When I run on the tread machine.. or even out in the real world.. I run my flat foot.. not on my toes.. How do I fix this.. I have a bad knee (work injury) and wear a brace... But just cannot get off the flat foot run.. Any suggestions.. :rolleyes:
 
Hi Redneck, how do you walk when you're on the treadmill? Do you roll from heal to toe?
 
hey redneck charger, think you can change the size of the image in your signature, it's sorta hard to read things with something that big being where you don't expect it

Unless you're sprinting or at least running crazy hard, you normally wouldn't run on your toes anyway. There's a reason why good running shoes have an insane amount of padding in the heel with much less in the toes, and it's not because good distance runners run on their toes. ;)

What problem are you trying to correct anyway?
 
You should land on your heel, and transfer to your toes. This is usually done so naturally I dont know how you would practice. Arent you a member over at itransforum?
