How to Walk-6 Quick Tips #Shorts

How to Walk-6 Quick Tips: 1. Keep vertical posture with the eyes forward. No lean forward or backward. 2. The arms should swing straight forward on the side opposite the swing leg and then drop back to a neutral position. 3. Keep the pelvis in neutral position, without a forward or backward tilt. 4. The rear leg extends the body, powering the swing through. Do not power with the swing leg or you will end up duck-footed. 5. The palms should face the outside of the thighs, not the front. 6. Feel facing forward with a gentle heel placement and roll forward.

Proper walking technique is critical to maintaining health of the spine and other joints. There are very many patterns of walking that place extra strain on the body. These 5 tips can help you get started analyzing you own walking patterns so you can see if any improvements are needed. Poor walking technique is often unrecognized because it can take years for damage to occur and for symptoms to develop. Some of the problems that can be caused are plantar fasciitis, bunions and hammer toes, neuromas, ankle tendon dysfunction, patellofemoral syndrome, knee arthritis, hip arthritis, IT Band Syndrome, and chronic lower back pain.

My channel focuses on teaching you exactly how to control your core to optimize the way you walk and perform other activities. My system is called The Walking Code. I developed this system based on my medical experience as a physician for 25 years, but more importantly from the knowledge I have gained from teaching dance for over 2 decades and practicing Tai Chi for over a decade. These three practices have blended together to form The Walking Code.
