TECHNIQUE TIP #7

• Take advantage of gravity

Walking is actually a series of forward falls, and we catch ourselves with our front leg. But a common walking mistake is leaning back so you’re resisting gravity. Instead, lean into your walk just a little bit—about 5 degrees—and the lean should come from your ankles. Don’t bend at your waist. To get a feel for this, try it while standing still. You can do this by standing comfortably with your back and head lined up against a wall. Lean forward from the ankles, peeling your body off the wall just to the point when you feel your heels want to lift. Then carry that feeling over while you are walking. Just remember to keep your head up and look 10 to 20 feet in front of you.
