The Steps Of an Adult Takes Up a Lot Of Muscle Movement
We can all agree that walking can sometimes be strenuous, especially if we have to walk very long distances. However, walking is a form of exercise, and doctors even recommend some patients speed walk. We have figured out why long walking distances are strenuous, and this is because of the sheer amount of muscles involved.
The human body uses up to 200 muscles to take a single step. The muscles involved in walking are the quadriceps, buttock muscles, hamstrings, calf muscles, stomach muscles, and other secondary muscles.
