In this video, I’m going to show you the best flat foot fix that you can do at home. You’re born with flat feet and develop an arch when you’re around 6 to 10 years old. Some people develop a fallen arch as they age because they don’t exercise the muscles that strengthen the arches of the feet.
The purpose of your foot’s arch is to provide it with free energy. It acts as a preloaded spring when you walk, climb, or run. You can still walk if you’ve lost your arch, but other muscles will be recruited. The quads and PSOAS muscles will compensate for flat feet, and the hamstrings, glutes, and lower back will be underused and become weaker.
Sprinting is the best exercise for flat feet, helping restore the foot arch naturally. Even if sprinting is difficult initially, you can improve within 6 to 8 weeks. Jogging is one of the worst exercises for flat feet!
Strengthen the arches of the feet with these exercises and build up to sprinting:
• A skipping
• B skipping
• High knees
• Butt kicks
When sprinting, sprint at 60% intensity, doing 2 to 3 sprints for 15 seconds each.
To prevent flat feet in children, allow them to play in the grass or a safe environment without shoes to strengthen the arches of their feet. Look for shoes with thinner soles; barefoot shoes are best. Also, ensure there’s enough space for the toes to move. This improves posture by strengthening the glutes and taking pressure off the lower back.
Low vitamin D, K2, and magnesium early in life can contribute to flat feet.
