How Do You Find A Comfortable Walking Stride?
Many people walk around with steps that don’t utilize enough muscles and are way too little to get anywhere fast, or even anywhere at all. You can elongate your stride, which uses more of the muscles you have for a reason, without feeling like you are on stilts and find a comfortable walking stride with a few simple steps, literally. Walk naturally from one end of a yard to the other. Do a few deep lunges to gauge your legs’ full capacity. Walk across the yard again with the longest stride you can muster. Pick a stride in between your regular walking stride and your maximum lunge. Begin to swing your arms as you walk, until you fall into a comfortable rhythm as you practice your newfound stride. Consciously practice this stride every time you walk until it falls into place with no thought at all.
