Every step you take may be as important as every breath you take. Each breath connects you with life on earth. Each step connects you with your physical life on earth.
Mathematical precision of movement is necessary for the proper functioning of any machine; otherwise the system would be prone to breakdowns and malfunction. Human beings are machines, yet so many fail to utilize their bodies in the proper way mechanically. So many structural ailments of the body can be directly attributed to how individuals connect to the earth with their feet and subsequently how they function.
Ideally we connect with emphasis on the front-foot area (pad), while focusing on moving our energy forward off the heel.
This promotes proper structure (body symmetry, balance and stability) and proper body mechanics (torque and fluid movement). Landing with energy moving back toward the heel promotes an inward moving butt--which not only creates unhealthy torque on the system , but also interferes with the natural flow or transfer of the energy created by the feet.
As a result, movement (based on efficiency) becomes more laborious and moves outside of the natural (mathematical) rhythm of the body. This promotes poor posture, symmetry and will lead to physical issues over time. For athletes, improper structure diminishes athleticism and makes those in violation more susceptible to injury --especially the knee and back variety.
Everyone should learn to respect the power of every step on earth. It will change the way you operate physically (as a machine), the way you look and the way you feel.
