Discussing the health benefits of barefoot adaptations and how they transcend as good forefoot running mechanics.
Walking and running in thick cushioned running shoes were found to be directly responsible for causing knee osteoarthritis, but was perfectly prevented by walking and running barefoot or in barefoot-like shoes.
Barefoot earthing has been proven over and over again to do more to clear health-harming free-radicals from the body, which directly boosts the body’s ability to defend against a variety of health problems ranging from disturbed sleep to reducing chronic inflammation, from improving depression to enhancing focus and memory retention.
Barefoot running is safe, and is actually safer than the most cushiest running shoe! There’s converging evidence from multiple lines of research showing that running barefoot produces the most optimal coordination of safer, more efficient mechanical outputs that do more to protect you from injury than in running thick cushioned running shoes.
The muscles and nerves deep within the foot improve in strength best with increased barefoot activity but progressively dengerates with routine use of thick cushioned running shoes.
Barefoot running switches on a range of nerve, reflexive and mechanical responses that prevent underfoot pressure from rising to damaging levels which reduces the risk of severe foot injuries vs thickly cushioned running shoes.
