"Heavy" Feet

i actually have very arched feet and am pretty bow-legged. i usually hear the recommended cue is up and down, but doesn’t that seem like it cause stomping and therefore loud feet? do you know some other upright running cues?

and i’m alright at drop jumps and plyos, though i’m much better at just a normal vertical (though i tend to squat very deep before the jump which i’ve heard means i’m poor at producing the power i have in a short amount of time)
