Locking the feet during a walk

I read in the tutorial that you can lock the foot bone when it is flat on the ground simulating weight distribution. So far I haven't been able to get this right. It just looks weird.

Can you give me some detailed steps on how to do this correctly Please?!

Use of Lock bone for fix it like a foot is planted during a walk cycle only works if the rest of the cinematic chain of bones move (translate or rotate) reducing the length of the chain against the locked bone. If the chain try to enlarge the length of it then the locked bone would move. So lock bone have a non symmetrical behaviour.
