Hey man I just want you to know this video honestly changed my life. I have been trying to piece this puzzle together watching maybe close to a hundred hours of exercise and physical therapy videos, getting massage therapy, seeing a chiropractor, making my workstation as ergonmic as possible, and still be in pain or fall back into the same patterns. Your videos are life saving and I found this one right before I began to pursue dance classes to try to expand and heal. Thank you for all that you are doing

Man I gotta tell you.. I suffered a fibula dislocation as a teenager and it's been plaguing me for years. My chiropractor can always fix it, but it just slips right out again. I came across your videos and realized I've been heel striking all my life. Even when I run.. Now though, it's staying. I've been walking with my forefoot and everything's changed. Even when I run! So, thankyou. Thankyou for teaching us.

The first day I tried walking with forefoot strike my calves and hamstrings were burning so much! I engaged those muscles that has been asleep for so much. But it has been so freeing, and just the day after I could appreciate how natural is walking this way. Now I feel more confident, more healthy, more high and my posture while walking has improoved a lot. I used to hunch my back all the time and had to actively think in order to keep it straight. But now it is just a direct consequence of the more steady and balanced forefoot walking. My lower abdomen muscles used to cramp all the time as I never stretched them, and this problem has disappeared as well. I can't thank you enough. This is life changing!

After having chronic leg pain since going back to the gym for about a month I started doing forefoot walking on my treadmill warmup at the gym today. It felt strange at first but I started to feel capable of going about 10% faster due to the foot positioning alone for the same effort. it definitely pulled in a lot more muscles in my lower back and lit up my legs as well. then I did my workout and so far no back pain. thanks you so much for posting this video.

This is soooo underrated piece of information. You have a very intelligent approach to these things, I'm fascinated really. I am flat footed, bad eyesight due to work, had several injuries due to combat sport few years ago (Tore ACLs few times). Because of all of that my back became stiff and fuc*ed up, I can't sit, can't walk. I'm in constant pain. I started to workout again but I noticed that the first thing I needed to do is to reengineer myself to have a functional frame that is able to function properly (I study mech. engineering, so It was very natural for me to come to that conclusion, that's why I don't focus on building muscles primarily anymore). Everywhere I tried to look for an answer I noticed that nobody focuses on stuff like this. And doctors don't know sh*t either. I'm going to watch all of your videos from now on. Keep doing this, you are needed! Best regards from Croatia. And thanks, wish you all the best in life!

Decades of conventional shoes have left weak and compromised toes, feet, lower legs, super tight hamstrings, accompanying pelvic tilt, week hip flexors, and tight lower back. Your breakdowns have been and continue to be very helpful in my recovery. Thanks again.

Children naturally forefoot strike. I started wearing Vibram five fingers shoes about six years ago. It was hell in the beginning, but it literally cleared the plantar fasciitis and bunions that I was forming. I will never ever go back to normal shoes again. I own about 30 different pairs of Vibram five fingers shoes now! I get them on eBay, because a lot of women try them out and then don’t like them and then end up selling their practically brand new shoes!! Barefoot shoes, going barefoot, literally changed my life. Thank you for this video. Most people think I’m crazy.

hey bro, I stumbled across your channel about 10 days ago. this walking technique has been a life changer for me. I have gone on two long walks, the first went ok but not having the right shoe (zero drop) caused blisters on 3 spots in my feet. the second walk went superbly well. I had to keep reminding myself to strike on mid / forefront first. I'm still trying to make the adjustment as transforming from heal strike to mid section does take time. THANK YOU!

I suffered a spinal cord injury from a near fall on a wet surface, and could not get help. Long story short; I used walking up hill to realign and strengthen my spine. It was clear to me that I was unable to walk without engaging every muscle of tensegrity. This angle stretched my spine and tightened my lower abdomen. I focused on stacked erect spine, engaged abdominals and pushing off with lower glutes and toes of back leg, rather than climbing. I leaned back to that I was not bending forward. I invested in Zero shoe and learned how to walk all over. One step at a time with lots of concentration and tears. Thank you for teaching humans how to properly use their bodies!

