Thank you! I am a former dance and pilates instructor but am going through multiple surgeries over 2 months. My dr forbade exercise and said I can only do slow walking around the house. Concentrating on your techniques will keep me sane as I train myself to move slower. 🙏🏼

Thanks again. Will take practice until the coordination becomes part of muscle memory. Paul.

It takes some time to build the muscle memory, but then it will have real benefits in the long run.

Excellent audio and video with superb editing. And the content expands the walking code with guidance I can use immediately. I very much appreciate your valuable work. Keep it up!

Thank you very much

Older guy walking the dog, seem to have a soft walk with a shorter stride. Younger guy seem to probably have that pelvic tilt as he was overriding I think.? Does the gluteus medius also tie into the external oblique and it seems like one of my sides has been less active than the other. It’s taken me about three years to figure out which side I was weak, side-bending to, and I’m having to actually make sure to engage that side to make the overactive side track straight when I’m walking or standing .

Thanks!

Thanks, Doc. I used to think that forceful steps would prevent osteoporosis. More force on bones more calcium deposition.

@ToddMartinMD

3 ай бұрын

Walking well is great for bone density. You don’t have to walk poorly. The calcium deposition that comes from striking forcefully is called bone spurs. Not good.

I've always had a heavy heel strike. I imagine after all these years of walking like that and a couple of injuries along the way, some of the key muscles are in need of some strengthening, thinking gluteus medius for starters. Love seeing that soft walk. Maybe one day.

Sounds great❤. I want you to explained I can achieve this walk. I feel so hard to walk. U mean I to focus my swing and walking leg.

@ToddMartinMD

If you follow these tips, you can do it. Practice on your waist and hip muscles.

Regarding the glute medius activation: can you explain exactly when they should begin to fire/activate--and, when should they stop firing? I think that I may be holding the activation too long in order to help with my balance on the weight-bearing leg. Thank you!

Hi Doctor good afternoon here in India this is another excellent video on how to walk smoothly.My question is how do you control the core movement when we are walking in speed or say walk normally in daily routine.

@ToddMartinMD

3 ай бұрын

This is the normal way to walk during your daily routine. I mention speeding up in the video. You speed up the rotation of the waist and everything else follows

I think mastering this technique is the key to be able to use barefoot shoe to walk outside.👍 I wonder if is possible adapt this technique even for brief walking on motorcycle boots, since over them the movement is more limited, while the rigidity of the sole varies significantly between the various categories of motorcycle for what where thinked.

@ToddMartinMD

3 ай бұрын

Yes, this is definitely the way to walk barefoot or minimalist. If your boots significantly limit mobility, that could be tough, but I assume that is for limited time.

I have watched several videos and attempted to utilize what I am understanding as I am walking, however, I am afraid of walking incorrectly now. So before walking, shouldn’t I strengthen my very weak glute and abdominal muscles with other specific exercises targeting those muscles?

If you are having trouble and want an exercise to work the muscles, I would try my Balance and Core Mobility Routine which you can find on the channel.
