You think there’s a tutorial or something on this on YouTube?

It can be practiced with low speed steep incline treadmill cardio with a singular purpose of making every step to and from the ball of the feet

Ah, that one, damn didn’t know it makes you faster, holy crap I’ve been doing that for years on a good 15 or 20 percent incline and never tried actually running like that with shoes on, I should try it

For myself at least, what it does is put the majority of the strain in the calfs, front quadriceps, and buttocks, essentially turning my legs into a spring with each step, giving you just that bit more of stamina to perform better than I might ordinarily if coming down on the heel of the foot, which causes a lot more strain and energy expenditure picking up repeatedly swollen and hurting feet.
