ABOUT THIS VIDEO
Vincent has had collapsed arches for a long time. Eventually he wanted to fix his pronated feet and fix his fallen arches. With the right foot exercises for his foot muscles, he's restored his natural foot arch.

[@dominus6224]

@@fitnessjourneyman Nothing helps. Either you’ll need special design insoles or surgery. The only time you can do this stuff and have it do something useful for you is when you already have an arch. When you have an arch, you can strengthen it. If you don’t have an arch, you won’t be able to “regain” it. No one is going to change bone structure with exercises.

Had Evans Calcaneal Osteotomy Lateral Lengthening maybe 7-8 years ago. Surgeon snipped Achilles Tendon in 3 places thinking it needed to be lengthened. This resulted in having no/extremely atrophied calf muscle. Today I can stand on a plank/stairs with a 75# barbell and do toe raises......muscle still atrophied. Achilles was "overlengthened" and will no longer support calf muscle . Thanks Mr. Surgeon!

Hi! First of all thanks for the video, flat feet are an issue I've had to deal with since my teen years, and I definitely would like to fix this in 2020. I have a question regarding the before/after picture of Vincent's feet : Do your feet now naturally arch this way ? Or do you need to consciously engage your intrinsic and extrinsic foot muscles to achieve that ?

[@Uprighthealth]

Inititially it required a lot of attention. It's become less and less conscious now. :-)

[@0nePiece98]

@@Uprighthealth Thanks for the answer. But, do you manage to efficiently walk with your feet engaged this way ? I struggle to do it, and I find that I end up walking in an even more messed up way

[@arsicvidan]

@@0nePiece98 practice makes perfect. You also dont want to lift all of your toes to create a curved foot and a arch. Just normal, it becomes easier and more comfy. For example walking up stairs with your legs going towards their inside is harder and has more pressure on your legs knees spine and posture than walking up stairs with your feet perfectly going out holding you and all of your body is alinged

[@FallisLife]

I have an arch but when I put pressure on my foot like when I’m fully standing it goes away. I’ve been wondering why my feet felt different and I guess it happened because I’m sitting a lot more. I don’t like how it feels :(

After about 5 years of research, what I have experienced and noticed in myself 1) strengthening adductor muscle 2) strengthening the glute medius and minimus 3) hamstring strengthening (especially the medial hamstring) In summary, strengthen the medial rotator muscles, I am sure you will benefit from it.

[@tiffany8946]

Sounds like you are heel striking. You are supposed to touch the ground with your metatarsals (the part just before the toes) before your calcaneus (the ball of your foot). You need to make sure you are walking properly which most people dont. It has to do with the kinds of shoes we wear. Try getting some barefoot shoes. You should make sure your shoes dont have tons of support too as it weakens your feet leading to atrophy of the muscles. So to summarize you need low to the ground shoes, with a wide tie box, & minimal support so that you can have strong and healthy feet, capable of sensing proprioreception. Aka, barefoot shoes.

[@MonkOrMan]

You never really explained what the actual excercise is, you just said what was important while doing it, but we still don't know what we're actually doing

[@loopingdope]

[@AlanSharland]

Thanks, that really helped me understand more. I used to do the 'death grip' with my toes thinking it would cause my arch (I have one flat foot the other is fine) to shorten but this makes so much more sense and is so much easier than what I was doing.

[@Uprighthealth]

You can utilize your arch muscles to hold the arch, thus freeing your toe muscles to apply the death grip to your enemies.

[@allergictobullshit49]

I didn't thought that having flat feet is a problem. Both of my foot are flat. 🙂

[@hanskazan7403]

it isnt untill you have problems with your back or knees or something

[@alanfrancis9225]

I really feel that although these exercises may help, over pronation is a symptom and not the cause of flat feet. From my position my problem has been caused by a week core. The rear muscles then have to work harder, overwork rotating the femur and straining the glutes, hamstrings, calf’s tendon pulling the feet flat causing over pronation of the feet. These muscles are basically compensating for a weak core. I am currently doing activation exercises on my core. Then I will work on glutes, hamstrings and calves which are week and tight. I will throw this idea out. If you were brought up in a dysfunctional home it might not have felt safe to be in your body. So you were not grounded in your core. Hence you may have stooped ( poor posture) causing structural problems and flat feet.

