The Length of the lateral stride is a result of “push” from the back leg NOT “reach” of the front leg.

Front leg reacts to a command from the back leg.

More intense effort from the back leg the longer stride will be due to the need of the front leg to match action reaction forces.

The COM speed signals to the front leg how far it should reach in order to maintain balance, gait timing, and fluidity

If you reach first, or coach reaching first, the mechanical timing of the lateral gait cycle is off.
