Toes are SOOOO important for everyday walking. Even your little toe!
Learn to use your toes when walking so that you can eliminate knee pain, ankle pain, plantar fasciitis, hip problems, even sciatica and back pain.
Most people don’t think twice about how their toes should work when they walk. Take a moment to learn how to use them right and it can make a HUGE difference in your balance and pain.
Have you tried to use your toes like we talk about in this video? Drop a comment and let us know.

*THANK YOU, DR. DAVID!!!!!* On a Tuesday, my knees were so painful at work, I felt like crying. I watched this video Tuesday evening, and started practicing right away. The very next day at work, clenching my toes as I walked around my office throughout the day, combined with firing my glutes, it was *NOT MY IMAGINATION* that my knees were not only less painful, but felt supported! Within 24 hours, I went from feeling like one of my knees might give out because it hurt so badly, to almost *FORGETTING* that I typically experience knee pain! What a blessing you are!! 😇

I love this channel..I was injured by a vehicle, that put me straight into stage 3 arthritis in both knees and hips. To avoid any further ortho surgery, after one THR and 2X foot surgery,I have been doing some of the knee exercises in particular, and I now I have periods of time with a big reduction in knee pain. No one in our UK NHS has ever shown me any of the exercises in these videos. I am grateful.

Years back I guy I knew walked like this on the ball of his foot and toes as he said it was natural. He looked like an ape. When I thought about it I laughed.. Charles Darwin and evolution. It made it look we hadn't evolved that much . Maybe wiser brain ? Homosapien . I wondered if it was correct and it was due to conditioning and training we walk the way we do ? Ie heels down. I'd also noted we are taught to walk or march with thumbs forward . Putting nuckles forward seemed to alter the posture of walking to toes ?

It is crazy to me how much using my toes and glutes while I walk is so incredibly effective. I have to go up and down stairs all day long and this year have experienced knee swelling and pain. I have been very concerned about the future of my knee. I found your channel while doing a search on KZfaq to see what I could find to help. I've taken your advice and am using my glutes and toes. Instant pain relief!! I am very pleased and grateful to have found this alternative!! It works! Thank you!!

I don't have much knee pain, but since my hip replacements 10 years ago, my balance has been compromised. I didn't know how to walk easily. I felt detached from my legs and feet. I hated getting in the shower where I felt unsteady. After watching your video I realized I was not in touch with my feet and toes. I took years of ballet and modern dance when I was younger but now out of touch with my feet! It was so easy to recapture the feeling of my toes and grabbing the earth or floor with them after watching your video. My balance greatly and immediately improved at 76! I add that we should walk around barefoot as much as possible, avoiding insects, rocks and sticks as much as possible. Squeeze those toes even when sitting to bring back the neural connection! Thank you so much, Doctor, for this video!!!!!

If you want to take this a level further: i learned from my therapist: to land om my toes first (with gripping) and then on my heals to secure a low impact landing force on my joints. Landing on your heels gives massive blows each time on your affected joint, landing on your toes is like landing on a soft cushion. Some runners also land on their toes first. Its like when you walk backwards, then you also land first on your toes or if you are sneeking around to surprise some one, you the also land first on your toes. Animals also walk on their toes not on their heels, your feet become very engaged and muscular in the process. You have a period of adaptation but then you don’t want to go back to heel landing first. Now I walk more than 30 years like this without thinking about it. Sometimes I try heel landing first to experience how it feels, its like shifting from a smooth luxury car to the cheapest crappy car riding on a very bumpy road with crevasses! Also try to walk barefoot as much as possible and place your feet more to the middle of your body to avoid left-right swings of weight with walking.

Loved both videos. Soooo helpful with knee pain. 1st time I heard of guteal tighten along with toe grabbing with feet going outward to help with knee pain. I was limping yesterday at work & barely able to walk after work. This has greatly improved the pain. I was always told to walk with feet straight or slightly turned inward was the correct stance to walk. I am so thankful for this video. GOD BLESS YOU FOR PROVIDING THIS INFORMATION.

The best thing you can do to save your knees is to rotate your feet to point straight ahead, or slightly inward, when you walk. Most people walk pigeon toed, with their feet pointing out. This causes them to be heel stompers. That is, their heels hits the ground first, providing little cushioning and jarring their knees. If you point your toes directly ahead or slightly inwards, your whole foot will absorb the shock and weight of each step and not jarr your knees.

I have started pushing my toes down into the floor with a slight grip and doing this same foot movement when standing on 1 foot. I increased my standi from 30 seconds to 45 seconds and it was exciting and so easy. I also started turning my feet out at 45 degrees when getting up and sitting down and the medial knee pain has deminisihed significantly. I don't feel so gun shy when getting up because I was looking for the pain to come. I didn't do any stairs yet, but it is on the agenda. I am also working on the glute squeezing, keeping myself aware when standing washing the dishes etc. which is a great time to practice. I will continue to keep you posted.

Your assistant is practically flat-footed. I am surprised that you did not mention this and how it impacts her walking. Thank you.

I have a toren mencius. I use the back of my heel, plus i take baths, not showers, so I can message my knees. This keeps my pain away! Oh I also wear a sleeve.
