Hi Jae! Both my feet supinate like this because i have high arches and i've been dealing with Posteriour Shin Splints for a year and a half now, no stress fractures yet thankfully. I noticed that i don't use my big toe to push off at all and since then ive been doing so but i notice that i exaggerate it and my knees are in a weird angle is that normal because im trying out a new form?

What about runners with scoliosis? My ribcage is permanently shifted and my lower spine sifted to the other. It has been that way since childhood. Thanks!

[@balancedrunner]

That's a great question, @Bethany Salisbury. I'm putting it on my list for future videos. It's an in-depth topic and I don't have any quick answers other than to support your mobility rather than try to hold yourself in any particular position when you run.

@@balancedrunner Thanks! It's been an ongoing struggle.

How would you deal with functional hallux ridgus if you have an in-turned in foot? Thanks

[@balancedrunner]

Very gently start working on range of motion for that big toe.

I have one slightly inward facing foot am not a runner but I think it’s causing me hip and back pain.

[@balancedrunner]

It could be. Try the resource in the description.

@@balancedrunner I just realized lying up on my left side in bed while reading is a big problem I’ve quit doing that and it’s helping so far.

@@cleocatra9324 i have something similar. is your inward facing foot on your left? i lay on my right side when sleeping and my right leg does this.

This is how I run and I have alternating issue with my Poterior Tibial Tendon and achilles on that side Could turning my foot in when running be causing this issue?

[@balancedrunner]

It could be, Mark
