       TIPS ON WALKING TECHNIQUE

      Start slowly to give your body a chance to adapt to the demands of walking. Once you’re in full swing, bear in mind the following tips:

       Land on your heel and roll through to push off with the forefoot

       Don’t overstride – shorter, quicker strides are more natural

       Keep your abdominals gently contracted, your chest lifted and shoulders relaxed as you walk

       Swing your arms with approximately a right angle at the elbow joint, swinging them faster to speed up your walking pace.