You can try getting a flexible sole barefoot shoe with zero drop, and then get a thick cushion sole inserts to put in there. I actually bought some cheap water shoes at Walmart with a thin sole but then put in cushioned sole inserts in them. I am still able to bend my foot in the middle when I walk in it has the zero drop. But you can try this since you have to walk on cement floors. It will still help though for you to do this much and to change how you walk like in the videoBecause you will begin to land properly on the hard floor

I’m the only person I know who walks this way except one girl on my high school basketball team that just walked like this naturally no matter what shoes she was wearing. This was back in the late 90s. I had a bad neck/jaw injury in 2002, and I had to stop doing all activities besides sitting, lying down flat, or walking. In 2009, I switched to Merrell Vapor glove shoes, and my spine and stability got stronger. I started walking properly on my forefoot, and the first 2 weeks were rough. My feet and calves burned! How much atrophy in those poor muscles I had despite being a 2 sport D1 athlete in college and in the Army afterwards. It’s criminal that we’re taught to walk wrong by our shoes. I remember hating shoes as a toddler; they made me feel clumsy, uncoordinated, and bored. Now I know why.

Oh my god!!! This is how I used to walk as a little kid. But my babysitter used to yell at me for walking this way. Then years later I was in high school marching band where a heel strike is REQUIRED to march. Since then I’ve been having horrible back and knee pain, to the point where I walk with a cane at 17 years old, and I can’t walk in a straight line. But I just tried to walk in a straight line with this method… and I can do it!!! Obviously this doesn’t fix all of my underlying issues that causes my chronic pain, but I legitimately haven’t felt this good in years. Thank you so much man.

Sometimes it still feels like I am walking like a marionette, but I believe after a few weeks of practice it will feel naturally. Backpain seems to become better already after the first 10 km of very slow and conscious walking practice.

This just makes so much sense to me. If you look at animal anatomy, they don't have a heel. The back paw is the pad on the the front of the foot and the toes. Their heel is basically a joint.

Thank you so much for your videos. I’ve just found the barefoot community as I try to fix my plantar fasciitis. Your videos are so informative and helpful. Im trying to walk as you suggest. It takes a lot of practice. I haven’t perfected it yet. (I have to undo 60 years of walking incorrectly) but I’m working on it. Thank you!!! 🙏💜🙏

This is an absolutely fantastic video. You provide a very in depth explanation explaining why not to heel strike where other videos just say "you should heel strike" and leave it at that. Instantly subscribed. Do you know of any drills or exercises to help train the body to forefoot strike?

I only use forefoot walking on slippery surfaces especially during winter. Never thought it would be beneficial to make it a habit. Will try to make a conscious effort to do it and see if it works for me. Thanks.

Thanks for the video. I have been doing this a few daya now and am exhausted from all the new muscles being used but I do feel better though still awkward. But even after a few days, when i try to walk heel first again my body complains. I am still doing it consciously too and that is exhausting as well.

You have the best videos I’ve ever seen to demonstrate proper walking…wearing heavily cushioned shoes my whole life I now realise has encouraged laziness…because we rely on the cushioning instead of proper form. I’ve always had problems with shin splints and pain even just walking - and seeing this it’s no wonder. I hope it’s not too late for me because I’ve always wanted to run but injuries have put me off.. you’ve made me aware of what should have been obvious all along. Thanks again for these great videos!…

My plantar fasciitis led to an awful shooting pain from shoulder to head. Bought a book, changed how I was walking, was healed. I did this like ten years ago and only wear baretoot shoes since than. Give it a go, it works

I was a letter carrier for ten years and never had any proper instruction. Injuries were usually attributed to over use while carried a load but these instruction probably could have reduced short and long term injuries substantially for me and my co-workers.

I find the posterior pelvis tilt more common. Most people sit on their butt, not on their sitbones and so erase the lower back curve

When you forefoot walk, you appear so much lighter. The striking style seems jarring. Crazy to think my chiropractor told me to strike but lift my legs higher to engage my glutes. Almost feels like it's a more jarring version of the striking style they taught. This is eye opening! Thank you

I advise everyone (Flat Feet included) to wear barefoot shoes or go Barefoot as much as possible. These shoes not only allow your feet freedom of mobility, but they allow you to recieve the proper feedback of your movement for adjustments. They have helped my Feet, immensely.
