Is walking backwards good for the elderly?
Hello, walking backwards is not good for the elderly for the following reasons:

First, it is unscientific for the old man to walk away.

Second, the old man's legs and feet are awkward. If they stumble, or their feet slip slightly, they will easily fall on their backs.

Third, people will have a sense of self-protection when they fall. If you fall forward, your hands can also help cushion and reduce the danger. But if you fall on your back, it is impossible to protect yourself.

Fourth, the elderly and people with cardiovascular diseases are not suitable for walking backwards.

Fifth, when you exercise in parks or Woods, you must pay attention to the surrounding trees and stones to avoid falling or getting hurt.

Sixth, it is not suitable for walking in places with many people and cars and on low-lying and uneven roads to avoid falling and accidents.

Then, the elderly are suitable for the following sports:

First, square dance

Second, Tai Chi Chuan.

Third, gymnastics.

Fourth, take a walk.
