Walking Lesson For Creaky Knees

How you shift weight from your back foot to your front foot will determine the type of stress you put through your knees and therefore how much pain you will have while walking. In this video, you will explore your own personal tendencies for weight shifting and learn how to make changes that will reduce shearing forces in the knee joint. Shearing forces are what lead to joint breakdown, cartilage decay, and knee pain. Gaining the ability to reduce shearing forces with walking will allow you to walk longer distances much more comfortably.  The concepts in this video are simple, but performing the techniques can be tricky, so don't be discouraged if you are not perfect right away. Take some time to practice and see the changes you can make!
