Are We still Foot Binding?!

Are we still practicing the body modification of Foot Binding?! Long ago, this practice was the highest form of body modification in China, offering prestige and increasing the chances of finding a influential or wealthy suitor. This perception of beauty also came at a steep price. Debilitating the women, leaving them in excruciating pain at the chance of being held in high esteem. With the lim...

Walking on Compacted Gravel. In my opinion, jagged Gravel is the most difficult terrain to walk on, barefoot. I consider it easier than walking barefoot on a Hiking trail or Urban trail. This terrain shows the benefit of a larger surface area and the dampening ability of the Forefoot strike instead of Heel strike. This carries over to walking on unyielding surfaces, such as the concrete slabs t...

Walking at this Pace is what burns Fat. This is a zone 2 cardio pace, that keeps me in my fat burning zone, while avoiding the high intensity fatigue. How do you calculate Your Zone 2? The formula is 220 minus your age. So if you're 30 years old, your maximum heart rate would be 190 (220 - 30 = 190). 70-80% of 190 would give you a Zone 2 heart rate range of 133-152, and you would want to stay a...

The Glutes seem impossible to develop and this leads to a lot of fads and quick fixes. But, at the core of non responding glutes, is a misaligned Pelvis, if you can control your Hips, you will finally engage the complete use of your Glutes. Anterior Pelvic Tilt has become the default position, due to many hours sitting down. A defaulted Tilt, bypasses the Glutes and puts tension primarily on th...

    How fascinating! I was not aware of the problems athletes have or the effects of athletic shoes like that! I assumed (prejudicially, it seems), that "deforming footwear" was limited to women's fashion, where being hobbled is a kind of Veblen good (conspicuous waste, perhaps? Conspicuous leisure, definitely.) I truly though sneakers for athletes were designed for good foot mechanics!

    I know you made mention of this in your video, but yes there is a difference between walking and running in humans. Humans walk with plantigrade locomotion - with the heel striking the ground ever so slightly first. Apes walk and move with the same mechanics. We are part of that family (great apes). The important thing is to not over emphasize the heel strike when walking barefoot, or with too long of a stride. Modern shoes allow us to lengthen stride and slam the heel down - not good. When running, forces are much higher and we leave the ground entirely. This cannot be absorbed by the heel directly and necessitates the form you are demonstrating. It takes 53% more energy to walk in the manner you are describing. The reason for that is if we land heel first slightly we can more effectively roll the foot toward the front which takes advantage of kinetic "spring" energy in our tendons resulting in additional efficiency. Running has higher forces so even with lower efficiency it is the best technique to absorb the shock with what you are showing. Even then, if you look at the ultra modern footware (which I am not a fan of), with enough cushion you see efficiency go up doing these massive heel strikes in marathon runners. Its pretty brutal but demonstrates the physics.

    I am a runner. I tried to improve my running technique and discovered (through videos) That I have a hip impingement (which is evident on x-rays), but I could see the problem in my shoe ware. Some heel ware. I was landing on my heel. Then I saw it while running on a treadmill in front of a mirror. So I tried to correct it so I could run faster. I did and by marking the bottom of my shoes, I was able to track my improvement. I still have a hip impingement, but I walk and run correctly. Only improvement to my life that I noticed is that I don´t wear out my shoes so fast.

    I've always walked on the outside of my foot and now, in my 70s, I have serious ankle problems because I tend to cockle outwards on my ankle when I walk on uneven ground. It throws my weight onto the outside of my ankle. Over the years the tendons have become damaged so that now I can't walk more than 15 minutes without experiencing ankle swelling and pain. Recently I started walking using my big toe and the whole of the ball of my foot and this has actually helped me to stop injuring my ankle but the damage is done. It may be, that walking on the outside of your foot is not for everybody.

    The information you share in this video needs to go viral. This is no less serious than eating a proper diet over processed junk food. I live and work in the Philippines where many people have healthy feet from not wearing closed shoes like most wear in America. However, many people don't like the look of their toes open and spread out, preferring the look of closed toes like many in the west. 🫤

    🎯 Key points for quick navigation: 00:20 *🦶 The traditional heel strike in modern walking may not align with our evolutionary past due to terrain and natural hazards.* 01:56 *🏃‍♂️ Modern heel-to-toe walking can lead to muscle imbalances and reduced joint mobility, affecting overall body movement.* 03:33 *🚶‍♂️ Heel striking disrupts forward momentum and can cause issues like Achilles tendon instability.* 05:57 *🦵 Walking with a heel strike doesn't optimize natural reflexes and can hinder balance and injury response.* 10:12 *🧠 Engaging proper walking techniques can optimize reflexes and evolutionary biomechanics for better mobility.* 11:06 *🦶 Utilizing the windlass mechanism by pointing the big toe enhances shock absorption and propulsion during walking.*

Sometimes I love their cushioning and other days it feels like it isn't helping, esp thru my posture. I've watched a couple of your videos and sure I'll be paying attention (to where my foot is landing) when walking. Have subscribed and hope to learn more. Much gratitude! 🙏

    I learned this by accident recently~~I had sesamoiditis (still working through it) and had to walk on the edge of my foot to avoid those little bones (it felt so wrong...at first). I also stopped using my inserts for plantar fasciitis because I learned they are probably why I injured my sesamoids (foot locked in place with no ability to rotate and flex). Low and behold my heels no longer hurt and my injury is healing nicely. I have watched so many UA-cam videos from angels like you and thank you!!

I then went to physical therapy for strengthing my tendons, and they taught me how to walk wrong, and i went a bit overboard with the calf raises. I have been suffering for months with intermetatarsal bursitis (tried steroid injections, wide toe-box shoes, toe spacers, pads), but nothing really helped. I watched this video and 10 minutes later I am able to walk with less irritation in the ball of my feet. Why do more people not know this. thank you again.
