Most people think walking is simple — but the way you move can either protect your body or slowly break it down. In this episode, Dr. Nicole Addison explains why your hips, ankles, and big toe must extend when you walk — and why your knees should stay slightly flexed for optimal movement.

You’ll learn how these mechanics improve ground reaction force transfer, help you propel your body forward more efficiently, and reduce strain on your low back and neck. If you’ve ever struggled with back pain, neck tension, or tight hips, this episode will show you how every step you take could be part of the solution.

🎧 Listen in to discover:

• Why your big toe is more important than you think

• How your walking mechanics affect back and neck pain

• The hidden link between gait and energy transfer

• Practical tips to walk stronger and healthier every day

This isn’t just about walking — it’s about rewiring your movement so your whole body works better.
