Walking is all about weight shifting ☝🏽

When you’re walking you have to be able to shift your weight from one leg to the other but do it rather quickly

If you feel hesitant about putting full bodyweight through one leg due to pain or not trusting the leg- it’s time to work on it!

These are two moves that can help if you do them 2-3 times per day. The most important thing is to make sure they feel OKAY ⚠️

If they significantly flare up your pain- you can try adding support of a kitchen counter or other stable surface ⚠️

If they don’t feel okay right now, there are other options to try!

Both of these moves help you to practice getting more confident putting your full weight through each of your legs 👍🏽

These also make for a great warm up before you head out on a walk- even if you feel fairly confident with weight shifting ✅
