Overcoming the walking bobble

I am trying to do a simple animation that causes the upper body of an avatar to remain relatively motionless while (s)he walks. For example, having a hand grab the handle of a wagon and pull. If I were to attach the wagon to the hand now, the wagon would be all over the place.

I tried in avimator to adjust in the second frame the torso above the waist as well as repositioning the arms. But still, when I animate my av with this pose, then walk, my hands bobble. Am I doing something wrong? Or do I just need to make an entirely new walk animation?

Thanks,

When you let your avatar walk, the avatar_walk, the built-in animation is also fired. You have to let it override the animation. So make sure you moved all parts of torso at the second frame. It is bobbling part that is most suspicious.

Thanks. I must've been tired when I tried last night. I tried again today and it worked fine. I must've missed either hips or shoulders.
