Good explanation of the structures involved in walking and running. Human feet were evolved to run long distances over grassland, not concrete or other man-made surfaces. Not to mention, broken glass and dog shit.

thanks phil

Dr. Berg sent me here.

Best video so far, Thanks ❤❤

porn level acting. very informative

guy doesn’t use his glutes running. His calves and lower legs are doing all the work. He needs to run with more of a forward lean rather than sitting back so much.

Back when youtube didn't have annoying ads, those were the days.

Remember to hydrate with some Sunny D and not that purple stuff!

Hi, Shouldn't this be named "part 1 of 3"?

Shoes are like casts/ coffins. They do too much work yr foot should naturally do on it's own. After running 12-15,000 miles barefoot in grass & winning alot of 3,5&10k track & road races I feel that everything you do as a runner depends on the development of bulletproof feet.Track spikes are one step up the support continuum. Weak feet equate to sending continual structural problems up the kinetic chain. Transitioning is simple. Just walk barefoot or do stairs the same way. You'll intrinsically know when yr ready to take it to the treadmill/ grass or track unshod. You don't need to spend 140.-180. Bucks on specialty so called " barefoot shoes" ( that's an oxymoron anyway!) Running barefoot results not only in super strong feet but, reconnects you with earth & upgrades not only yr intelligence but, also a heightened awareness & eventually happiness........

I'm Good at single leg balance, but i can't get better with eyes closed... No matter how many times I try, if i close my eyes can't stand more than 10 seconds. Any tips?

Great job👍🌺 New friend joined👍🌺

Watching a runner trying to act, is worse than watching an actor trying to run! 😕 Good information though! Also have to add, that gal in the green top has killer abs! 💪

The cuts in the video are so ‘80’s

Good stuff

Great content. The video is super cringe but it kind of adds to the appeal

Hello

Thank you, my v sits look like u sits too

It took 20 years to make it to KZbin and it took KZbin 10 years to suggest it to me. Cheesy but informal.

Love doing the Front Lunges.

I will definitely Try the Rocket Jumps.

Great Video I will definitely try these.

Thank you very useful!

Great video.. salute from India💓💓

I have fused big toes on both feet. Is it possible for me to transition to minimal shoes? I’ve been trying but have been experiencing difficulty.

Love this.

Great piece of information. Apart from research papers, there are a number of courses that clinicians can use to learn gait analysis.Here's a free Course on the biomechanical analysis of runners: auptimo.com/running-injury-course-biomechanical-analysis-of-runners/ Gait analysis is an excellent way to understand the common biomechanics linked with injuries. It is also an important tool to figure out if the injury is due to a musculoskeletal impairment, a training error, faulty running mechanics or extrinsic factors like footwear.

Hi, Can AIS help with glute amnesia? I am a sprinter and I never feel my glutes and hamstrings, only my quads are sore. This is not optimal since the glutes should drive the body forward, the glutes being the larges and most powerful muscles of the body. Can AIS make me glute dominant ? Thank you

Yes already am, a minimalist runner

I'm not sure if someone has asked this, but is putting something on your feet to spread your toes out actually beneficial? I ask because I saw someone in the video with something like this on.

This video is a godsend. ty

He wears shades so you know he is legit.

I didn’t see a hill there .. this group needs to run with me I will show them some hills

Functional lunge in sitting < 30 (knee over toe) -> Soleus Stretch If cannot lift big toe < 30 -> Plantarfascia soft tissue release -> Place thumb on fascia and dorsiflex toe Bring one toe up and other toes down Place foot ontop of board and push down Single leg stance, push down through big toe. Perform throughout day

U might get injured badly

I don’t think driving fast is good for running fast.

King of the hill on steroids

very useful video clip. Thanks!

I think that like most of people say, it should be natural to just run barefoot. But many people developed/were born with some minor defects which might be a problem in the long term. Myself I have ankles dropping inward a little. The thing is that exercises as such helps my form and strengthen my ankles. Yes, maybe if you have a problem, you should see a specialist, BUT not everywhere there are such specialists. Here if you go to podiatrist or any other studied something-ist, they tell you to wear normal shoes, because this is only thing they know. So sometimes it is good to just watch such videos and try to find what helps you.

um, this is goofy

Didn't work for me :( . I've watched this video over 12 times now and only got my 1 mile time down to 4:02. :))

5:53 this is idiotic, he’ll end up just like pre if he keeps this up, I don’t want to see the death of another legend in his prime

Are you ready to go manimal?

Because I don't like to wear shoes ... I like to go barefoot. Life is better barefoot than in shoes ! ^__^

Weirdly informative

so 90's <3

This video is magical

A lot of teachers of barefoot running have never seen a person who runs trails from from birth.That person uses The toes are used for traction so the toes grab the ground with each step. The foot becomes stronger and bigger thicker as that works all the muscles of the foot The plantar fascia is engaged with each step

Great Achievement! And Loved the music!

👍👍👍
