How to Walk Properly Dumbbell Walking Exercise with Todd Martin MD

2 years ago
6

Improve your walking technique by practicing your walk with light dumbbells. This practice can enhance the neuronal connections between your mind, your core, and your arms and legs. This will help the timing of your movement, allowing you to walk more fluidly. It will also quickly point our any obvious mistakes like walking with your feet turned out (duck-feet), cross arm swing, or leaning forward. If you do have issues with the way you walk, practicing the timing I give you in the video can help you correct them.

Please leave a commend and let me know how you like the exercise.

Practice Tips:
1. Keep vertical posture with the eyes forward
2. Keep the shoulders down and relaxed
3. Level your pelvis
4 Keep the knees and feet facing forward
5.Move from your center
6. Avoid pushing
7. Avoid leaning

Improving your walking technique can keep your spine properly aligned and improve your posture. It will reduce stress on you back, knees and feet. Many causes of joint pain can be caused by poor walking technique, and most people do not realize it. Back pain, hip tendonitis and arthritis, patellofemoral knee pain, knee arthritis, plantar fasciitis, falling arches, and many other problems can be triggered by poor walking technique. If you develop one of these types of pain and it was not related to a specific injury, it is likely that your walking technique plays a major role. The only long term fix is to correct your walking technique. The Walking Code series of videos is designed to help you correct your walking technique. These videos are provided free of charge, but I do appreciate those of you who express your gratitude by joining as a member. This helps support the channel.
