Definitions
- the first part of the walking movement brings the portion 2c into contact with the ground, the base moving through the point indicated by the arrow to the position shown in FIG. 4b.
- the smooth, single-action movement is completed by contacting the ground with the portion 212, as seen in FIG. 4c.
- This smooth walking movement reduces both the time and energy required in walking a given distance and this makes walking more comfortable, quick and graceful.
