Hi! Great question. Some people do naturally have duck feet. However, muscles move bones and joints, so by applying the right stimulus and by triggering the right muscles, I believe anyone can restore proper function and alignment despite their conditioning or genetics. Let me know your thoughts and experience and how you do with the exercises!

@davidstarbucksmith

You can try for sure! If she's really young (below the age of 12) then I also recommend having her crawl, bearcrawl, and walk a straight line on a narrow piece of tape on the ground for her balance, her coordination and to train her feet to begin to align straight ahead. Developing functional hip muscles and connection between the foot, knee and ankle is the key!

Yes, it's possible. Muscle contraction aids the flow of lymph and fluid. When your feet turn out, and especially if your feet pronate, you essentially "kink the hose" where the lymph might be pooling instead of pumping out. The intrinsic muscles in your feet may not be doing their job. Keep me posted on how the exercises go and how they help the swelling!

Sure! You're retraining your body to work as a unit in that last exercise. When the feet turn out, the powerful hip muscles aren't fully functioning and stabilizing your hips and spine as well as they could. As a result, most people's shoulders will round forward. This exercises addresses the shoulder rounding while engaging the proper hip stabilizers. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hi, thanks for your question and sorry to hear about the pain. The pain on the outside of your knee indicates that's where the pressure is, which means you've got some torque and rotation in your knee due to the alignment of your knee and the function of your hip, both of which are tied into the same bone.

@davidstarbucksmith

It all depends on what you mean by losing balance. If you're catching your foot a lot on things as you walk (tripping), then that's a lack of hip flexor engagement which is directly related to walking duck-footed. If you're simply falling off balance when you walk, that could be a lot of different things and you might want to seek some medical advice.

Hi, thanks for checking out my channel. Your tight thighs go hand in hand with walking duck footed because you're using your adductors and thigh muscles (quads) for hip flexion and that's only their secondary function, not their primary function. As you kick in the proper muscles for hip flexion, your thighs will relax and your duck feet will improve. Keep up the exercises and let me know how they go! And if you want to, try the exercises for hip tightness in the video about hip tightness which will also help relieve your tight thigh muscles!

Hi Jan, I'm not a huge fan of thinking about it all day because you'll just be using your hip internal rotators to get the job done. Depending on your femur position that could be unhelpful (especially with medial femurs). However, I do recommend a "functional walk" from time to time where you walk for 10-15 minutes keeping your feet straight. Otherwise, the exercises should also help to realign and reposition the lower and upper leg and hips.

Lots of potential reasons... Some genetics, but muscles move bones and they adapt based on the stimulus they're given. That's good news because it means you can train the right muscles to do the right jobs with enough of the proper stimulus (the right exercises).

Idk about that. I can't completely have straight knees. I started to get ceppses by forcing myself to be something I'm not. Now I have a V shape not W shape. So just saying no it's the genetics on how your hips align by birth.

Thanks for your comment. Genetics can absolutely play a role in how your hips and knees are shaped. However, muscles move bones and in my experience, given the right amount of stimulus over time, the bones and joints can better align no matter your genetics. Don't force it though... Let the exercises trigger the muscles to help restore balance rather than you consciously change anything. Keep us posted on how it goes and if you have any more questions let me know!

Duck feet is the most common walking style because 90% of the human population walks like this. From athletes to celebrities like Tom Cruise and Andrew Tate. The rest are either pigeon toed (toes pointing inward far worse than duck feet) or either have properly alingned toes. But duck feet is the most common with the toes pointing outwards.
