Pendulum gait theory?

Hi All What do we think to “Pendulum Gait Theory” in Podiatry? I never heard the theory formally taught when I was an undergrad at QMU Edinburgh, however, it is always the subject of discussions with Physio and Chiropractic colleagues. The theory suggests that the lower limb doesnt swing exclusively from the hip, but rather, from the lumbar-thoracic area of the spine
