The TRUTH About Barefoot Shoes! (You NEED To Know Before Buying)

Показать описание

Barefoot shoes are some of the most popular shoes out on the market today! With many brands out there to choose from it can be difficult to figure out why this type of shoe is beneficial for your feet and your health. In this video I go over what exactly barefoot shoes are, what are the benefits, and what are the downsides. I'll go over the truth that no one talks about when buying these shoes and how you should properly transition into them. If you're someone interested in transitioning to these type of shoes its important that you take these factors in consideration!

I am 62 and switched to barefoot shoes about two years ago. I won't go back to putting my feet into constrictive shoes again and many of my minor foot issues have disappeared. This video does a great job of explaining why people wear these shoes as well as some good advice at the end on how to make the switch.

I'm now 65 years old, I am already retired and I never liked to walk in shoes. Maybe only in winter, in flip-flops.

Thanks for posting this! Around the house I wear Crocs but I’m thinking that maybe I should give myself a break from them.

Great informative video because you show the important stuff in a short amount of time. Correct me if you did but I do miss strength training as an essential tip. Interesting because you do show a strength(/flexibility) excersise right after, which I think is an effective way to train strength and flexibility at the same time. I mentioned to someone that my transition to barefoot shoes was instant and without pains and he asked me if I wear shoes indoors. I realized I have been walking on socks indoors all my life but didn't really think about it being good for strength like that.

It’s funny because I have always hated brand shoes like it took so long to wear them down until I could tolerate the over squishing feeling throwing off my balance, always preferred being barefoot any chance I get

Question:
Is barefoot shoes actually good for you ? No doubt they are more "natural" but due to the way evolution works we are not designed. We have several dedign flaws. Question is if "normal" shoes, designed by smart people with many years of research and money, are worse than nothing (which is what barefoot essentially is)
I generally do not know what to think here

What happens if you already practise a sport which is performed barefoot would this reduce the possible transition problems? I'm a traditional jiujitsu practitioner for over 30 years now.
