December Fit Tip - Summer Walking
If you are going to be doing some walking this summer here’s some tips to walking faster:

1. Use good posture. Walk tall and look forward (not at the ground).
2. Keep your chest raised and shoulders relaxed (shoulders down and back).
3. Bend your arms just less than 90 degrees and swing your arms front to back (not side to side as you arms should not cross the centre line) and by swinging your arms faster your feet will follow.4. Tighten your abs and buttocks (if you can ).
5. Try faster smaller steps rather than longer strides.
6. Push off with your toes and concentrate on landing on your heels, rolling through your steps.
7. Breathe naturally with deep rhythmic breaths. You should be walking fast enough so breathing increases but yo
u are not out of breath. Enjoy those long summer nights and warmer days!!
Thanks to John Maclean for this month's fit tip.
