RUNNING BAREFOOT? 🦶🏃‍♂️

[@rqb6731]

The difference is that when you run barefoot the muscles and tendons of youre feet take up the load and then after they take the load they spring back and propel you forward, youre foot is like a spring, you land on front foot then midfoot and then lightly land on youre heel so the muscles and tendons absorb the shock instead of cushion (I didnt enjoy running until i started running barefoot, once you get the technique right running becomes so much more fun, efficient, faster, and less painful)

For sure! I believe it's all in the runner's preference for feel.

@@ryanbalmesdpt it’s not a preference, it’s a fact. The more you train the feet fascia/muscles, the denser and stronger it becomes and more energy return when you run in minimalist shoes. You need to slowly progress to it if not pain. Slow jogging is the best method if you wanna train for this.

Yes our ancestors ran on red carpets

[@stell12345]

And I agree

[@TimVisser-o8f]

I get where you are coming from, but that is just a weak argument. Our ancestors did not walk only on soft grass and sand. They needed to run various terrains. Hard pebbles sharp sticks and all kind of rough terrains

This makes sense

No it doesn’t

Just callous count as cushion? 😂

Lol hard earned natural super foam

@@ryanbalmesdpt oh yeah lol between walking on hot asphalt and in the woods barefoot but then I got those shoes you were talking about and that changed my life forever. I still get the comfortability of not wearing feet prisons while still protecting my feet.
