How to Go for a Healthy and Safe Hiking?
1. Carry a pair of canes
Carry a pair of lightweight walking cane can help to reduce the wear on the knee in hiking. Because the cane can support a more stable walking, maintain balance and prevent falls or stumbles, largely reduce the chance of getting knee injury; On the other hand, walking with a pair of canes will lower the intensity of exercise and relieve the pressure on the knee joints, thus help reducing the wear on the knee.
2. Have regular rests
If there need a long time to climbing in hiking, such as climb stairs, you should stop and take a break from time to time. Because climbing for a long time will largely wear and tear the knee joint. Climbing for twenty minutes and stop for three minutes, which can relieve the pressure on knees.
3. Walking in smooth pavement
Choose to walk in the smooth pavement is also very important. The rugged, rocky road will exacerbate knee torsional frequency, thus increase the wear and tear on the joints.
