- Chin up. Your gaze shouldn't be aimed at your feet, no matter how snazzy your sneakers are. Instead, focus on a point about 10 feet ahead of you. This will keep your stride longer and your neck comfortably in line with your spine.
- Activate your abs. When you engage your core — pulling your belly button toward your spine— you automatically trigger good posture.
- Squeeze your glutes. Your backside literally propels you through your walk. To get the most oomph — so you can go longer and faster — keep your glutes tight. Bad visual, good strategy: Imagine squeezing a winning lottery ticket between your cheeks.
