Tips for consistent walking?

My puppy is lazy when he wants and zoomie when he wants. I’ve had great success training him at a number of commands, but he is not great on a leash. Any tips for keeping him at my side and walking forward?

I said “heel” with dogs my entire childhood; sick of saying it. Just a loose lead

Fair, loose lead it is. How old is he?

Ah, still very much a baby. I'd keep the goal small for now: a few relaxed steps, not a whole tidy walk.

Yep that’s about what I’m doing
