Many studies have shown that walking helps to extend life.Many people who want to improve their health should often set their goals faster every day.Will this method of exercise really bring about the efficiency and speed of walking really greatly affecting longevity?
The research below gave us the answer.
The University of Leicester of the United Kingdom once conducted a study confirming the relationship between fast walking and longevity.This study lasted for 10 years over 475,000 people at the age of about 50.
After the statistical and analysis process, the study showed that the longevity of men walking quickly was 85.2 to 86.8 years.While the longevity of men walking slowly is 64.8 years.Fast walking women have an average life of 86.7 to 87.8 years old, while pedestrians have a slow life of 72.4 years old.
From this result, it can be noticed that men who have a fast life longer than pedestrians are about 20 years slowly and women walking quickly can extend the life of 15 years compared to others.
However, this study could not directly prove between walking speed and longevity.Because in fact, there are many factors affecting the life of each person such as diet, genetics ... However, it can be seen from this study that walking speed can still affectTo our health to a certain extent.
Regarding the reason the pedestrians live longer, experts explain that walking at a fast speed is higher intensity.Since then, the body has the opportunity to mobilize more, help burn fat better, promote blood circulation, the body is also healthier.Besides, walking requires the perfect coordination of many organs such as bones, muscles, nervous systems, cardiovascular systems and respiration.Therefore, when a person can walk at a fast speed, it means that these organs in the body are healthy and contribute to longevity.

The ground is hard and poor elastic.Running on the ground like that increases the loads of the joints of the lower limbs and is prone to injury.So, when running, try to choose the soft and elastic yard, which reduces the load for the lower limb joints and protects the knee joint.
5. Run the small step
When running, small stride will reduce the burden on the muscles, extending the running time.Most people running will use the ankles too much.After a few minutes of running, they felt local fatigue.The solution is when running, keeping small and paying attention to balance
