My dad always stressed heel to toe walking and I’ve had hip pain for years. Definitely will try soft walking!! And I’ll add that exercise to my morning routine. Thanks and hope Bob is doing ok

Could please show a video/clip of someone actually walking in the way you are prescribing here. I find it difficult to conceptualize the actual walk, since heel first is so natural.
@robertbissett

This is BS. You are right. Heel first is the natural, normal way to walk. No push off with the rear toes. Pelvis moves forward with the rear leg swinging forward. Minimal effort. Running is a different story.

Would keto tape work? My massage therapist has been trying to get me to see and feel when I lock my knees while walking. I have trouble getting it right and easily fall into bad habits if not keeping my attention on it. I believe your tape trick will do the job. Thank you!! Missing Bob. Very glad you are still here Brad I've built years of trust in you two
Quick recovery to Bob🙏🙏
Thank you guys. Hi Bob! I have Lambert Eaton my aesthetic syndrome and I have RA. I cannot get down into weird positions. But I can do the standing up one. I try to walk every day and it’s hard to walk on the front of my feet I will keep trying. Thank you very much you guys and by the way I’m 76 so I need to readjust a lot of my stuff. Ha ha ha.
This was helpful in my walking meditation. I definitely will start focusing on a soft knee!

Hi guys, I am mildly allergic to regular adhesive tape (looks like little red ants crawl around any bandage that’s been adhered to my skin). In subsequent surgeries I always request “paper tape”. I even bought some at The Dollar Tree for my own use at home.

Forefoot walking gait pattern is not a normal gait pattern, heel strike is normal. Forefoot contact in the gait cycle is actually abnormal.

How much do you need to engage glutes when walking, is it a subtle engagement of the muscles or maximum tightening/clenching?
Can you give us more info on what type of tape we can use once we’ve tried it with the masking tape?

Great! Glad you like the blurb :)
Do you have anything to say about the "barefoot" shoes? Some ppl say it helps with avoiding heel striking. But are they a bad idea for other reasons? Or does it all just depend on so many factors like what you are doing and where you are walking and how long you take to get used to wearing them?
👋 I like Mike’s shoes!what brand are they?👟
I think I must have missed what the tape is that is used for the application. Can anyone tell me? Thanks in advance.
Wow. I have been walking incorrectly my whole life. When wearing shoes I always get uneven wear and tear and shortly after holes in the heel area of the sole. Also, have been expierencing knee pain when walking long distances
Where is the tape to buy?
Was at the Dr today and told that I have both Iliotibial Band Syndrome and Trochanteric Bursitis. It hurts.. ha. I'm 68, and not liking this very much. The Dr recommended I watch your YT channel for exercise to help me. Can you please let me know which video(s) I should watch and do? Thanks so much.

I’ve been limping for 6 years Because I was put on a drug 3 different times for a UTI infection well It caused damage to my Achilles tendons I didn’t know that a bone spur was forming on my left ankle because of the damage and inflammation Both my ankles were so bad I hardly could walk to a room a few steps away , the pain was so bad and still is from my left foot now. I went to doctors that told me to use ice and they would heal Well My right ankle healed up almost back to normal My left didn’t I had a X-ray that shows a spur that’s stabbing my Achilles tendon Now the doctor wants me to have surgery I don’t want surgery Is there anything I can do to walk without pain?

You can just use masking tape
NOBODY walks with their knee straight, as you posit. have you ever tried that? Virtually everybody walks with their knee slightly bent and a gentle forward tilt from the ankles while landing on their heel and rolling across the midfoot to the toes. That combination absorbs the shock of both walking and running. You guys don't know what you're talking about. You might be the most famous physical therapists on the Internet but you're not the best-informed physical therapts on the Internet.
