Will race walking improve or aggravate knee hyperextension and pelvic forward movement? What effect will it have on leg shape?
Some people say that race walking can thicken the calf and thin the fat thigh and muscular leg, but the leg will not be deformed.

Proper race walking can effectively lose fat legs and keep the shape of the legs well, but excessive race walking can lose fat, but it will exercise the muscles of the legs, especially the calf muscles, and can not achieve the effect of beautiful legs. Race walking is good for shaping the whole body. Race walking is a long-distance, long-term and low-intensity aerobic exercise with good weight loss effect. Race walking is a gentle sport, which mainly depends on endurance, not instantaneous strength. Only general strength exercise can make the strength points of the body thicker. Therefore, the correct way of race walking not only has a small muscular development, but also can make the leg fat disappear and play the role of stovepipe.

The causes of knee hyperextension and pelvic forward movement are:

One: Congenital factors

Some people are born with poor connective tissue toughness or a larger range of joint motion than normal.

Two: acquired factors

Including pathological changes, such as knee hyperextension caused by nervous system diseases; Compensate for knee hyperextension by walking posture, wearing high heels and other daily actions.

Three: damage caused by external forces

Such as collisions in sports or accidents.

Four: the special requirements of sports for the human body

For example, a ballet dancer supports one leg with her toes for a long time, and long-term practice will lead to knee hyperextension.

Five: It is related to the habit of bearing weight.

For example, when standing, the knee joint lock remains stable, or in strength training, the knee is too straight to reach the joint lock position every time.

Six. Bad standing posture and center of gravity distribution

For example, because the pelvis leans forward or moves forward, the center of gravity moves forward excessively, which leads to the force line of human gravity passing in front of the knee joint. Long-term horizontal backward compression may cause the knee joint to overstretch.

Seven: weakness of gluteus maximus

Gluteus maximus is the main muscle to stretch the hip. When walking, the weakness of gluteus maximus can make people lean forward and backward. Insufficient hip extension often leads to excessive knee extension to replace and compensate, which is called compensation. In the long run, it may lead to knee hyperextension.
