I have the same issue - wide feet and high arches that tend to pronate and collapse. I developed duck walking and hip and leg pain as a result. I'm making great strides (excuse the pun) with embracing the barefoot movement and strength and realignment exercises as he shows. I'm walking in alignment now in barefoot shoes and developing my foot strength and flexibility. As he says, I've suffered from the shoe industry's lack of support for wide feet. I'm now working on realigning my big and little toes which have partially bunioned due to narrow shoes. I really appreciate the increasing information out there - including in this channel to help with the rehabilitation of my feet and legs and hips. Thanks so much to Mark for sharing his journey and knowledge!

I just found your channel yesterday. So grateful that you are teaching and sharing! I am 38 yr old, and over the last year and a half have become mostly sedentary due to arthritis and extreme pronation. Got toe spacers and wide toe box shoes. Although I see more recent causes of this condition in my feet, I feel it is on some level due to a lifetime of wearing conventional shoes. We live in a world of normalized mild foot-binding (wearing conventional shoes). And also we are electromagnetically less in touch with the Earth due to shoes. Here is to our health!!!

An indian doctor proved flip flops actually help your feet. In third world countries where they mostly wear flip flops, flat feet and other foot issues are almost non existant. In fact, the scrunching action of your toes with flip flops is the same exercise they suggest to strengthen your arches.

It's mostly not because of flip flops but because of fingers being spread out more in comparison to a shoe. It's actually ridiculous how much shoes compresses our feet. Look up photos of people having no contact of the outside world and how their feet look. They have been barefoot their entire life and their feet look like hands.

Great video, i have flat feet so it's really useful for me to learn information like this. Also I can totally relate to the issue at 6:18 as a fellow rollerblader. To fix that, remove the wheels, then use a heat gun on the outside of boot where the pressure points are. Sit down on a chair and put the skates on - then if needed you can use the heat gun carefully on the outside while they are on. Don't stand up and put weight on them until the plastic has fully cooled down. Also try to avoid touching the metal frame when using a heat gun. Then just repeat if needed until they fit like perfect

I'm a sixty-five year old endurance athlete who has always had "flat" feet. My wife is always telling me I have no arches. But like you, I do. From many decades of barefoot running and walking and telemark backcountry skiing, I have developed very thick abductor hallucis (thank you for that) muscles. The alignment of my feet, ankles, knees, and hips is very straight. Following a knee injury in my twenties a PT trained me to have that same control over pronation and supination that you reference. I am old, my knees are trash. But I can still move my body through the mountains with a minimum of pain. I used to inline speed skate in custom molded carbon fiber boots. They fit me like climbing shoes but I retired from that sport after one crash cost me double shoulder labrum surgeries. Anything that prevents me from skiing has to go, so I donated the skates to the local ski team for cross-training. But I don't know that any of their athletes feet were as long or wide as mine. Love your videos and I agree with everything you say about footwear and exercise. Thank you!

@@GrownandHealthy I always wore wrist guards with a mirror mounted on one and a helmet. But I als used to tuck it off the Cherry Creek Dam in Denver every lunch hour. I can't prove this but I'm certain I hit 50 mph on a very regular basis. Yes, I am reputed to have a bit of a reckless streak. I was crossing an intersection and a cyclist coming the other way wobbled and pointed straight at me. I moved right and skated into a small drain cover that I didn't see. Then I was Superman sailing through the intersection. I put my arms out to protect my face as it happened too fast for me to react with tuck and roll. And that jammed both shoulders into the sockets. So just don't be like me and I think you'll last a lot longer than I will. ;-)

Weak feet and ankles transfers up through the leg causing pelvic tilt/rotation via weak glutes and further up improper thoracic muscle engagement up to neck pain. If one foot is good and the other is weak, the entire side of the body will probably have imbalances as well. Even things like driving can cause imbalanced and weak feet by poor posture in the seat, having the right leg positioned out front and the foot resting on the heel and contracting inefficiently to push the pedals all while the left leg sits dormant. Got to work the feet/ankles/calves/hips weekly preferably with bands to counteract a lifetime of gait and posture degradation

