Bro idk if you will see this but this video alone has helped me so much dude seriously. I have flat feet and I have a tough time so I’m trying to strengthen my muscles and learn how to have a somewhat normal gait. I will email you sometime this week. Thanks again.
Awesome video, but I feel that it is missing an important aspect. A section where you show what walking correctly looks like. A small clip of what a healthy person's walk looks like where they walk for 5 seconds or so. I can still implement your suggestions but also seeing how you walk would have really made it easier to remember.
After the pandemic’s isolation for 2 years, I felt like I forgot how to walk properly and it’s been causing me a lot of other issues when I picked up dancing more frequently too. I’m glad I found this video now - thank you for a very good explanation using graphics as well as actual demonstration. I particular like seeing how the arch on each foot lifts up as you twist from one side to the other.
I have been walking wrong for over 20 years of my life, my adductors muscles being as big as they are should be proof enough. Plantar fasciitis when I walk too much or run. I'm extremely grateful for this very educational video.
I'm about to write my bachelors degree in physiotherapy. You really nailed this one 💪 You're explanations coupled with the graphics worked really well!
This is really, really good! I've been looking for in-depth information on the muscular mechanics of walking for a long time. This is put together really well.
I had a knee injury in my left leg....I stopped walking properly after that.. When my left leg was healing I put all my weight on my right and started walking straight...that's where I went wrong .thanks
Thankyou. I need to do a bit more thoughtful placement of my feet and more arm swing. Im 67 and a few of my friends have face planted recently. I dont want to (😱) so I'm trying to learn physically how not to. Thankyou for your advice. It's very helpful.
Very good to understand, please make Squad with Weights on the shoulder I want to hear and see the perfect squad .. cause wanna see if my Technik and understanding is the same ..thank you !🙏
when I got orthotics he said I put my weight from heel to outside to the toe and I thought that was a problem this whole time due to my very high arches. I will have to pay attention to how i walk. thank you
Thank's Mr Physio, our US school marching band teachers need to know & share this knowledge during concert seasons! Many a day I have heard, "HEEL TO TOE!!! HEEL TO TOE!! HEEL TO TOE!"
If you spend some time walking barefoot youll see you cant really walk heal to toe. You need at least a mid foot strike or even fore foot. Walking heal to toe just destroys your heals.
2:27 key slide. For me it’s going to take practice for placement……too far back on the heel hurts my sciatic, but need that right spot to get the roll going along the foot
the last diagram is incorrect and contradicts the walking pattern explained. I agree with all except the tradition diagram showing the pelvis is forward on the forward landing leg. this would imply that the trailing leg in internal rotated and pelvis posteriorly rotated inhibiting the glutes and extension muscles, essentially pulling the body forward instead of pushing. a lot of physiological still claim this incorrect pattern and causes so many issues with weak hips and inhibited muscles.
I was off work for several months late last year and now that I am back to work my left foot has been hurting on the side part where you're describing as being the proper part of the foot to step on. So now I don't know how to correct my walking to get rid of the pain lol. My Mortons neuroma seems to be gone though. Maybe I need a new pair of shoes lol.
Could you elaborate on that? When exactly in the video is the 'wrong' part? (Just trying to figure out the right way to walk and I'm a little confused)
@@vvvii6153 Think of moving into a staggered stance as you’re walking. You want to be using your adductors as well to walk well, which should also utilize hip internal rotation. The video demonstrates a stride with a femur that is biased towards external rotation. You neither want to be standing nor walking like that.
I was told I walk very nervous and I ended up here. Says I walk too fast I thought I walked with a purpose. They says you should swing your arms and go slow. I understand but I'm trying to get things done. They are lucky I don't run.
our spinal cord/backbone are shaped like a serpent/snake that's why no single snake dare to harm me any species any size even so many times big King Cobras and huge Pythons were passing on my side and they just crawl nicely and quietly on their own way looking for preys as they sense your aura and your steps your heartbeat and breathe too and they know "who's the boss" stand and walk straight shoulder relax and chest a bit to the front, spinal stay straight naturally and buttock a bit up almost like a letter s (a typical alpha sigma gentlemen walk and stand posture). That's how king cobra stands too ready to attack anytime. Komodo Dragons are my friends too :) As our Sumatran Wise Ancestors has always said "Alam Takambang Jadikan Guru" (Wide Open Nature Let It Be Your Teacher/Guru). That's also why Sumatra+Java+Malay+Thai has deadly Tiger style Silat/Martial Arts.
Can spine issues like vertebral hemangioma, spondilosis and disc bulges heal by proper walking? I remember when i was a teenager a few people told me that i was exaggerately moving.my hands while walking. So i stopped moving them alltogether for more tham 10 years. That plus too much sitting screwed up myback... i'll move my hands and walk like snake. Thanks.
because many people don't feel their midforefoot part of foot what makes them ungrounded and causes postural problems and all other kinds of problems as brain need the full sensory feedback or some systems stop working and body starts using compensations creating imbalances main objective is to walk badly or not body wants mainly to go forward and survive first undoing these compensations can be really challenging we pay for all errors made even done unknowingly or because of trauma so old we didn't register it with memory
Dear Sir, Excellent from pure ergonomical point of view, may be good for sportsmen for walking disciplines. When at school our PT teacher also emphasized it especially for better jumping. Lizzard walking is also taught in Okinawan schools of Karatebut with a phased approach. Itś really god for fightingas zig-zag movement may deceive the opponent of our true direction of movement. Yert, I dońt think it would suit everyday way of walking, toavoid negihbours talking. Unfortunately , Mother Nature made us different from lizzard, they utilize their spines more actively. The speed walkers do so, as well. In my humble opinion, letś lieave it tosports, normal life is different. Paul, 68, retired instructor of martial arts.
The ultimate test is to walk on gravel effortlessly, if you cant do it, you are by definition not taking the path of least resistance as nature intended.
the hip of the rear, pushing of leg rather rotates inside as otherwise we wouldn't go straight. Allegedly, external rotation of the rear hip is wrong and incorrect and very often result of insufficient internal hip rotation. Too much confusing information, everybody says something else.
Am experiencing the same. So far am just trying to spread my legs apart as i walk and pushing through the glutes. I think the secret is hip abduction and the mechanics of the foot. I am trying to walk with feet apart and landing on the outside edge mid sole. Then flexing the knee outwards as i push through the hips and glutes. Feet apart at all times.
Heyyy what progress have you had? I also figured changing the way I walk could change my knees but I’m not sure especially since I’ve been doing exercises for a while with no progress. I’d really appreciate your help and btw were you born with knock knees?
@@Escalated401 so far i have to always consciously adjust many muscles within my body to achieve the desired outcome, legs apart, forcing my knee outwards, squeezing the glutes, bring my hip forward and upward by tucking my abs in, lowering my shoulders and then straighten the back. Its too much work so i do it sometimes but not always

