Joe Rogan: Their FEET look like HANDS! 

Same

How do you balance yourself..

@@Bella-wp7wz it's easier to balance without shoes on.

@@cps22001 unless you already altered your feet structure

@@Bella-wp7wz women☕️

Hahaha same for me

Same, and I spent 200€ on an extra wide pair with custom molded foot soles that lasted just as long as the 50€ ones I would wear before. Looks like I need to wear Crocs in Winter too

Same it hurts when have to get a bigger pair of shoes and my feet start slipping over the edge

certain brands like new balance have wide footer specific sizes

Same issue here

I did, now I have to buy new shoes 😔

Bro 💀

Be a man lol

How does this not have more likes😂

bro's built different 😂

Except when you go buy shoes and the too wide thing is a problem. If you got wide feet AND big feet, you are f***ed.

😂😂

Your mom was hilarious!

Its always funny to watch American TV shows or movies where people walk around inside with their outdoor shoes. This is considered bad etiquette where I live.

@@thezu9250they can wear socks

Yeah, I learned about that in class today actually. It was shown as a sign of beauty because a ruler saw a model do it and loved it so much that all the other women did it to themselves and their daughters in order to make them more favorable. Unfortunately, it wasn't made illegal sooner so there is still a population of old Chinese women who's feet are disfigured like that. Poor children were literally molded into becoming disabled.

@@ChrisPBacon1434 partially correct,youre right it did originated among court dancers during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period in 10th-century China, and gradually became popular among the elite during the Song dynasty. Footbinding eventually spread to lower social classes by the Qing dynasty (1636-1912). Towards the end it changed and became thar woman who wore the foot binding signified staying at home and making things like textiles,carpets, etc to help provide for the family

@@ChrisPBacon1434 another correction: the feet were not molded, they were broken and then repositioned into that shape

@@ratking9411 what🤯

Sign of beauty? The fack

Barefoot inside the house?? Isn't wearing shoes inside just asking to track mud through the carpet? Do they wear shoes when they go to bed? Why go through the extra process of putting on shoes in the morning if you're just going to stay at home? This honestly makes no sense to me.

I was just about to say, my buddy is always barefoot and squats barefoot. Widest feet I've ever seen in real life.

31 straight days of squatting?! what a legend, but idk man that is a lot of time I think you might want to take a pause

Why would you squat for a whole month. That is just asking for an injury not to mention the fact that you are not going to gain much.

@@roywempor8395 maybe he didnt Meant 31 continuous days, but is good to workout many days in a row

@@marcovazquez-ou2pv people who often workout for strength/muscle gains do workout for more than a month, many days in a row. The way they don't get injured is because there are also rest days, usually the weekends or depending on your schedule, one day you workout one muscle ans tommorow another.

Name checks out

My feet used to hurt in regular shoes. The latter found its rare for shoes to have arch support. Most put sometype of foam that deflates after a week. Turns out walking on concrete in terribleshoes flatten you foot.

your feet gonna be carrying every type of bacteria if you go barefoot there

Where is your gym? Is it in the UK?

imagine the smell

Other than the fact that flip-flops will absolutely destroy your feet and they are a horrible foundation to stand on. Your foot literally Hass to clean to the flip-flop with every step in order to keep it on, and the material used is almost always horrible quality and if you look at people wearing flip-flops just standing there you will see how caved in their ankles stance is. They are certainly beneficial to run into a store or slip on for a quick moment if necessary but absolutely not something that should ever be worn regularly

@@opdgrow4life Mr. Ben Dover, I've been wearing flip flops for the majority of my life, and I can tell you with confidence, that I don't have a single problem with my feet, ankles, or knees. If you don't know how to wear flip flops, just say so.

@@opdgrow4life nah you not entirely wrong here, I’ve seen this first hand with some. I think this happens to sedentary folks, that also wear flops all the time. A co worker of mine has the kind of ankle position you’re talking about I keep telling him to take breaks from his flops but he lives in them. His feet look like soft loaves of bread.

