I have problems with my feet. metatarsalgia and a bunion. Right foot Arthritis in big toe. 2 operationy later not much better. Nobody told me to excersise the muscles after my Op. I believe from watching your video excersise help. Why not you excersise other parts of the body. I didn't realise it takes such a long time to get your feet back in shape. Also I wore toe spacers at night but I can't wear them all night yet. Thank you for such an informative video. I wish there were more indept videos like this. Keep up the good work.

Since birth, I've had a slight deformity in one leg, particularly noticeable in the left hip where there's a valgus, and the left knee displays varus due to two previous instances of a broken tibia. I'm wondering if exercise could be beneficial for my condition?

I have been thinking that inversion and eversion are some under appreciated functions of the foot. 2 of the 6 directions it can move. Its probably important for non flat terrain as well as direction change. I have been training by running in tight ~15 foot circles (clockwise and counter clockwise) and i can really feel the transverse and longitudinal arches. Also its been cool to target the medial and the lateral gastrocs independently. Just tried looking for some videos on this phenomenon and for example the only videos i found for strengthening the posterior tibialis (powerful inverter) are for healing tendonitis and im pretty sure this muscle would be crazy strong in people who had to navigate non flat terrain

I have looked at your recommendations for best shoes for bunions and they're not very good. Crocs are too spongy and aggravate neuromas. The two running shoes either have an elevated sole or a toe box that narrows and bunions tend to ride on the edge of Birkenstocks and they have rigid, structured arches. I have big, knobby bunions and I couldn't wear any of those. It took me three years to get into bare foot shoes and lose my structured arches. It's hard to find bare foot shoes that are wide enough in that area, though.

Just now seeing this video but I figured this out by myself my feet were really really super pronated to the point where my knees dropped to a position that was roughing 2. 1/2 inches Lower than it should be. This comes from sitting down (weak glutes/ core) so much from school and video games I’m not completely done fixing it but I’m almost there been a month and a half

When I keep my feet loose (not keeping on ground) I see little misaligment in my toe but when I stand on ground my toes are aligned in right way. I have flat feet and my right toe is more misaligned than the left toe. I also feel more overpronation in my right feet as compared to left feet. How do I fix my flat feet?

I hate that I got custom support soles as a kid as a permanent solution. That is now more than 14 years ago, and I still have difficulty walking without. I've been spending half a year strengthening my feet and toes to be able to sport again. Happy to say that I can run for 2km now without pain I got pretty severe shin splints/MTSS, and really feel that the cause is in my feet and ankles, which are probably underdeveloped at this point.

My Mom has had bunions as long as I can remember. She also has to wear compression stockings during the day. So she could never wear toe spacers under them because it hurt too much. The part in your video about wearing them at night while you sleep will be a pleasant surprise for her!

Heel striking has joined the chat
@VRietySociety
@VRietySociety Ай бұрын
You should NOT change your natural strike. Firstly your body will naturally gravitate to the most efficient strike for you as you run. Changing it will massively increase the risk of injury case because A: it's not efficient bio-mechanically for you as a individual. and B: it will use other muscles that are not used to the load and subsequently drastically increase the risk of injury. Heel striking is not bad. Forefoot striking is not "more effecient". Most Pro's and by most i mean like more than 80% (maybe 90 i cant remember the exact stats) heel strike. If you just look at marathon,half marathon,5km podium's then the amount of heal strikers increase and forefoot decreases. Forefoot striking in pro's is only around 1% and very few ever have made it to the podium. I wonder why Forefoot striking and midfoot striking also have their own issues. There is no such thing as the perfect foot strike. So stop trying to change it. Also cadence WTF? people should really stop with the retarded oh this is the perfect most efficient cadence or run at this cadence to achieve this effect....NO. The cadence required will differ based on the pace and the individual's bio-mechanics. is person A is very effecient at 180 at 4min/km pace then he will probably need to run at 195 at 3min/km pace (its also not a linear increase or decrease) and person B might be very effecient at 185 at 4min/km pace. Also just giving cadence? wtf? Please don't make video's on a subject and then provide pseudo science as guidance.

I'm so jealous of people that can use these videos to fix their arches. I have tibial varum, and a flexible fallen arch, or something like that. It's fine on all but the second gait stage, is what the podiatrist told me. He also said it's not something that is fixable by strengthening.

I wouldn’t just believe him imo. The body can adjust a lot! Try it and work on strengthening your feet - what could you lose? It works or you have a least a better overall situation because of the extra strength! :)

Totally agree with @cello91, try it, what can you lose? I thought my genetics, bunions and fallen arches were unfixable. Two years later, after dedication to strengthening feet and glutes, I have been injury-free (frequent ankle sprains) and pain-free and love seeing the arches I developed and continue improving!

Fallen arches are not pronated. Pronation is not the rolling of the foot inward. That's eversion. Pronation is the rotation of the lower leg (in this case) outward. Fallen arches are not the same as eversion. They usually go together, but they are distinct.

Of course it can. Takes time and work but unless a true bone deformity, shape and function is created by the Soft tissue, muscles pull the bones/joints into position, good or bad. In nature, with soft leather moccasins, walking/running over many different surfaces would keep our muscles strong and stretched, and therefore in a healthy shape. Shoes and concrete prevents that, so foot and ankle exercises are necessary to provide it. Just like yoga stretches and strengthens us enough to correct poor posture into straight, good posture. Try some and see. Good luck.
