Join me in trying to spread proper walking technique to as many people as possible. Basic Tips: 1. Posture: Keep the head elevated, floating upward Eyes should be forward with the gaze toward the horizon, not the ground. Shoulders should be back and down with palms facing the side of the thighs Pelvis is in neutral position, not tilted forward or backward Feet should face forward 2. Arm Swing Pay attention to your arms swing Arms should swing forward on the side opposite the swinging leg Arms should not swing across the body The arms should flow naturally. If you arm swing is not present, you are probably not fully engaging your core 3. Foot Position: The feet should face directly forward, parallel to one another Avoid having your feet turned out at an angle 4. Foot Placement The feel should place gently on the heel and then roll forward to the flat of the foot and then the ball Avoid crashing into the heel Listen to your foot impact. It should be soft and barely noticeable. A loud heel strike indicates something that needs to be corrected.
