Walking Correctly Part 2 of 10: Toes Pointed In or Out?
In a full length leg stride it is imperative to have your toes pointed [Answer Revealed in the Free Download here] the whole time! It is easy to think you are doing this when your leg is in front of you. But what people miss is the technique when your leg is behind you. When your leg is behind you it is easy to turn your foot outwards. 80% of people will point their toes outwards and the other 20% will point their toes inwards.
If you walk with your toes pointed outward you will only be using more of the outside leg muscles. Like in Part 1 it is key to achieve full range of motion in all joints. If you are only using one side of your leg this is where shin splints, hip issues and low back pain will develop later. People who have their toes pointed inwards will have plantar fasciitis, toe arthritis, and tight front hips.

WRONG. The skeleton is MEANT to have toes point 10-2; pointing toes forward leads to knock-knees, imp[roper ankle, knee, hip & spine alignment. DO YOUR RESEARCH.
Yes, a lot of anatomy books show the 10-2 position. I have done the research and I conclude standing and walking like that will cause low back pain.
