【Text, Pictures/Excerpt from the practical culture "Practicing the palm is the best rejuvenation! 》, author Matsuo 。。。。 3} The movement of the feet, knees, and buttocks is the key point

I am a hip exercise expert. When I first started paying attention to the feet, it was because my feet felt strange and my hip exercise effect was not good.

I describe the hip as an engine that can generate powerful power. The palm of the foot is used to unfold the wheel, and this powerful force can be conveyed to the ground. If you want to walk smoothly, you must efficiently convey the power generated by your hips from your palms to the ground.

Moreover, the hips can "absorb the impact force from the ground when walking, protect the joints and knee joints", and the palms can "maintain a sense of balance during walking" and convey "button strength to the ground." If you want to fully utilize these functions, including hips, knees and palms, you must be in the correct position. Compared with foot and lateral joints, the knee is originally a less motility joint. Therefore, if the knee is facing inward or outward when it is bent, it will be brought to the knee more burden.

The palms, knees, and hips are in the correct position

The lines between the palms, knees and hips should be in a straight line, otherwise it will be in the knees, waist and other parts, causing great burden on the body.

When walking, the palm (foot heel)→ knee → hip line is in a straight line, so that the force can be efficiently transmitted and absorbed impulse force

The knee cannot be facing inward when the knee is bent (that is, the so-called X-foot). Reaching the inner side instead of supporting the body with a triangular surface will cause the burden on the inner side of the knee joint

{twenty one} {twenty two}

When the knee is bent, the knee faces outward, it becomes a single side supporting the body (that is, the so-called O-shaped foot). This will cause burden on the outside of the knee joint

Column Do not use "toe grip"

People who do not support their bodies with their palms will unconsciously grasp the floor with their toes to maintain balance. When standing alone, you need a great sense of balance to maintain balance. When we walk, we will certainly support our bodies with a single triangular structure, so people who will use their toes to grab the floor under this state may have been tempted to grab the floor with their toes while walking.

Reiterate again that the foot toe grip can destroy the softness of the plantar fascia (the membrane covering the palm of the foot), making the ability to absorb double foot impacts during walking poorly, so the foot toe grip is not advisable. Otherwise, it will eventually lead to inflammation of the plantar fascia and painful symptoms on the foot, which is what is called "plantar fasciitis".

The most effective way to avoid gripping the toes is to relax the muscles that extend from the calf to the tip of the foot. We recommend that everyone develop the habit of "self-massage when taking a bath" and continue to do palm exercises to gradually improve.
