Posture and pace
POSTURE IS SIMPLY CARRYING
YOURSELF IN ALIGNMENT
 Stand with feet hip - width apart and toes pointed straight ahead
 Straighten your legs, but keep knees soft (don’t lock your knees)
 Arrange your shoulders, hips, knees and ankles in a vertical line.
 Lift and broaden your chest by taking the shoulders back and
  lifting your side ribs
 Lengthen you lower back by receding you navel and leveling
  your pelvis.
 Firm in your abdominal muscles and Gluets, but be careful not
  to “grip”
 Keep your elbows bent to a 80 degree angle and near your
  body, fingers bent and relaxed
Develop a sense of your body
position without having to look
 Stand in an aligned position and scan your body so you
  become familiar with how correct posture feels.
 Ask yourself not “am I doing it?” but “what am I
  doing”
 Remember how it feels to have your weight evenly
  distributed on your two feet
 Soften your back over your kidneys but keep the chest
  lifting
Moving with Alignment
 Keeping your alignment, “push” yourself
    forward, leading with your torso “core”
   Let your feet follow rather than lead
   Allow your back foot to stay on the ground as long as
    possible, push off the heal of your back foot and swing
    it forward so it lands under you not ahead of you
   When you pick your back foot up, allow the ankle to
    relax before you place it back on the ground
   Let our hips swivel a bit, not like a model walking the
    cat walk, but like someone using a hoola hoop
You may find this a bit
uncomfortable
 Moving in this way will not feel “natural”
 You will have to constantly recheck and readjust your
  position
 Keep practicing each time you walk until it feels more
  natural
 Don’t forget to breath!
PACE
 Pace is simply a measure of how fast you are going
 The average person will take approximately 2000 steps
  per mile
 How quickly you take those steps determines your pace
Determine your pace = SPM

 Look at your watch, or set a timer for one minute
 Count one step each time your right foot hits the
  ground
 Count the number of steps you take in one minute
 This is your Steps Per Minute or Pace
Use a little math
 You can determine your pace for any walk by using any of
  the variables in the equation.
Example:
 Lets say you walk one mile and it takes you 20 minutes:
 You already know that one mile is equal to 2000 steps
 Divide 2000 steps/20 minutes= 100 steps per minute
                              OR
 Lets say you know your steps per minute is 85 and you have
  walked for 30 minutes, how far have you walked?
 Multiply 85 times 30 minute= you have walked 2550 steps
  or 1 ¼ miles.
