Why feet are so important
To guide optimal movement
Foundation
Linchpin bodypart
Performance: Low hanging fruits
Effect on gait
Under constant attack
Injury Prediction
A glimpse into hip function
Position starts and ends
Compensation movement
Stability indicator
Treatment vs. Prevention
Palliative “sick care” System
Root cause approach
Fixing the movement, not the body-Part
The Problem with footwear
Modern shoes are not made for humans.
Myths and big marketing for footwear companies
Rigid, narrow, and rigid toebox. Heel lift, cushioning, and support
Fashion vs. function
Moving to “human” Shoes
Look for: Flexible, flat, thin, wide (protect your foot, that’s it)
Demo: Toga, finger interlace, splay, toe activation
Pain Science
What is pain?
Inadequately understood
Properly using the signal
This guide is for building tissue tolerance
Demo: Movement – foot & hip warmup
Block 2: Feet
Foot core
Muscles
Role
Demo: Foot scan (foot posture and toe alignment, arch alignment, arch, calluses), hip torque
Current treatment
The symptoms should be treated, not the cause.

S.A.I.D principle
There is not enough quality research to support its use
Restoration
Hardware
Joint mobility = Muscle activity
FootAnkle
Role of tissuework: Reset muscles, get to your joint
Demo
Release of the Lacrosse plantar
Midfoot articulation
Calf reset
DF mobs – kneeling, squat and mod pistol (cossack).
PF sit on heels and anterior shin reset/cleanup
Big toe active mobs
To squat, sit on your heels and kneel.
Reintegration
Use your feet!
Use the new mobility/muscle function
Spend some time barefoot
Rewire hip/foot connection
Demo: Short foot (aka doming), 5 seconds holds, partner ball throws
Block 3: Hips
Hip dysfunction
Problems downstream are the root cause
Inbalances due to time spent in chairs
Loss of mobility = loss in stability
Effects on the foot, ankle, knee and low back
Creates patterned quad dominance
Key muscles are inhibited by positional inhibition
Important points
Joint mobility + pelvic position
Hip stabilizers are designed to protect your ankle.
Hip mobility: You can use it or lose!
Demo: FABER Ax 2nd widths from the floor, symmetry, pelvic positioning correct
Move & Mobilize Demo
Squat
Comparison of position and movement
Tempo squat
Block 4: Locomotion
Walking

For optimal walking, you need to extend your hips and bend your ankles.
Conscious walking
Hip, ankle and big toe
Demo

Block 5 Training
Principles
Every exercise is a foot and spine workout