Hurache sandals > flip flops

​@@Tribuneoftheplebsi love huaraches in summer but they are a problem since they bind your foot. At least the flipflops let you toes open up Personally I wear Birkenstocks style leather sandals one size too big (one strap across foot and thin strap that goes around heel) that allow me to open up my feet in the summer and year round at home. My feet look nothing like my coworker and friends who wear plastic basketball shoes from 7am to 23:00 every day. When they take off their shoes/socks when we go swimming, their squished little toes and side of feet are always red.

By fingers do you mean toes (not to be rude)

I have really big hands for my age and wide feet and I can say I do see my difference in ability than others who don't have wide feet and have small hands

@@dreadedland540 lol sorry English is my 2nd language

Look into xero shoes

@@n347f0x science is the study of the world around us. Nature is part of that

@@n347f0x Bruh science is from nature, or you might say studying nature

That's how it's supposed to be. I've been doing single leg deadlifts with just a small kettlebell of 5-10 kg and it made my balance so much better

Interesting thread...

I do a lot of yoga with balance poses and gosh does it help spread out my toes.

Because of oppressive societies like the british colonizing others and telling them that they are savages and belong in an institution if they don't wear clothing that hurts. "Beauty is pain" isn't natural, it came from somewhere.

Ever since I found out of the lotus feet of China, I realized that it was all for trend and fashion

​@@nickeni3050It's also for money, how else are podiatrists going to get majority of their patients.

Where are you able to run barefoot? Like on a treadmill?

@@ghost-fs7th good question a Grass field I have previously walked thru multiple time with shoes first... You want to be sure your not going to land on sticks or anything else that can stab the foot but a nice grass field feels great on the feet.

I need some type of shock absorption because that would just kill my feet and my ankles and knees, let alone my hips shoulders and back at the end of the run.

@@Pugetwitch oh it is pretty harsh It helps if the ground is soft, with the droughts we've had this year not to much soft ground. But if you are constantly trying to improve your running form while running barefooted, you will notice you find yourself running on the " balls of your feet" really for me is typically the balls two big toes on my feet that I find myself running on to help absorb the impact. The key to running like this is to make sure you keep your feet pointed the whole time which is honestly exhausting to the Cavs and lower leg. Honestly not as bad on my hips and knees as it is when I run and choose because I don't heel strike as much when I'm barefooted which keeps me from shocking my knees and hips every step.

@@MACandanedo1 yeah I have bad joints from years of lifting weights and I prefer to ride my bike when possible. The balls of my feet get shocked really bad and cause hip pain easily if I wear poor fitting shoes. I go barefoot all the time too, it's just running is really hard for me. I don't think I can run properly either cuz I've never learned to.

Yeah there are some studies about what earthing/grounding is and how this help to your body

Who are these American people!? No one is wearing shoes 24/7 in the U.S. Most people take off their shoes once they’re in the house.

@@ShanteRoxxane There are freaks who wear shoes to bed so I’m not surprised.

Right , I’m wearing work boots nearly every day I know it’s going to come back to bite one day

I'm a geophysicist and I have to wear toe capped electrician boots whilst walking outdoors in all weather for miles back and forth in fields. It's horrible at times. It won't be forever though...

Everytime I go to site I spend the next few days cursing the moronic safety person who insisted on this. Like blisters chafs aches and pains from my feet all the way to knees and hips to try and walk differently. Like really I’ll just risk dropping something like a iPad on my foot

Thorogood boots make a nice wide steel Toe boot with plenty of wiggle room for your toes. Junked my Carolinas for them and never looked back. Most of my foot, ankle and sciatica pain has disappeared over time. Of course that pesky knee pain stays. But that’s from the abuse I gave them 😅

A year old, but look into Jim Green footwear. Nice wide toe box with some steel toe models

serious question, where are you running barefoot?

@@harrykelly1890 the beach

When you transitioned did you feel pain in your knees or foot?

@@acer650 They corrected my knee pain because mine came came from running shoes with a high drop. My feet were sore at first yeah, and maybe some knee pain if I ran at first. My Achilles were sore the most and longest out of everything but my calves grew a lot without trying in the end. It really was a 3 to 6 month process with first part being legs and feet kind of reseting. Feel free to ask any other questions.