[@xhshgfsrodriguez4857]

I have noticed that fixing my overpronation has led all of my other muscles to start strengthening as well. I have been constantly sore since starting to do so. So I think that it is a 2 sided problem. Overpronation is caused by over compensating for weak muscles, and weak muscles are caused by overpronation because it overcompensates, not allowing us to strengthen them. Even as a runner, my leg muscles were still very weak apparently.

i have plantar fasciitis, feet are not that flat, got some arch, doing exercises to overcome overpronation, videod myself walking, appeared to be duck walking got the big toes bending toward 2nd toe not extreme yet, so I walk straighter, doing internal hip rotation for that. I hear strengthening arch helps thecollapsing arch which is often culprit for plantar fasciitis, calves dont feel that tight, makes my heel sore to do wall stretches so I use a towel over foot. I know what you are thinking, is there a question somewhere, lo! Yes there is, can you usually correct your walking gait through therapy or are most people with a bad walking gait dealing with a deformity. Foot Doctors I have seen seem anxious to scan your walking gait and sell their custom inserts or cant afford get a shot of cortisone without much of an evaluation, are most problems fixable by therapy, I hear custom inserts are just a band aid and problem comes back.

For anyone getting slow results with these, I think walking while holding your ankles out is a lot more effective. In a week I have been able to go from complete flat foot to being able to walk, and even stand on one foot, and keep my arch. This is because I walk a lot everyday, so I am basically always exercising my ankles. With these exercises its just 15 minutes a day of exercises and then proceeding to walk with your ankle pushed in and flat feet everywhere. This creates way slower results. Another thing is that your legs and feet are bound to hurt whilst correcting your flat feet and this is perfectly normal. As your body acclimates, the pain will decrease, so don't give up.

Your feel are still flat mate, why say they are not when they clearly are, and giving advice that says it lifted your arches, false advice here

[@camotym4920]

Wearing 2"heels helped with my flat feet 🤔 even though heels are not good for feet. I see a lift in my arches.

[@awaisahmad8935]

Exercise Steps should be separated, continuous speaking is boring

[@slimeslime5749]

Foot feels weird now. I can feel the middle of it. Like its a box in the middle or something. Feels like the foot is lifted now, no longer flat

[@wedumatilamba8151]

Thought I was the only one with flat feet 😂😂 Thanks for the video though 😄

[@suhtangwong]

I thought you were too lol but good to know there are more than 2 people in the whole world with flat feet.

[@annagrigoryan7339]

he says he is gonna show the exercise then does not, very confusing, what is the exercises is it just a heel lift off the ground?

[@Frodoswaggns]

I know body builders with giant calves who have flat feet, you need to bounce the forefoot off the ground like barefoot running or sprinting to get maximum results. Otherwise these are just mostly calve raises.

[@why8842]

Are we not gonna talk about how he showed two different feet and claimed results? Lol

[@roxanneroxanne6660]

words blocking your feet unable to see impt things.

[@veldakagami5914]

but when i'm walking normally i'll forget about it and tend to back to flat feet 😢

[@arjumandminai281]

The written text blocks the view of your feet. Please fix the angle.

Jesus loves you so much he died for you give your life to him and ask for forgivenes

[@LewisMcLeod1]

Wouldn’t running or sprinting provide the same movement?

[@marshagregory5387]

How thick should the board be that you are stepping up on?

[@user-ne2zx3nd2k]

As someone with flat feet can vouch for arch raises. Doing 100+ raised arch raises in a single try every day before sleep religiously for 15+ years now and all the problems with numbness i had when i was younger (peroneus longus and tibialis anterior both went completely numb after a fast walk, climbing uphill or running for some time so i had to stop whatever i was doing for 5-10 minutes simply to be able to walk again) long disappeared. It doesn't fix your actual feet shape, but strengthening those two muscles with arch raises solved all the numbness and discomfort problems for me. Side effect which, depending on your body type can look weird, is that my calves are way bigger than i would prefer, but being male that's not really an issue.

[@therussianpotato8070]

Should I feel my inner calf working?

[@poman9424]

That is so bad... You are not treating flat feet. You cheating by making bad rotation stability movement in feet segments.

[@askriarcvhr.4680]

then what is the right way

[@z-a-q7098]

I might be a bit dumb bit this video was mad confusing it made me sick xD

[@james63853]

I have been doing powerlifting for 7 months now, and I have always had pretty low arch, and even slight overpronation, and somehow I feel that my arch is flattening maybe. Is is helpful to do these excercises on calf raise machine with added weight? And do your calf muscles strength/weakness play a big role on developing overpronation? I´d love to hear best excercises for my feet/calfs to prevent overpronation in my case because I do heavy squats and deadlifts all the time while having low arch (not totally flat though, no knee pain or anything). And my slight overpronation is my biggest concern (I even have had an ankle injury because of that in 2014), and I´d do everyting to prevent it getting worse, and if just possible, even fix them totally and align them back to normal. Thanks.

[@slimeslime5749]

Feel the big toe area burning and the arch feels like its waking up

[@bronniesboy]

What can in do if my inner knee is getting discomfort after this process

[@tonypowell250]

I can't do that fucking exercise so now what?

[@ImpulsoCreativo9322]

Is the back foot supposed to always be lifted?

[@fluorescentblack4336]

Thanks so much for uploading this super helpful video. Lots of people can’t afford orthotics and it’s exercises like this that can make a huge difference to peoples lives
