Chapter III Walking to Strengthen the Body and Treat Diseases

In standing posture, keep your feet balanced. In the early stage of walking, only the foot produced by pushing action is active, and it bears the verticality of our body alone.

There are other positive results and effects of the dynamic unfolding of this push walking, especially the power generation and calibration of posture balance in the central area of abdomen. (That's the original. I really can't read smoothly. Being abused while watching. I feel that the driving force generated by the hind legs has a mutual mechanical effect on the abdominal core muscles when walking. The core muscles of the abdomen keep the center of gravity stable, and the balance of the body is very important, so the support of the hind legs is very important. I don't know if this understanding is correct. )

In other words, the driving force goes well and the non-driving force goes badly. The latter has high lumbar pressure and bears the force from pelvis and hip joint of lower limbs. Abnormal exercise is often the chief culprit of serious lumbar diseases, such as spondylolisthesis. That is to say, in the process of non-pushing walking, the lumbar spine transmits motion to the posterior thoracic region and then to the back of the neck in an abnormal way. This mechanical transmission of the waist is abnormal because its verticality is produced at the back of the vertebral body.

Push walking ensures the normal transmission of strength in the central area of abdomen during walking.

Supporting walking is a very good tool to maintain hip function. The driving force generated by the pushing of the hind foot makes the hip bone on one side of the driving force swing to the hip bone on the other side. In this kind of plane diagonal movement before and after, the muscles are not relaxed, which can ensure that the vertical center of gravity of the body shifts from back to front. The author says that supporting walking can maintain one's joint system.

Chapter V Vision, Motor Function and Walking

In this way, the primitive motor impulse may be the pathogen.

The activation of mirror system begins with the stimulation of vision and action, and the development of children's feelings and sense of existence is closely related to their parents' initial caring attitude. So the posture of walking in early life may have been fixed by mirror neurons. As adults, our sports function faithfully reflects the early interaction with our parents. If the diagnosis is not made, some adults' abnormal and traumatic walking styles may last for a lifetime without being noticed. The deviation of these postures leads to the disorder of movements and the bending of biomechanics in constant repetition.

If walking is an unconscious spontaneous behavior, it has not completely lost some weak conscious feelings, so we can make good use of it and develop it. This is why learning a new way of walking needs to be carried out in a complicated plan, which involves the development of sense of existence, consciousness and overall proprioception. This acquisition is very important for the elderly to maintain good sports and physical vitality. Supporting walking broadens the horizon, brings a new sense of space, has a better state in a relaxed and happy way of walking, and feels awakened by a clear tension.
