I've done many of these things to restore my feet after years of playing football. I was ultimately in so much foot, shin, and knee pain that I was weaping without my knowledge as I jogged to the park on day. My instincts told me to kick my shoes off as I stood in the grass. The pain fell instantly. I remembered a Charlie Rose interview segment with a guy who wrote about how extreme marathon runner tribes essential run barefoot with a floppy sandal over their foot. Toe spreading with my hands, and fascia massage with a lid from a jar is how I start my day. I'm completely pain free for years. I swear by this method, and ice massage with frozen blocks of ice that I freeze in plastic Solo cups [comes from years of sports medicine in college, and later as a trainer/athlete healing myself... I run warm water over the outside of the frozen ice cup, pop the block out, grip it with a hand towel and massage my feet to knees, shoulders and neck, forearms, hands, and elbows... Completely resets my pain to almost none]. I had stress fractures in both 5th metatarsals, tore both my insteps, arthritic ACLs that prohibited me from staying seated for longer than 30 minutes at a time, and shin splints. I've healed all of those things now. I'll add the other toning methods to my routine. Thanks for this.
Correct Toes toe spaces changed my life and helped me recover from a severely painful, debilitating forefoot problem. At $65 they’re expensive, but 100% worth it in my opinion.
It would be dope if you guys set up a body cam for the guests! It would help us out so much to see your guests go through the motions they are describing. Particularly me because I'm dumb and still need to rewatch something a bunch to get it down. Thanks!
Many years ago my podiatrist told me that arches could not be built up again. His option was to sell me a $500 custom insert. I politely said 'shove that insert straight into your ass.' and left. I knew that I could work out every other muscle in my body....so why was the foot any different? I'm happy to see younger minds get into health & fitness. Challenge dogma
Haha thats my exact story too. The podiatrist was adamant I had to get his molded plastic piece for several thousand crowns... Of course you can train the feet as you can with any limb, so Im not going back there.
Arches can be rebuilt with 6 months / 1 year of transition to footware that actively makes your arches work. But this is 30 seconds generation has no time for it.
Few years ago when i found out i had flat feet while doing sprinting it really hindred me there was no much info about it, now there is plenty and i got the full guide on this video thank you!
This is what i needed so bad! I was born with club feet, didn’t walk until I was 2yrs old. I don’t have much of an arch. Also, in 3rd grade I broke my big toe and haven’t been able to bend it since. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this info
I have been barefoot and have played basketball barefoot since I was a kid. Now at almost 23, I still do those things and I haven't had any type of foot problem and have insane athlete arches. I have had plantar fasciitis when I was like 14 for a while, but that has more to do with how my back was and how it affected the rest of the chain down my legs. It eventually went away with resting my feet. As soon as warm weather is around where I live (we get 8 months of warm weather from March to October), I basically stay barefoot most of the year, my feet get overheated way too easy, so I wear shoes very minimally, only when I go out and actually do things and see people, and that could be more rarely than usual.
Really surprised you have not had chong xie on yet. And just real quick poking holes in this hand foot thing, first our foot serves a purpose so different from the hand comparing the two is basically pointless, second separating the toes arbitrarily can collapse the transverse arch, and it is near impossible to have stiffness and toe seperation simultaneously.
I've had great results from doing KneesOverToesGuy exercises consistently with zero drop 'barefoot'-like shoes (I just bought some cheap watershoes from eBay). Used to have pancake flat feet but now have normal arches.
@@Future_looksbright Sled (both forward and backward) I think is the main one but also the build from the ground up ideaology with emphasis on the various tib/calf raise variations (have never done this much lower leg training volume in my life and in particular for the soleus), as well the Petersen Step Up and of course the ATG split squat where you are pushing through the big toe have helped a lot too.
Been a serious runner 20 years. Ditched the shoes for most road miles. About 50 per week. Still 20 ish miles per week on trails in shoes. Running in shoes now irritates knees and is much less fun than barefoot running. The adaptations available in the feet are limitless
I had chronic foot pain my whole life until I was 17, I have bone spurs where my arches are suppose to be, I got dr schools inserts, i wear them everyday in every pair of shoes, i haven't had foot pain one time in the past 5 years, they even made it so the foot pain is gone even when I'm not wearing shoes as well, best 50 dollars I have ever spent in my life, currently on my second pair of them in 5 years!!!! I very very highly recommend them, I am a very active person and they still last me about 3 years..... thank you Dr Scholls
I have low arches but haven't had much issues because of it. I do tend to walk barefooted at home and grew up in Hawaii and used to walk barefooted or wore flip flops often. I do make a conscious effort to walk and run softly onto the ball of my feet.
Only step you need... Switch to barefoot shoes. Lmao. No I have no idea but I know barefoot shoes fixed my over pronation problem that was present for like 10 years.
@@lildarkd Agreed. I got my first pair of orthotics from a podiatrist when I was 14, been doing feet exercises ever since with only minor effects. Only recently discovered my problem is actually very weak hips at 31 years old. I've worked out for years too...
@@thestuff4321 same bro. I am 32 and I have been hitting the weights for years now thinking that it will resolve my issues but to no effect. My hips are so stiff from all the sitting and I have very little internal or external range. I spent years doing squats and only working my quads instead of my glutes.
I have been trying the thumbs up portion as Im at a restaurant. My feet are cramping up a storm! Gonna be doing more of this stuff as I've been curious about this as a runner
you've stopped being powerlifting&strenght channel a long time ago, now you're the best health & pt channel out there, thank you!

