How is ChiWalking different from power walking?
ChiWalking has similarities to power walking. There are a variety of ways to power walk. Most have you using a great deal of leg strength and pushing off with your feet. In ChiWalking you relax your lower legs and let your forward tilt and the rotation of your spine move you forward, not the push off of your toes and feet. When you push with your feet you’re more apt to get shin splints and other lower leg injuries and problems.
