Abstract
It is a well-recognized fact that in order to achieve a general good health a person has to follow three important steps:
Healthy standard of living
Healthy diet
Daily exercise
And here is where the walking exercise really assumes a special importance.
Walking is regarded as one of the best, healthiest, cheapest and most accessible form of physical activities, does not require attending a gymnasium, the purchase of complicated apparatuses and can be done at any convenient time because is sufficient to step out of the door and take advantage of the many roads, foot paths and parks available to anyone willing to use them. Floor exercise programmes should be regarded as complementing the daily walking programmes because walking is beneficial to the vascular, respiratory, muscular systems, strengthen the bone structure, just to name the major ones because the collateral benefits, known and unknown could be enormous such as immune system (the most effective vaccine), mental, etc. etc.
Therefore the best advice is: Walk, Walk, and Walk some more.
But to achieve the desired wellbeing and to receive the greatest advantages, walking must be correctly executed by following and using properly the various muscles and joints as supplied and made available within the body and do it in accordance with the rules of nature.
We have in fact, a substantial amount of muscles surrounding the hips followed by a reduced amount for the thighs and followed then by a further reduced amount for the calves. The gradual reduction of muscular volume indicates their exact proportional ability to carry us during the normal forward motion. Every component, according to nature, is expected to serve a specific purpose and if the intended purpose and order is not followed, problems become inevitable, problems which sometimes, could extend to the required replacement of the different portions involved.
Therefore it is logical to start examining, from the ground up, all the components involved in the operation.
