　　Posture while walking:

　　1. When walking, the heels touch the ground first to prevent the center of gravity from falling on the calves and avoid edema.

　　2. When taking a step, the heel touches the ground first, the center of gravity is completely transferred to the front foot, and then the other foot is lifted, which will make it less likely to cause edema.

　　3. When going up stairs, depending on the height of the stairs, you can step up to two steps at a time, which can tighten your buttock and leg muscles.

　　4. When stepping up the stairs, touch the ground with your heels first to prevent your center of gravity from falling only on your calves, causing carrot legs.

　　Things to note:

　　You should get used to tightening your lower abdomen when walking. When you tighten your lower abdomen, you will naturally lift your buttocks. This can prevent your abdomen from protruding and your buttocks to sag in the long run, and make your body curves beautiful. If you often wear high heels or stand on tiptoe, the center of gravity will fall on the calf, which can easily cause edema or carrot legs. Therefore, when stepping forward, you should let the heel touch the ground first to avoid calf edema.

　　To prevent body shape distortion, remember to keep your upper body and buttocks vertical when going up stairs or walking to prevent pelvic displacement; and get used to landing on your heels to prevent your calves from getting thicker. And if you want to beautify the muscle lines of your buttocks and back of your calves, you can climb two steps at a time to make your calves slimmer.
