Hello Admin,
I'm rewriting my post again:

Hi all,
I would like to discuss on the topic " Why are we swinging our arms while walking/running?". From what I have read about the human evolution, Homo genus has evolved from the quadru-pedal movement to bipedal movement through a series of species (like Homo habilis, Homo erectus...). The reason being that the energy spent on bipedal movement is less than that of quadru-pedal motion. We.. Homo sapiens exhibit quadru-pedal movement during childhood (sometime less than 1 year). From the data I have on the evolution of Human brain, the portion of the brain which takes care of the fundamental functions remain same but with some minor differences. So, I guess the part of the brain which issues command for locomotion, still remains differentiably common and hence the movement of our hands, which were forelimbs of some lesser mammals.