Why did I enjoy this so much? Because if I'm just learning to WALK at this age...then the whole world is new! I can start again... Thank you sir!
that's awesome, good luck to you
This needs more views. There's a lot of advice out there telling everyone its incorrect to walk with your heels

learn also postural restoration pri
I would've like to see you walk a couple of step from different angle I don't really understand. Very interesting !
I think, pausing the video at each segment, repeating each segment and practising each segment along with him will help with understanding greatly.
This is really, really good! I've been looking for in-depth information on the muscular mechanics of walking for a long time. This is put together really well.
Great video. Really love the in depth explanation. Its given me some good body cues for when I am walking long distances.
Nice one, sir! I understand my imbalances much better now, and how they are connected
Thanks for sharing all of this, I really enjoy - and need these videos, and you are a very good teacher!

I like your vid. That I learn how to walk properly. Coz I had hip pain...get back on track...
Awesome...please more videos on proper walking...thanks!
Very good to understand, please make Squad with Weights on the shoulder I want to hear and see the perfect squad .. cause wanna see if my Technik and understanding is the same ..thank you !🙏
Beautiful description, I've been suffering form morton's neuroma and now that I am walking like you instructed it is going away.

Thanks.

Walking heal to toe just destroys your heals.
I hope you don't do that on hard flat surfaces 🤯
Thank you so much 🥰 💘
You are very smart. Thanks!
Athletes need to be taught stuff like this even if it seems very rudimentary. This is critical for avoiding certain injuries.
Thanks boss.
This was very helpful thank you
2:27 key slide. For me it’s going to take practice for placement……too far back on the heel hurts my sciatic, but need that right spot to get the roll going along the foot
There seems to be some discussion on whether or not glutes are used to push off in walking or not. What's your thoughts?
Thank you!

This is wrong. Heels should move to the outside, not to the inside. The hip should internally rotate, not externally rotate.
Could you elaborate on that? When exactly in the video is the 'wrong' part? (Just trying to figure out the right way to walk and I'm a little confused)

you mean to not swing to sides like skiing or on ice but in arcs to inside of walking line?
thanks for the video. should one make an effort to sway the hips a little while walking or rather not?
bit frustrating because you don't show the correct way of walking by taking a few steps to show us what it looks like
Land on outer edge of feet
I was told I walk very nervous and I ended up here. Says I walk too fast I thought I walked with a purpose. They says you should swing your arms and go slow. I understand but I'm trying to get things done. They are lucky I don't run.
Thank you. Can you do the same for running? Preferably barefoot running
I was under the impression front pad should hit first. Heel touching boarders on optional.

Shouldn't the heels swing away from the body to protect the knee ligaments?

Hello do you have recommended excercise to achieve this i forgot how to walk cuz i been working from home now
brilliant
Many physios are suggesting midforefoot walking whats your take on that? :)
Not sure what the rationale is. An ideal way of walking is well-explained in this video.
because many people don't feel their midforefoot part of foot what makes them ungrounded and causes postural problems and all other kinds of problems as brain need the full sensory feedback or some systems stop working and body starts using compensations creating imbalances
main objective is to walk
badly or not body wants mainly to go forward and survive first
undoing these compensations can be really challenging

life is extreme sport
you want to walk as nature evolved you too
first thing is to limit hard flat surfaces in own life lol
I have flat feet, does that affect my optimal "walking" technique? Should Istill roll to outside?
it can but you can still apply the same principle
is duck feet bad?
Thanks for the instructions! How much does your pelvis move from side to side form the rotation?
it's about 5cm
@@MrPhysio Thanks! I often think that pelvis rotation is being overlooked, so I was curious :)

Sir, you cannot promote making a heel contact first.
what do you have heels for LOL
if you can't it means you need to loose excess weight
