Instead of rolling through the step with your forward foot from heel to toe, your foot is flattening out prematurely. Either you are fighting stiff, heavy shoes or your shins are too weak to let you roll through the step. Symptoms
Your feet hit the ground with a slap. You land flat footed with each step and get no roll. You may develop shin pain. The Cure for Flapping, Slapping Feet
Get flexible shoes that bend at the ball of the foot. A pair of running shoes with a low heel is best. Before You Buy Walking Shoes To strengthen your shins, ankle, and lower leg:
Toe raises: Stand on a stair facing upstairs with your heels hanging over the edge. Dip the heels down, then raise them high. Repeat 10-20 times. Step Stretch Toe Raises
While sitting around, several times a day, tap your toes quickly for several seconds. Then write the alphabet in the air with your foot. Repeat with the other foot.

Before I go further I would like to give a quick "Healthy Feline Shout-Out", because I want you to be around for as long as possible!
Be your own role model & pro-self health activist. You've exhausted all of the diets, exercises, hair styles, over priced purses in repeated attempts to make yourself look good and stand out from amongst the ordinary. Now it's time you do something that could actually save your life. Make getting a yearly mammogram your top priority today and Learn how to perform a monthly breast exam on yourself.
It's fabulous to be the Fashionista and kicking-it with this seasons newest chicest fads & clothes, however if you fail to detect breast cancer in its early stages you could die. Take it from me when you are sick and/or dying from a preventable fate it's just sad.
This is your wake-up call & opportunity to do something for your inner health & beauty. Practice & learn to give yourself monthly self-breast examines and ask your health care provider about the new digital mammograms. The images are clearer and more efficient at detecting small growths earlier.
Fortunately every breast lump discovered seldom is diagnosed as cancerous, Thank God for that! Genuine self-health-activism is what makes you dazzling!
If your prefer a female technologists then request one, personally I don't feel that the average man can empathize with the female body experience. I can and I'm on your side.
It's incredibly noble, insightful and mature to heal from the inside out. It may sound like a cliche` but it's true,"When you feel good-you look good"!
The simple fact is that "Breast Cancer" is no laughing matter and if you don't protect your life-Who will?
