Walking Backwards To Lose Weight
Why
walking backwards could help you lose weight
Walking backwards could probably
help you lose weight in a long around about way. This is
inspite Obaid Karki, the guy in the video saying it will not. It will
not by itself lose you lose 10 pounds in a month but combined with a
diet plan like
Fat
Loss 4 Idiots (lose 40 lbs with Calorie Shifting )
it can lose you those 10 pounds in
less than two weeks.
However Karki does
bring to focus a very significant perspective to the usual
recommendation of “walk daily to lose weight”. And
that has to do with the effect that walking and has on our body structure,
particularly the knees.
Walking strains
knees, hips, the feet as well as the heel. And to add to the fact that
walking will not dent your excess body fat leaves the question, is
walking to lose weight worth it?
The answer can be
yes, if you are walking backwards.
Walking backwards
seems to combine the advantage of normal walking plus other benefits
while negating the disadvantages of normal walking. For example,
walking backwards relieves joints and yet it boost metabolism by as
much as 40% higher than walking forward.
But walking
backward is nothing new really. It has been practiced for fitness by the Japanese
for years. It is proven to be good for your hips, legs as well as the
trunk. Not to mention that 100 steps backward are often equated to 1000
steps forward. And according to the video 1000 steps backwards would
put you in the active lifestyle group. While at 1000 steps forward you
considered sedentary.
For it to be
effective you need to walk backward exactly opposite to how you walk
forward. That is to mean, instead of the heel touching the ground
first, the toes do. And instead of bending your knees you keep the
straight and easy. This posture completely relieves your joins, while
building the hamstring (back thigh muscles) calves and glutes (buttock
muscles)
An interesting
benefit mentioned in the video is the improvement of vision. Though not
guaranteed, walking backwards call upon your senses in way your brain
id not used to. This is because you are not used to balancing while
walking backwards. And for balance you body often uses your ears and
eyes. It seems the improvement of auditory and visual ability results
from this increased and unusual reliance of these functions. Frequently
walking backwards for a long period of time can literally somewhat
correct poor vision and hearing.
In addition, from
a weight watchers perspective, walking backwards makes you exert more
in a short period of time therefore acquiring the benefits of
exercising in less time.
However as we
always mention, weight loss exercises can only be as effective as the
accompanying fat loss diet.