So yes lucky me, I’ve had knees that have been dislocating since childhood and my first major surgery was because my knee went out. I fell down stairs and ripped everything out laterally (to the outside side). The surgeries really sucked and I ended up with 2 more, a year apart each subsequent time. They did not fix my issues. Sadly I also had no foot arches either side, started developing bunions in my 20’s. I’ve had a total of 8 knee surgeries and 3 back surgeries primarily for a pars planar and facet joint fracture at l5-s1 on the left which along with radio frequency ablation to nerves took care of severe pain on the left hip/buttocks region but not on the right despite having it done x 2. I’m also hyper extended on my elbows and I can bend my thumbs back to my wrist. So - after 35 years running my ever living ass off ranging from 8 hours to 16 hours, I had to stop working as a nurse despite my children still needing some assistance with college. They’re in their mid to late 20’s now so they’ll get by though as a single mom, I do feel bad. I’m waiting for Tennessee to determine that after working all these years that I’m a legit case for disability which I am. And as soon as I can, the podiatrist is the first doctor I’ll be seeing because as soon as he or she gets a look at my sad, scary looking feet, they’ll be scheduling me for surgery stat! Granted I understand they can do the flat foot fix in office which would be awesome! Best of luck to all with crappy joints like me!

Thank you so much for your valuable content. It's opening our minds to something we have never thought about. Our very athletic and active 11 year has flat feet, an accessory navicular in one foot that is tender and really bothers him to the touch. In addition, he is going through Osgood-Schlatter. About halfway through a basketball game or practice, he's limping and we keep going through the cycle. We're not really sure where to start in terms of fixing things. The thought was first to do custom insoles and then see...until we found your content. However, we're not sure where to start first at this point. Additionally, I'm wondering if the feet issue correlates with the O-S. Would zero-drop shoes help him at this point or should we focus on something more foundational? Thank you so much!

Thanks for watching. I can't give medical advice, and You should consult your doctor. I personally found benefit from walking barefoot, as much as possible.

Also, for issues with the knee, you can look at "kneesovertoesguy" (on youtube), some of his exercises, like the "reverse sled" are excellent for knee issues.

This video was just what I was looking for. I'm convinced the arch in my left foot particularly has fallen over the years, maybe from my shoe on that foot being tighter (my left foot is a little longer than my right). My ankle mobility on this foot is not as good as my right (wall test, like 1-1.5" away). My meniscus on this same leg has torn medially, with no sudden incident either. I also have very tight IT band on this leg, quads/hams, and especially glutes/piriformis. Actually, the problems go even further upstream with my lower back and even lats/mid-back Do you think this could all be caused by lack of strength in my left foot? Or is it the other way around, with perhaps a pinched nerve in my back or glutes? I'm doing everything I can regardless, to try and fix it all. Only just realized I should be training my soleus as well as gastroc, so I probably have inbalance there too. My physio noticed my left calf is smaller than the right. Any help much appreciated!

As an extremely flat footed person, due to childhood obesity, no amount of sport and running or wrestling corrected my feet as we had so little knowledge of the basic exercises needed to regain foot mobility. You can brute force so much athletics with terrible biomechanics but of course there's no longevity. My first podiatrist gave me some rigid inserts at 10 years old, but they were useless for sports. It almost feels like you're born with flat feet but that's not true, a lifestyle allows them to become this way. In the end it was just knowledge, and discovering how malleable the body is.

I wouldn't complain, unless there is pain. If your Ankle everts (Heel is lateral to the ankle) from the rear viewpoint, that would be an issue.

Flat foot came from calcaneus, it's too small. One of solution is put something soft material under the heel in your shoes.

Some people are born with flat feet and it’s completely natural and does not need to be fixed. Don’t let people with arches convince you that what you were born with is problematic.

Thank you for your thorough and understandable explanation and teaching on fixing flat feet. I have had flat feet all of my life, (I am 71) . Have had 2 different pairs of custom orthotics which don’t seem to help much. What is your opinion on orthotics/insoles etc for flat feet?
