Distributing your body weight correctly. One of THE most important aspects in having a healthy training life, a pain free body and a long movement career is to focus on optimal alignment and to work hand in hand with gravity. So what does it actually mean to “distribute your weight onto your heels”, and to “use the back sling”? And how can you practise this every day yourself? Keep this principle in mind at all times, whether you’re running, cycling, playing tennis, doing your ballet barre or singing a lovely tune: keep your weight distributing through your heels and engage the back sling, supporting your body from its “back wheel drive” power.
