The Gait Cycle & The Kinetic Chain

Humans propel themselves today through the hard concrete jungle the same way previous humans did for thousands of years on the soft natural earth. The difference is that your feet weren't made for standing and walking on hard surfaces all day.Z-CoiL’s spring coil simulates a soft natural surface when walking on today’s hard surfaces, protecting the bones, joints, ligaments and tissues in your feet, legs, hips and back.

the gait cycle

When you walk on a hard surface like concrete, your heel redistributes the force—twice your body weight into your foot and body much faster than on soft surfaces. The speed of this impact up your body (kinetic chain) is the culprit of today’s epidemic levels of foot, leg and back pain.

By cushioning the blow of each heel strike, Z-CoiL's patented spring coil reduces the speed of impact and significantly lowering the the stress on your feet, legs and back.

the force of impact from walking on hard surfaces

Unlike the environments our ancestors walked, today's concrete and other hard surfaces are much less forgiving, resulting in significantly more stress to the body. These thousands of collisions with the ground are only problematic on hard surfaces. The harder the surface the greater the impact delivered up the kinetic chain, causing pain and injuries.

Z-CoiL’s simulate walking on a soft natural surface when walking on concrete. Give your body a break and walk pain and injury free like our ancestors did for thousands of years.

the kinetic chain

When your feet are in pain, your body adjusts — and not in a good way. Typically your gait changes to compensate for the pain and discomfort, leading to over-pronation or supination, which only further compromises your body's ability to absorb shock.

When you are hurting, you change the way you walk, and away from the natural way for your feet to absorb the shock of impact. The more you do it, the worse it becomes, until you are stuck in a vicious cycle, no longer properly placing weight on your foot the way you should.

Z-CoiL breaks the vicious cycle and gets you walking properly again.
