How should I improve my walking posture? （ウォーキング：歩き方の改善）

Today is clear and sunny. I still continue walking with an eye on improving my gait: I need to find how to walk lightly in order to reduce the load on my legs and waist. What I’m now interested in is the “Nanba Aruki” (Nanba Walking) which is introduced by Mr.Toshifumi Ueno. As the walking style seemed to be very helpful for me to walk lightly as long as I read the web site and watched YouTube, I have tried it but it does work well. It works very well on the level ground, but does not work on a slope. This is partially due to my hip joint.

今日は、快晴です。ボクは、毎日ウォーキングを続けています。ボクの最近の課題は、「どうすれば、負担の軽い歩き方ができるか」です。ヒントにしているのが「なんば歩き」です。このサイトの説明やYouTubeを観ると、すごく楽そうな歩き方に見えるので、この歩き方を習得すべく練習中です。でも、どうもうまくいきません。平坦な道ではうまく歩けますが、道が傾いていると、うまく歩けません。ボクの股関節が原因と推定しています。
