Reverse walk. This word may sound a little strange but after knowing its benefits, you will also become a fan of it. Normal walking does not put as much pressure on the feet as reverse walking does. This can help in keeping the body balanced and increasing strength as well as increasing concentration of the mind. Believe me, reverse walking has many benefits but it is also much more difficult than normal walking.
Actually, reverse walking improves the balance between your body and mind. When you walk backwards instead of a normal walk, your mind's full attention is on your body movements. This not only improves the balance of the body but also increases the concentration of the mind. Along with this, it is beneficial in reducing weight, is a panacea for mental health, helps in reducing back pain, is beneficial for knees and can also cure many other problems.
What did the study reveal?
Physiologist expert Jack McNamara of the University of East London has also described reverse walking as beneficial in a study. At the same time, Dr. Barton, Associate Professor of Physiotherapy at La Trobe University, Melbourne, has also said that walking backwards challenges the muscles and body in a way that we usually do not experience. In simple words, it also helps in establishing a strong coordination between the body and the mind.
