ergonomics of walking

Ergonomics of walking involves understanding how our body moves efficiently and comfortably. It focuses on proper posture, foot placement, and stride to minimize strain and prevent injury. By maintaining a balanced posture—keeping the head up, shoulders relaxed, and core engaged—you help ensure smooth movement. Proper footwear and walking surfaces also play a role in reducing impact and improving stability. Overall, ergonomic walking promotes energy efficiency, reduces fatigue, and supports long-term joint and muscle health by aligning your body’s natural biomechanics with your walking technique.
