1. Train barefoot (indoor & outdoor) 2. Glute exercises (squats, hip thrusters, band exercises like side stepping) 3. Stretching (calf stretch, standing bend, glute stretch) Extra - low back weight

You’re right about the stretching. Lot of people don’t realize this but tight calves contribute significantly to plantar fasciitis. One thing I discovered is doing one long deep stretch, 2 minutes on each side, several times throughout the day produced a lot of improvement.

Great that you're promoting barefoot training to strengthen the feet, it's very rare in hiking circles. Many/most people already have short/tight lateral rotator muscles (glutes, quad fem, obt int etc) which often leads to lateral rotation of the feet aka duck feet (which also increases pronation and decreases gait efficiency). If you're doing lateral banded walks with feet rotated outward, you're strengthening the non-optimal pattern. If you focus on walking, even normal hiking with feet pointing straight forward, you reduce injury risk, improve arch movement, calcaneus movement, lower and upper leg rotation & torque thus increasing kinetic energy transfer which reduces muscle usage on trail and improves your endurance.

@@helpfulcommenter That would stretch out the glutes (which are usually tight) while working them along longer length of the muscles. If your feet are rotated inward, rarer but possible, that could be your TFL being too tight/held. Doing the movement feet pointed inwards would strengthen the TFL which could then resist the excessive rotation due to tight glutes, which could help balance the internal (medial) and external (lateral) rotator muscles. Same as if you have shoulders rotated forward due to work position, too much desk work etc, you want to open up the chest, lengthen pecs and shorten/strengthen rhomboids. It's all about finding the balance for that neutral position.

I have ITB with multiple PT sessions and definitely think people under estimate the importance of simple body weight movement exercises and stretching. I definitely stretch after every long hike.

I already suffer from planter fascitis, however just now walk about 4/5 miles per day on average, I can do about 8 miles no problem. But I'm training to do a 24 mile walk over 2 days in a few months time. Any suggestions? I'm scared I hurt my feet. I currently just wear trespass trainers, I need the arch support, can no longer wear flat shoes, just wondering if any hints or tips to help me train

Do you recommend going on big backpacking trips with barefoot shoes? I usually hike barefoot and have weak ankles. However, I'm going on a 100 mile backpacking trip in Yosemite and I'm wondering what my shoe choice should be

Curious as to whether you use/ recommend the rest step technique It can be a god send when walking over rough/ steep terrain and the benefit is noticeable the more weight you carry

Tall boots. "Protecting" the angles at the cost of 100% chance is knee pain. When going down, human foot should become straight. It is impossible in high boots that restrict full range of motion of the feet. So the knees have to take the load that the the ancle (calf muscles to be precise) are design to handle.

Same. Worst pain of my life was during this, 10 miles left on my hike and had to push through it. Was injured with PFS for a year, had to strengthen the inner leg muscles with PT and decrease tension in IT band with stretching and rolling. Also, being judicious on using trekking poles and not going knees over toes has helped me since.