I’ve been watching for two months now and the amount of content/help you have provided is unbelievable. Thank you.
Been doing these things for years. Changed my feet from flat to medium arches and healed my stress fractures in my shins. Amazing content!
How long did it take to start seeing results?
The content lately is bang on, keep it up
i already have bitchin arches and this stuff intrigues me

I have one flat foot and one regular foot. It's frustrating. I hope these tips help.
Dude me too. Makes one foot shorter lol
Lmao both of my feet are as flat as a ducks 😂
I have one left foot and one right foot. It's frustrating. I hope these tips help.
Great video, I have flat feet issues and I really needed to improve the care that I take about my feet
Great information on this video!
I love this fucking show… I wish I was friends with those guys
You guys are golden. Keep bringing the 🔥

Thank you for all this extremely valuable information, I appreciate you guys.
Visual example would help exponentially
Oh my gosh I have so much nonstop foot and achilles tendon pain.

Enjoyed the podcast very much❤️
Graham always has great information!

Interesting. Are you referring to the sled, or which of his exercises?

ty
poor jaime, shots fired
Its hard to tell how to do the excercises without seeing them
omg it hurts like a bic. fuck. i didnt know im so jacked up. thanks for this
I love this, love learning, thank u guys
I have low arches but haven't had much issues because of it. I do tend to walk barefooted at home and grew up in Hawaii and used to walk barefooted or wore flip flops often. I do make a conscious effort to walk and run softly onto the ball of my feet.
I have 2 super flat feet... I'll be doing these over the next month
Yo what brand/model are those headphones? I need them! :O
Where can I see these excercises?
what about too high of an arch?
Any solution for cubitas vulgus?
Does he have a book? Game on nintendo wii?
Thank you so much. I've been needing this video, and I think a lot of other folks do as well.
Goddamn, I can barely get my fingers inbetween my toes.
❤️
I need this
I commented because I got to the end of the video … hope this helps the good ole algo
Yee
Is this guy a foot doctor or not?
Only step you need... Switch to barefoot shoes. Lmao. No I have no idea but I know barefoot shoes fixed my over pronation problem that was present for like 10 years.
How long does it take because I have 1 foot that’s more overpronated
Algo
We need an arch equivalent of chicks dig big tibs
This is such bullshit. I just took five steps and my arches aren’t restored.
🚶♂️🏃♂️
None of this stuff will help much if your weak hips are causing pronation
Why would hips get weak
@@ihussain1011 Too much sitting/no exercise, injury, disease etc
So fix your hips and your feet? Easier said than done though because I haven't progressed so much.
@@lildarkd Agreed. I got my first pair of orthotics from a podiatrist when I was 14, been doing feet exercises ever since with only minor effects. Only recently discovered my problem is actually very weak hips at 31 years old. I've worked out for years too...
