Stretching WON'T Fix Plantar Fasciitis [But These 4 Exercises Will!]

[@maddogshwa]

This is exactly what I need right now. I'm 48 and still squatting, deadlifting, and doing yoga but if I run for more than a few hundred meters I feel something like a torn Achilles. Then after a few days of rest its fine.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Ouch! We are so happy that you found us. Try out the exercises and let us know how it goes. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@copyhustler944]

Coach, can you do a full video on peroneal tendonitis? Love your stuff, thanks!

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Great suggestion!

[@dianneshuford2861]

Coach E: thank you for important information, clear instructions and helpful demonstrations. For Susan and others, here are are few shoes to look at: Lems, Feelmax, Xero, Ahinsa and Vibram.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Wow, thank you! Your comment is much appreciated :)

[@lydiaxiong445]

Hi Coach Eric and PM Team. I don't have plantar fasciitis or overpronation. I'm retired and love a refresh of my training in massage therapy. Heal to toe acupressure resolved my hot tired feet in school. I'll check your videos on supination and imbalance.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Thank you, Eric. There are so many experts here on KZbin some good some bad.. I have always had excellent results following your suggestions. I have purchased several of your courses also. Really appreciate what you are doing. Thank you.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

We appreciate that! Thanks so much for stopping by to comment. Stay tuned for more awesome content. Let me know if you ever need more advice or assistance :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@amruthalfred]

Thanks so much Coach E for the top tier content as always! Off topic: Could you make a video about athletic pubalgia and exercises/methods to heal it?

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

You are so welcome. Thanks for the suggestion. In the meantime, get started on the Hip Pain Solution program. It will put you on the path to recovery. It is a very comprehensive plan that will help you to address multiple root causes of your issue: www.precisionmovement.coach/hip-pain-solution-yt Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@amruthalfred]

@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thanks for the reply! Will take a look at the program - and looking forward to the video!

[@robertasalvo1077]

Love this video, just not happy that I am unable to see you in person. You are top notch. I also have chronic piriformis causing nerve pain in both feet, would this be OK to do this video along with your piriformis video. I need help desperately and finding a good physical therapist is like find a needle in a haystack in the states. I would like to do your piriformis video but I also have flexible flat feet causing pain in the arches and balls of the feet and I would like to do this video as well. You are the best and I agree with you that stretching is not the answer to resolving pain.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hi, and thanks for watching. It is ok to do the exercises in both videos. Do them 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks, and let us know how it goes. Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@lyndaanderson8553]

Thank Coach E for another super and relatable video!! My question is, would this benefit people with high arch pain?

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Yes, absolutely :) Thanks for watching :)

[@shawnjbray]

I only have control of downward press of my big toe, on one foot. Can’t lift it at all, or my other toes much more. I also can’t lift my foot more than 30°, but when this all happened, I couldn’t hardly lift it at all. But it’s been 10yrs since

[@shawnjbray]

But I have never had much to any of an arch in either of my feet

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hi and thanks for sharing that. It's not uncommon and you will improve with time and practice. Do the exercises 2 - 3 times weekly and keep us posted on your progress :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@artelements848]

Great video - - What are your thoughts on eccentric heel lowering? My personal experience was what I attributed to accelerated improvement. I still do this. You did not mention in video so I'm curious why? Soooo glad I finally got over plantar fascitis-- left foot only. I guess I was lucky - only four horrible months. Now I maintain every day. NOt happening again!

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hi, and great question. We have found these other techniques to be more successful in addressing the root cause of the issue. Thanks for asking, and let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@dessertstorm7476]

I have plantars, not only in th e heel but the heel and arch of both feet. Ongoing for 2 years. AT this point I will try anything.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Try out these exercises and let us know how it goes :)

[@4lifeinnh978]

As an older person with stability issues, it would be helpful if you showed the reverse lunge exercises in a way that an older person can do. If I tried to do those last few, I would fall over! lol Thank you for this helpful video. 😊

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hi, and thanks for the suggestion. In the meantime, feel free to contact nearby sturdy objects for support and let us know how it goes. You can also modify the exercise to suit your unique capabilities so you don't fall over. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@darrenhockey2191]

I so much enjoy going barefoot as much as I can and seeing the results of your exercises and courses have helped me a lot .

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Great to hear! Thanks for letting us know. We hope that others read your comment and are inspired to act. Have a super weekend :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@susandimonte9698]

Are there any shoes you recommend?

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Great question. We typically recommend footwear that has a neutral last, a wide toebox, and minimal construction. Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@НаталяДоброгорська]

Thank you Coach! Оrthopedic insoles with plantar faciitis?

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

You are welcome and thanks for asking. Here is our position on insoles: www.precisionmovement.coach/pes-planus/ Have a look and let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@osk8192]

Doc, is it applicable for PF caused by bone spur?

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Yup!

[@darklydreamingpeter]

Keen to try this. Manage to escape PF for about a year, but it has recently decided to start rearing its ugly head again. Do you think tight calves play a part in PF pain?

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Let us know how it goes. Calves definitely play a part. Keep us posted on your progress :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
