“I noticed a couple of months ago, that my balance was getting really bad. I came out of the bathroom at a restaurant. And I went like this…”
Proceeds to stumble
“Well how many did you have?”
LOOOOOL
Bruuuuuh I’m dying!!!!!
These guys are legends:D
Hey Bob and Brad what type of exercise would you suggest if any for someone with flat feet?
Thanks for the video. Can you explain why we shouldn’t do the last exercise in leather shoes? I wear moccasins around the house (because it’s the next best thing to barefoot) and figured they’d be perfect for the zig zag.
Hi Bob and Brad, my mother has right foot swollen problem for two years.
We have gone through all blood test including biopsy but every result is negative. Her foot is getting weaker and weaker. She isn’t able to walk and her left foot is also getting pain due to all the pressure on it.
Kindly help us, if there is any possibility you can suggest for diagnosis. For last two years we aren’t able to get diagnosis yet.
Would you famous physical therapists know if flat feet can cause pain on the tops of the feet (on the bony part, right above where the arch should be)? That’s where I often get pain and the only thing I can think of is that no arches in my feet may be causing it. Just curious…
Would standing on your front pad be good for you arch? Would it help prevent fasciitis too? I’m a nurse and I stand still a lot. It seems to help if I stand on my toes/front pad of my foot?
Completely agree about cushioned footwear. I have footwear where I’ve removed the insole. Whilst not the complete barefoot experience it’s just the sole of my foot against the sole of my trainers. Better connection with the ground.
When I was a kid, our doctor told our mom to make us pick up marbles with our toes and walk around the room. This was supposed to strengthen our floppy arches.
Doctors probably don’t recommend that anymore.
It was fun we would race.
can i WORSHIP YR FEET & SOLES GUYS?? PUT ON my friends feet dot com theyre PERFECT FEET N SOLES WITH REAL Charachter in em:) woof n Whiifs:)
Improving your arch is something I thought was impossible to do that you were just stuck with your arch. Can a flat-footed person do these exercises and improve the arch, avoiding surgery at some point?
When my daughter was a baby she had a wonderful osteopathic doctor who warned me about those rigid white baby shoes everyone always wore. He said they would not allow her feet to develop properly and she should wear something softer and more flexible. I’m glad I followed his advice.
The zig zag exercise also works the muscles around the hips. And can be practiced on a Saturday night at the dance floor.
I was taught the zig zag movement by someone who danced in the era of the twist!
any brand recommendation for feet with bunions/pain and pain in heels? thanks
I sadly have no arch my school raised money for me to get a expensive arch thing
I’m only 23 and the right side of my body is super weak, my age may have nothing to do with my problems but these guys’ videos have helped me so much more than any doctor I’ve visited.
On these issues I always think of the Roman Caligae, the flat-soled boots worn by the legions.
They conquered the known world from Britain’s climate to North Africa and the footwear seemed to work well.
And then we have all our indigenous peoples who have gone barefoot or lightly-shod for millennia.
So, I conclude that a flat-soled shoe is probably an ideal. However, not something to step into (!) directly from our modern habituated thick-soled environment without some gradual process.
I have started putting my thongs (flip flops) beside the bed so I can get straight into them, they have an arch support which is great for morning PF pain in my left foot.
Hi Bob & Brad! If I put together some short questions, could you both give me some advice about some good health rips and gentle exercise for people with Marfans Syndrome? My legs and ankles often hurt from muscle pain, and I’m putting pressure on my feet (just had 4 toes straightens, but my foot is completely numb due to 4 fusion surgery’s on my back) so all in all, my feet are rubbish, and I’m getting sick of having so much pain, discomfort, embarrassment, my balance isn’t great, as I have one leg about 5-8cm shorter than the other!!!! Lol I bet you think I’m making all thIs up!..but unfortunately…no!
Thanks guys you have helped SO MUCH and have saved me money too! Love you and I watch everything you put up
Wearing coffins on our feet is such a bad idea. I wear LEMS Primal 2 minimalist shoes. I love them!
Uneven foot arch can cause hips to be unbalanced laterally because the knee is curving inwards
I wish I had Bobs arches.. my right foot went totally flat after a hip surgery.
No arch soles are not good for anyone. Barefoot is good, but not doing it walking on top of rubber.
i was trying to figure out who brad sounds like. maybe Norm or the guy from tide commercial https://youtu.be/jePVk7u_3PQ
I subscribed to Bob & Brad during the cocaine years. They were a lot more into what they were doing back then. Now, they’re just so mellow. It’s different.
Could you do a video on high arch feet and muscle imbalances (calf, leg) due to that condition? Some tips on it as well as some exercises would be really helpful.
I have been considering getting a toe spreader, but dont know if it would be worth it.
G’Day from Down Under. Thanks for this video guys, as usual it’s got that right mix of useful info and giggles
We are a highly developed society and we call barefoot walking exercuse Nr. 1 and get irritated
Made my day thx
I bought that black night splint you recommended! It works really well! I’ve found that getting it to stretch just under the threshold of pain to be the best for getting my heel to properly stretch out. It’s too uncomfortable to wear while asleep but I can wear it while sitting at home. Thanks again!!
When I wore moccasins as a teen, it hurt my feet. I don’t do well with bare feet.
The Nike shoes from the early 80s had very thin soles. It made running so comfortable.
Great videos. Thanks. Are their self exercises that can flatten high arches? Can physical therapy help flatten high arches to some degree by loosening tight ligaments?
Very good, ´´If you absolutely can´t stay positive, don´t go negative, just cruise neutral for a while until you can get back up. Terri Guillemets´´.
Great video! The ziggies is a good one. It helped me see that my right leg still needs more recovery from shin splints.
i think bob is so sexy, minus the hair don’t. luv thin, fit men! looks even sexier in black!!! sorry mrs. bob that i’m crushing on your hubby.
I just bought Xero shoes and went totally barefoot last week. Great advice!
Question though, if I never wear shoes with arch support, do I still want to increase my arch?
I can’t do the second exercise! Is there any way to work up to it?
This is great advise. I need to do this. Any videos on helping bunion on big toe? I was told to increase the arch in my shoes???
Just when I’m trying to get off YouTube and go to sleep, THEY PULL ME BACK IN!!
Strolling has been hard for me a few weeks ago. It is just incredible how I managed to complete a 5 kilometer run now. I`ll certainly be suggest plantar fasciitis treatment “remrem fetching space” (Google it) to all my running mates, try it yourself!
someone told me about toe curling exercises and it seems to have been the most helpful thing ever in relieving my pain.
mean while that bone protrusion at your big toe joint is going to require surgery to shave it because you will end up with hammer toe what a pity
These exercises are great exercises for runners to do while dealing with plantar fasciitis to strengthen intrinsic foot muscles.
Thanks for this video, Dr. Lin! Great advice. Especially since I stand a lot for work.
I find there’s a pain not from lengthening, but from shortening a cramping. Stretching helps me, but maybe you’ve got something in your next video 😉
