One of the easiest and most effective ways I’ve found to use your entire foot when you walk is by doing this: imagine there’s ink under your foot, the whole sole of your foot including toes. then as you walk make sure you leave a foot print of your entire foot, don’t favour one part over the other just walk/roll  heel to toes.

This automatically takes your feet through their natural gait – heel strike to toe push off.

Notice how the rest of your leg feels.

Do your quads (front of thigh) feel more open? Can you feel your hamstrings (even slightly)?
