You will never know how much your guys have helped me. Thank you ,,,choked up right now.

Weakening always after injuries. Strengthening is something that takes time so most people don't do it. Often strengthening results in better than before the injury.

[@ronniemillsap]

This exercise has helped me(over time), thanks bob and brad!

[@sherylshard9616]

Thanks for doing this series on plantar fasciitis! I have been suffering from this problem recently and am so grateful to find your exercises to help me overcome it and strengthen my feet again.

[@sadiegal7104]

I broke my 2nd 3rd and 4th metatarsals 6 mos ago in a bicycle accident. Was in a cast and non weight bearing for 3 mos This series has really helped me as my plantar fasciitis got messed up being in the cast for so long.

[@cathyroberts7951]

Thank you sooo much... I am a nurse and I need to strengthen my feet. I am planning on using this during my yoga practice. I have really been focusing on improving my balance so this will be a great exercise for me to add to my routine. Thanks again. You are truly a blessing.

[@slim830]

U guys and physical therapy has helped me come along ways since September remember I couldn’t stand up five minutes without having to sit down now I can move around and stand still very sore but not painful 💪🏽

[@lozzavermy]

I seem to have plantar fasciitis all the time ever since I was a teenager. Here's hoping this helps!

[@DoingStuffWithDiana]

Gloria_g make sure you do it consistently for at least a year! It’s that type of deal where a little every or every other day goes a long way!

[@kazzyburton196]

I was sceptical whether this would help me, but it is the one exercise that has helped my planter fasciitis.

[@sheilasmith1109]

I really really love 💕 learning about doing the alphabet exercises! Please please please next address TOP OF THE FOOT PAIN!!

[@veganvintagegeek935]

Yes, please do. I've complained to my chiropractor about the pain I am always getting on the top of my left foot. And when I am adjusted the pain does go away a little, and after a couple of days the tightness and pain do go away.

[@charlesmckinley29]

Another thing to use in the battle against foot pain. Thank you

[@southpaw788]

?

[@brbrknndy]

The exercises work best for me too. I use the Algin Archiciser and it is great. I went from having one flat foot to both feet having a beautiful curve when standing. I can now stand on the kitchen floor in my bare feet and do the dome exercise and I can totally flex and relax my arches fully.

[@veganvintagegeek935]

I am so going to start doing this exercise. I too have a problem with my balance. When I sprained my back at work, they sent me to PT and the PT had me standing on one leg to strengthen my balance I kept tilting to the side. And my PT told me to keep practising by standing on one leg every day. It helped a little bit, I still tilted to the side. Thanks to you Doctors now after all these years of having flat feet and having poor balance I can now work on strengthening my arch and balance more. I'm still walking in a slight marching motion and I kid you not, I have more energy and my feet, leg, and back muscles hurt a lot less. And I noticed, walking up the stairs is less painful, hooray!

[@beajames8956]

please create a video for how to stretch if you work on a hard floor and are trying to heal from sciatica. Unfortunately, the floor is usually covered with food bits so laying down is not an option. Thank you. You two are great! Funny too.

[@wpyyang5161]

"Sit on that bed!" Hahaha. Love you guys!

[@siddhantSuhela7022]

Sir need to take any medicine or exercise enough for it??

[@levilevi9621]

Can you do this while you still have plantar fasciitis? Or is it just for after you’ve healed?

[@SkylerAdriel]

I have no idea why this exercise always immediately causes my outer calf to cramp. :/

[@CWBush73]

I have what I believe are either bone spurs or at the very worst a very bad case of osteoarthritis. At any rate my ankles swell like the dickens and have lots of pain. Especially if I am active. My question is do you have an ankle sleeve in mind to increase compression? I have had many ankle injuries over the years as well have gained weight which is a painful combination.

[@HyperarchFasciaTraining]

Doing reps are not going to be as effective as fascia tensioning. Also if Bob doesn’t feel in the glutes it means the fascia connection from the feet to the glutes are not fully functional #hyperarch

[@mtbboy1993]

I am not sure what my issue is called but my whole foot gets misaligned, the whole foot gets forced behind and up, all joints misaligned, and toes all toes too, especially my pinkie toe, it gets compressed, but recently I have been getting a lot of pain in my foot, and the toe, feels as bad as hitting it on furniture, the past month it has happen almost every night and wake up with pain, it's in my right foot. so it hurts to walk, I have had it happen for years, but not with long lasting pain, that started few weeks ago.

[@moslemdoctor2869]

[@Augusto_Caten]

Id really like to figure out why I am literally unable to do this.

[@Augusto_Caten]

@@phaseshift24 probably, also, im really suffering from plantar fasciatis, like, im down bad

[@Augusto_Caten]

@@phaseshift24 thanks mate, im seeimg a physio, doing many treatments, but im on the edge of giving up on running and starting to swim or to bime ride, maybe its just way too mucb impact, but i will try a little more, recover, wait, and try again

[@julie804]

Keep practicing.

[@samzatoichi8330]

Will this work for someone who has had flat feet all their life?

[@steverocksyo]

I don't get how we have the same skeletons but our feet are so visibly different arch wise.

[@alphanotmale1847]

Hey guys, quick question: Will fallen arches acquire any degree of height with these exercises, and if so, will this change be permanent? Also how do I know that I am doing the exercises correctly? (because instead of getting the bulge on the instep, as Brad was pointing out, I am getting a workout soreness on my shins).

[@pstreech3637]

In your opinion of course Bob 😂 ✌️

[@mike3dfx863]

CANT SEE ANY MOVEMENT AT ALL! MINE DOESNT CHANGE

[@julie804]

Keep practicing.

[@timetravelere1208]

Bob has the perfect feet to wear high heels. Life is so unfair

[@jewals-healingrose222]
