I am not sure if you have seen the trend "retro-walking" online. It is becoming a new way of having beneficial effects in our body. The manner of walking should be in a backward motion, which I think can strengthen our back muscles. Although I would not do it in public. Some of these people are walking in backward in public. Would you feel comfortable walking backward, especially in public? Image Credit: images.squarespace-cdn.com

I think it's pretty stupid - and dangerous - to walk backwards in public.

I agree. They have still not said use stone to clear the poop from your hemorrhoids. Our cavemen used that...and they were so healthy. LOL

That seems so silly but whatever they want to do I guess . Not me though I’ll stick to walking normally.

Nope. I'd trip and fall down. Then I'd be in the hospital.

Are you kidding? LOL. If we were meant to walk like that, god would give us at least one eye at the back of our head. LOL

I would considered an oddball if I walked backwards in public.

I did see a bit of retro-walking. It is interesting to know how something simple as walking backward can have benefits. It is good to know it can help with balance and strengthening of different muscles. However, I do not think I will be comfortable doing this in public. I do not think anyone would be comfortable doing this in public. It is dangerous stunt and could get you even arrested. It can dangerous there or even at home. I may try out in a space that I am comfortable and is only few steps. Till then , I will stick with the regular walking than the retro-walking. Take care!
