What is the difference between walking and running?
1. Different postures
It is necessary to step on the ground with one foot in the race. Generally, the heel of the swinging leg touches the ground, and the toe of the back kick can't leave the ground, so as to ensure that there will be no flying phenomenon. Moreover, from the moment you swing your legs to the ground until your legs reach a vertical posture, your legs must be straight and your knees must not be bent.
2. Different forms of exercise.
Race walking is a long-distance, long-term and low-intensity aerobic exercise, while running is sometimes aerobic and sometimes anaerobic. It is aerobic like jogging and anaerobic like long-distance running.
Which is better, walking or running?
Walking or running can't say which is better. It can not only exercise, but also lose weight. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Which is better can't be generalized, you can choose according to your specific situation and needs.
What is the correct posture?
1. Head posture. Hold your head high, keep your eyes on the front, don't hunch over, it's easy to get low back pain. Shoulder posture The shoulders are in line with the hips and the trunk is upright. The shoulders and trunk cooperate with the legs to rotate slightly along the longitudinal axis of the body to maintain the balance of the body and strengthen the back pedal effect.
2. arm posture. When swinging your arm, bend your elbow about 90 degrees. Half-clenched fists swing back and forth forcibly on the side of the body, generally not exceeding the midline of the body and not exceeding the height of the jaw. When swinging back, the elbow is slightly outward, and the upper arm is about shoulder height.
3. Leg posture. It is the most important part of race walking, which has two stages: one leg support and two legs support. One-foot support has two stages: front pedal and rear pedal.
Push forward: when the body is in a vertical position, the support leg is completely straight, the whole foot is on the ground, and the swinging leg is still swinging. The knee joint is slightly lower than the supporting leg, the included angle between the big leg and the small leg is slightly larger than the right angle, and the horizontal axis of the pelvis is slightly inclined.
Push back: when the center of gravity of the body moves forward beyond the vertical plane, it begins to push back. The swinging legs bend their knees and swing forward to drive the pelvis to rotate forward along the upper and lower axes. The calf swings forward by the inertia of the thigh swinging forward, gradually stretching the knee joint, and the foot follows the ground, thus increasing the stride. When the heel of the swinging leg touches the ground, the feet are instantly supported. Keep your legs straight at this time to prevent the center of gravity from falling. When the foot of the swinging leg follows the ground, the toe of the back kick immediately leaves the ground, thus ending the back kick.
4. The posture of the foot is that the foot follows the ground, and then transitions to the forefoot, ending with a toe pedal. From one-legged support to two-legged support, swing your legs and feet and don't leave the ground before touching the ground.
What's the walking frequency?
Relax: the distance is not less than 2 kilometers; The walking times are reduced by 50-70 times/minute; Relaxation of gait; Three to five times a week. Fast walking: 3-5 kilometers fast walking distance; The step frequency is about 150 steps/minute; Walk forward in a balanced way, three or four times a week.