@@rashb3994 I got barefoot shoes and when I run I start getting knee pain. It doesn’t happen when I wear typical shoes with soles cause I guess the support is there

@@acer650 It really is a baby steps with barefoot shoes, or you could injure yourself. So I would suggest just talking walks in your barefoot shoes, and stay running in your regular shoes for now. Especially if they don't give you problems. There's also transitional running shoes like Altra and Topo. Which have a low to zero drop, wider front to toe spread.

​@@acer650concrete and asphalt aren't natural to feet. People never seem to understand this.

The power of bare feet! 😂🤔 I work out at home barefoot, but I aint doin all that.😅

bro u are weird as hell

Self foot fetish

Yo, hot concrete burns like a mf. I'm barefoot most of the time besides a few hours of work but I still have misshapen feet due to shoes. I even choose the wide toe box shoes but haven't gotten the "foot shaped " shoes just yet. My pinky toes still lack strength :(

Ryu from Street Fighter lol

Hopefully their flip flops with ankle straps of some sort. As normal thong type flip-flop can cause their own problems at times. Definitely a lesser evil then normal shoes though

Yeah, why flip flops and not some kind of barefoot shoe or something? I really try not to wear those thong style except for short distances

Whats wrong with flip flops?

@@yoeyyoey8937 they cause your foot muscles to be worked in an unnatural way because of the loose back part. You can fix it by adding some ankle attachment of some sort. I'd say they can be less bad then normal over supportive shoes these days but they are not great for you either

@@Demon09-_- what does the flop part do though? Like why does it matter if it’s loose?

Love Sandals the best kind of Shoe

Not only that, you would still be walking upright when you become 90.

So true 😂

Slippers too

@@martinjugolin2087 flip flops

Bruh you must have grippy socks or floor else i would lose grip in just socks

15-18 hours a week in the gym

I know a lot of people including myself who started off with our parents putting shoes on us from young ages and also entering schools where it's mandatory to wear shoes..after leaving school for years the thing which let us have freedom from shoes, our feet have been changing but it's not really an obvious change but you can tell that there's a difference So ye, though he's right the disclaimer is that the change will happen over long period of time instead of in a year or two so you just have to be patient Of course, it's actually very rewarding too. Shoes really harmed my feet, I have many different calluses on my feet and for the longest time my legs didn't have good balance when walking but over the years of wearing slippers and crocs instead of shoes my feet have been healing well and I've regained some good balance on my feet

You find any info on that i’d like to know too

At least the ones I’ve looked at online are hella expensive. Maybe you’d get a better deal if you go hunting for them at shops, malls etc.

Merrell has some more affordable options (still around $100, but they last way longer than a $20 pair of cheap shoes). Vibram Five fingers has a variety of shoes with varying pricing, as long as you're okay with toed shoes. Vivobarefoot is expensive as hell but very very nice quality and longevity (pretty much all of them you will wear holes in the sole before anything else breaks). All of them often have discounts and sales around holidays and pre-seasons (summer and winter usually) if you can't afford them full price.

That’s a bit of a reach

Never let the facts get in the way of a good Ted talk.

@@lucasgroves137 lol facts need to get in the way of a lot of shit

@@bideny2 Yes. That's what it means, actually. It's the oblique version, favored by people who prefer snowflakes to hail.

They did this by forcing their feet into extremely small shoes as young kids, so as their feet grew they “smashed”

They broke, bound then forced them into small lotus type shapes

As weird as the 1500's corset phase, the african neck stretching phase and removing foreskin for a sleeker looking wang and so much more. Humans have done a lot of stupid body modifications as rites and still do.

