7 minutes in and this is the most profound and useful athletic info that personally relates to a locked up shoulder girdle and hips from over 20 years of lifting
AC joint tear no surgery, I attribute my maintenance of balance to head over foot walking. Especially for balance between around the lower traps and mid back. Gait is very influential and important for spinal balance and just good walking did wonders for me.

I think the one take away I take from learning martial arts and dance. Is the footwork. And self discovery of flow. How to place your foot in multiple plans. Capoeria has been 1 of my favorite. The ginga base (contemporary) , at wide movement but in Angola the ginga becomes smaller/slower but you keep flow state. Ready to Block, /evade or kick set up.
I’ve been trying to figure out how to walk for a while. Plus I have all kinds of health issues many must be related to misalignment of my spine. Walking like this helps my mood and can already feel it loosing up my lower back
I had always found Weck's explanations hard to follow because he'd use onomatopoeia a lot, but since this video is long enough to show how he'd use analogies as a way to articulate his thoughts I find that pretty helpful.
@@truepeacenik yea sure, in my opinion he uses bigger words and phrases to almost confuse you. If head over foot truly was the proper way to walk, i feel that we would see more babies teaching themselves that when they learn to walk. But they don’t. Walking isn’t a learned movement. It’s inhibition. The only time I have seen head over foot walking is in runway models and heavy set people attempting to sprint.
At the end they were talking about getting numerical data. Where are the results? Did he ever make a follow up video? Even if the pro runner didn't improve, I can still learn a lot from this stuff. I'd really like to know how he did, though
The fact that you can avoid back pain by arresting movement, in some cases, doesn't imply that's the most efficacious or natural way. Let's see McGill run, or jump, or rope flow, or wrestle. My guess is weck does it better. Would ppv that.
Love Mark’s content but turning a 5 min video into a 50 min video is just never a good idea. And for some reason that shirt with the extended thumb hole sleeves just makes me wanna slap someone
Yeah I think he’s a super smart guy but you’re correct, you will plant and slide with the opposite foot, and bowl with contralateral arm. coiling to the opposite side you are sliding with. Your comment brought up a lot of questions for me, thank you. I wonder if the head over foot rule he states, still applies on the case of bowling. I would tend to say so, although the mass of the ball needs to be accounted for. Power from bowling comes from increasing the length of the arm and swing, this is done by opening up the shoulders and snapping them shut, as the ball falls with gravity. There is no time component that you’d want to coil for, but instead increase the distance the ball has to accelerate. But yes David would have a pretty nasty bruise on his leg if he tried bowling like that. 😂

Problem is, a lot of physical therapists look at the body in a very narrow view point. Many of them have been educated to believe that if your low back hurts, then just do core exercises. I’ve met good physical therapists and I’ve met terrible gait professionals. The solution to human pain is both simple and difficult depending on the individual. Keep an open mind, David weck has been in the industry much longer than a lot of these doctors. And if you don’t practice what you preach, then what eduction do you really have?
I tried walking like this and now I'm in a Romanian jail cell...
You need to be pinned to the top lol

Interesting, time will tell. Also a patent for what is essentially a pair of "maracas" (a musical instrument)? Sounds strange. Cheers

Curious what Stuart McGill would say. A lot of chronic back pain is helped by bracing your core when walking
He would disagree! All he wants is for a person to have neutral spine AT ALL TIMES. Almost inhuman..
The fact that you can avoid back pain by arresting movement, in some cases, doesn't imply that's the most efficacious or natural way. Let's see McGill run, or jump, or rope flow, or wrestle. My guess is weck does it better. Would ppv that.
If you have chronic back pain, brace to avoid pain, and fix the problem.
If you don't have chronic back pain, walk like a cat and lift heavy weights.
When do the new speed trainers come out?
i cant walk.. must try this..
Dave Weck is a treasure.
Mark, you should get Katy Bowman on your show and get her take on walking.

Those kind of jackets are great when you are layering clothes.
Agreed on the sleeves….
I like to diddy-bop when i walk!
McGregor strut is correct if exaggerated.
People probably think bracing your core is bracing your abs 😂😂 real core locking is potent & does not inhibit freedom of movement.
Ace Ventura had this figured out early
This guy does have some concepts i'm interested in learning more about. He is just not the best communicator.
I thought this was Dr. Oz at first 🥴. Still not sure 🤔
Dave weck says lats do wrist supination

WTF IS THAT THUMBNAIL
Why don’t they teach this stuff in school
I would refer to a professional, such a physical therapist to fix your gait.
So physical therapists are the only ones that have anything of value to offer with regard to walking?
15 minutes of trying to have head over foot has already fixed my gate. Simple and no cost, but you go pay a professional physical therapist.
Problem is, a lot of physical therapists look at the body in a very narrow view point. Many of them have been educated to believe that if your low back hurts, then just do core exercises.
I’ve met good physical therapists and I’ve met terrible gait professionals. The solution to human pain is both simple and difficult depending on the individual.
Keep an open mind, David weck has been in the industry much longer than a lot of these doctors. And if you don’t practice what you preach, then what eduction do you really have?
So you need to be told how to think? What a shame.
There is no incentive for them to fix you long term. They are insanely expensive as well.
This guy is a master of saying nothing by using a bunch of big words in the s+c textbooks.
His stuff is based on the spinal engine theory. Go read a book.
