Note:

Moving Our Body Parts – Running and Pushing

Running:

Running is a physical activity where we move our legs quickly.
We should run with our back straight, arms swinging by our sides, and looking ahead.

Techniques for Running:

We must always maintain an upright posture while running. Keep your back straight and your head facing forward.
We should swing our arms naturally in synchronization with our leg movement.

Pushing:

Pushing is a forceful action to move something away.
When pushing, we need to keep our back straight, and apply force on the object we are trying to push.

Techniques for pushing

Hand push: always place your hands on the object you want to push, applying force through your palms. Keep your back straight and use your legs to assist in generating power.
Shoulder push: Lean into the object with your shoulder and use your body weight to exert force.
Leg Push: Position yourself behind the object and use your legs to push against it.

Safety rules in running and pushing

When running always keep your eyes forward and be aware of your surroundings. Look out for obstacles or uneven surfaces on your running path.
Before pushing an object, check its weight and stability. Make sure you can handle it safely and that it won’t tip over or cause injury.