I was born with ridiculously flat feet. After an injury in my childhood my knees hurt every single day. Aching, sometimes hot or burning, and the ligaments would cramp so hard I would just collapse and scream in pain. It was like my leg was getting twisted off at the knee. Doctors said I would be in a wheelchair by 30. I didn't like that, so I started a journey. The first thing I did was balance my walk. The insides of my shoes wore out before the soles, so I would intentionally roll on the outside of my foot and make sure I put pressure on the foot as a whole at the end of the stride. In a year, I wasn't walking on the inside of my feet or having my knees turn inwards. In another year, I had gained the strength needed to not focus on every single step and could walk naturally. Junior year I took up kickboxing. It was one of the hardest I've ever worked, and withing a month my knees, hips, and back didn't hurt at all. My body had the strength it needed to support all those old, ill treated injuries. Then I graduated and got a job. In half a year, it all returned. Poor working conditions cause horrible stress and declining mental health. I was in stiff shoes on hard floors, standing and walking and lifting over 10 hours for 5-6 days a week. It was miserable. The pain went from my knees to my hips, spine, neck and eventually shoulders, strains and injuries piled up until I was receiving another before healing from the first. After a transfer to a much better place, I started at square one again. I researched everything under the sun. I had to wear a light compression wrap on both knees every day. Then go home and work out to ensure I wasn't causing too much weakness from the support. It took 4 years for me to move to a tendon wrap, but it did reduce the pain, reduce swelling, and help me not twist anything. I put gel heel supports in my shoes. Not full gels as they can reduce foot stability, or memory foam as it only lasts an hour. During the worst of it I was also wearing a wrap around back brace, driving to work with a neck brace, and sleeping with braces and pillows keeping my neck still, joints supported and bent or lifted for relaxation. I had to get up at 4 or 5 for work and would do a round of therapy stretches as I found ones that helped. Three years of living like this, but it did cut the pain. A lot. It was a lifetime of injuries catching up, but they were getting dealt with all at once. It was brutal, but not as brutal as living in agony with no hope. I picked up a Katana and watched as my upper back, shoulders and neck all strengthened and fell into place. It was slow going, but I got there. At almost four years everything seemed fixed-except my actual feet. The meat of them was hurting with an all consuming ache and burn. I kept buying doctor recommended shoe after shoe and it got worse and worse. Because they were all narrow shoes DESIGNED to squeeze your foot for "support". My toes were all folded almost on top of one another. I bought a man's pair of work shoes, and my feet were still sore, but in a working muscle kind of way. The next pair were a mens 3e wide. I could feel my toes flexing and moving, as I watched my stride I noticed, for the first time on my life, I has an arch. Just a little bitty one, but still there. Now, as long as I keep up on my leg exercises--i never run downhill, and when I walk downhill I really bend my knees so the muscles take the impact instead of the joint, I work squats with slightly outurned feet and knees, keep up on back stretches-- I have a better body in my my mid 20s than I did as a child. Most people don't want to put in that kind of work. But there is no majic pill. I'm telling you it's worth it.

It’s because our body adapts to what we do

Asian gang no shoes inside house

I doubt you'll see much difference unless you maybe work at home or are constantly at home all day. These people with spread feet are in the jungle walking on all kinds of harsh shit, not on nice comfy rugs and shit lol.

@@stanleyhape8427 True, but that's what house slippers are for- to avoid dragging chewed gum and dog poo particles all over the house. Heel Spurs suck, I use deer form house slippers cuz the foam is really thick.

Im always barefooted or in flip flops most of the time, i only wear shoes when going to school, but my feet are naturally narrow, probably because of my chinese blood but i digress, i always thought that having wider feet would give me more stability and turns out im right. So i would really love to have a foot like yours.

Shame they grow up to be in a very unhealthy environment, assuming it's in a city of course

I think Asian just like barefoot. My friend prefer barefoot when they playing soccer, its dangerous thought

Lol that’s what I said hahaha

Didn't they break their feet and stuff them into the shoe

The fact that it's possible for your toes to literally meld into your foot with foot binding is proof of adaption due to mutilation. Your body decides it doesn't need the nails anymore, so the nails drop off.

Crocs bro

@@Modernhabitus those are so narrow

You’re not looking hard enough brother. You can buy good affordable barefoot shoes from Amazon for as cheap as 2,499 rupees. This is what I did. Brands such as Nike and Adidas are not interested in the barefoot market.
