Improve Your Walk by Learning to Crawl

Every human learns to walk by first learning to crawl. But most of us forget the lessons learned by crawling and develop poor walking habits such as leaning forward or walking with duck feet. In this video I demonstrate how you can re-examine the way you crawl to improve you walking technique. The source of proper walking technique comes from our center, or core muscles. These core muscles activate in precisely the same pattern when crawling as they do when walking upright. Since we are not at the mercy of gravity in the same way when crawling, it is easier to master or correct your core mechanics when crawling. Then you can apply the same movements to walking. This can help with many common walking problems, including leaning forward, anterior pelvic tilt, heavy heel strike, and duck feet.Show more

This video will help improve your balance, posture, and walking technique. I will show how to use your upper muscles, which are critical when walking. I will also show how to engage your lower abs properly when walking. I will also show how to properly engage your hip muscles when walking. The key to the waist muscles is moving with the proper timing and rotation. The key to the hips is to pull from the front of the hips rather than pushing from the back.
