance runner usually lands between his feet. The jogger lands on his feet and the runner lands in front of the jogger. We think that only sprinters and middle-distance runners are suitable for forefoot landing. There may be some exceptions, but landing in the middle of the foot is a good way for middle and junior runners. This can reduce the vibration, relieve the pressure of calf muscles and tendons, and prepare for the next step.
2. Hip and head posture
It's hard to imagine: when your feet hit the ground, where is your hip? It is suggested that the feet should be at the end of the center of gravity when landing, that is, the head, hips and feet are in a line at three o'clock. Keep your head straight ahead. You need to be very careful when turning your head, usually from the neck up to avoid twisting your body and instability when traveling.
3. Arm posture
When running, your arm movements help you move forward, and at the same time, your arm movements also help to minimize trunk rotation. Keep your elbows bent about 90 degrees. Relax your arms as much as possible during running, while keeping your legs synchronized. Swing your arms up or down while running. Swing your hand up to the height of the sternum and down to the position of the belt. Keep this range of motion, neither too high nor too low.
4. Knee posture
Don't lift your knees too high in long-distance running. Only sprinters or we need to raise our knees when going uphill.
