Newsroom, December 23, 2025:

People across India now try walking backwards in parks and gyms. This simple shift reduces stress on the knees while engaging core muscles more.

Experts note it helps those with early joint issues or poor posture feel better quickly. Research shows short sessions improve balance and heart fitness.

This low-impact move eases pressure on knees while firing up quadriceps, core, and calves differently. Studies show it cuts joint stress, aids osteoarthritis recovery, and boosts coordination fast. Short sessions on treadmills or safe paths deliver quick gains in posture and heart health.
