There are multiple layers of muscles in the bottoms of your feet to help move your toes, grip the ground, and support the arch. You also have several muscles in the lower leg to support the arch of the foot. When you train these muscles while barefoot, you can create the support that your feet need without the use of products like orthotics and cushioned shoes. ⁣
⁣
One of the best ways to improve strength in the bottoms of your feet and lower leg is to simply stand on one leg. It is important to remember to grab the floor with your big toe and attempt to “shorten” the foot by bringing the forefoot (ball) toward your heel without rolling the ankle outward or inward. The muscles of the hip also help to support the arch of the foot by preventing the thigh, knee, and lower leg from collapsing inward and putting more stress on the arch. The muscles of the foot and lower leg must work together with the muscles of the hip to keep the foot, ankle, knee, and hip stable and supported. ⁣

How long will it take for you to see improvements in your arch? Your foot may always look “flat,” but the control and strength that you can gain in your foot will reduce pain and provide stability for the foot, knee, and hip. You will notice an improvement in strength each week if you focus on doing this work daily. The good thing about strengthening your feet is that you can do it at any point throughout the day without having to set aside time to work out. Even when you are washing dishes or brushing your teeth, you can focus on gripping the ground and playing with your foot and ankle position.⁣

It takes time to build muscle and strength. Don’t expect a change overnight. Put in work.⁣
