Hope it helps!

Did it work? Do you no longer have flat feet?

[@jason-xb9wx]

thanks this is helpful. do you have any advice for lateral malleolus pain. i am assuming its becaues of my flat feet. it acts up when i walk around without my orthotics for to long

[@thedurablebody]

It’s hard to say what the source of the pain could be without evaluating you. But a lot of the time, ankle and foot strengthening helps foot or ankle problems. The orthotic most likely holds the foot in the right position. The ankle and foot muscles can also put the foot in a good position too if they’re strong enough

Ofter doing this exercises; within how many days I can expect best results?

[@thedurablebody]

Hey K Ravindra! It will vary person to person, but if you keep it up for a few weeks, you'll be able to use those arch-raising muscles without having to think about it too hard

[@thedurablebody]

Thanks Gregory! Hope it helps!

[@viviantran3185]

This may be a dumb question, but how do I know if I have flat feet?

[@thedurablebody]

Hey Vivian! Great question! An easy way to tell is if your feet flatten out completely with no arch showing while you’re standing.

[@lono.barefoot]

Hey would you like to test out our barefoot kicks?

[@Fenrispro]

My feet often feel the arch pain if i stand long.

[@raquelvillasenor6899]

Thank you!! for sharing your knowledge. I have a child 9 years old with flat feet 👣

[@thedurablebody]

Hey Raquel! You're welcome!

[@Olayefapleasantemine-pz3tk]

Yes I have flat feet

[@redeemerebipade4760]

Is it compulsory to use the resistance band loop

[@thedurablebody]

Hey ! It’s not absolutely necessary, but it’s helpful to make it more challenging as you get stronger

[@musababbas7018]

For how long can one do this

[@thedurablebody]

Once you master the movement, you’ll start being conscious of how your feet are when standing and you’ll be able to correct it right away. So however long it takes to master the movement
