Every living being moves in a unique way — this pattern is called a gait cycle. 🐾
A gait is the natural rhythm of how an animal (or human) walks, runs, or moves its limbs in coordination. From a cat’s silent steps to a horse’s trot and a human’s walk, each gait is designed for efficiency, balance, and survival.
In humans, a healthy gait keeps joints aligned, distributes load properly, and prevents injuries.
When gait is disturbed, pain and inefficiency follow.
Understanding gait helps us move better, train smarter, and stay healthy for life.
