Jump Rope to Fix Your Feet 

Great! If you find it hard to resist pronation, when jumping, try keeping your ankles in contact while jumping, to give you proper feedback.

Thank You! I hope those exercises helped your feet.

Surgery is expensive and risky. Im glad you have found an alternative that is working for you.

ArrangingClouds, is skipping good when you suffer with plantar fasciitis or that will aggravate it? Thanks

@@mvc9192 I think fallen arches (flat feet) are often linked to plantar fasciitis. However, with Plantar fasciitis you need to stretch your calf muscles every day, don’t walk barefoot on sand and go and see a specialist. All my problems with fallen arches started with plantar fasciitis and you should do everything to fix the problem now before they get worse.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I guess I can blame it on obscurity. I hope you found this video useful.

Yes! The key to starting right, is in a manageable dosage...stop before/when form breaks down.

Great! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching!

Seriously man. Uncut knowledge here, he isn’t selling Anything. I appreciate the work and thought you put into this. Thank You

Great! It will take some work...start with your ankles close together, to keep your feet from overpronation in the eccentric

Yes, Just start with 30 sec Jump/rest intervals to build stamina and technique.

Flexible. And yes, I fixed them.

Watch my one fix for Plantar fasciitis video... 4x12 as heavy as possible machine calf raises, with a focus on the eccentric..

One thing to consider. If an exercice is good for foot strengh, foot function, foot mobility or anything else, it could also be a bad thing if you do it too much and toi SOON. It's all about quantity and about progresivity. It's like if someone play badminton for 1h a week and want to progress. If you make him play 10h a week, he will hurt himself! He should play 3h for a few month, then 5h ... Etc.. For your case, Skipping rope, and barefoot shoes are great ways to strenghen your foot and optimise their function. But you can't go to fast! You have to add just a few minutes of jump rope to beggin with (even if you don't feel fatigued, it doesn't mean that your feet are not getting stronger). Same for the vivobarefoot! Why not wearing them for 1/2 hours maximum 3 days a week ? Let a few week goes by, them increase slightly... Progresivity is such a long road... It's boring... But it's what make a difference between a hurt foot, and a more functional foot. And keep in mind, you Can NOT progress too slowly ! Even if it's boring, it's better to make a very long transition to make sure your body can adapt to these new stimuli

Well after about 2 mths of the flat feet exercises (practicing every other day), you should be able to have the ability to go in and out of pronation and hold a "short foot" position..once you can establish that control, then you will be ready to jump rope.

Vibram El-x

Jumping without the rope is fine and a great way to develop balance and stamina, until your ready to use the jump rope.

I wouldn't use this to treat Plantar Fasciitis pain. It is a good exercise for the plantar fascii, just not to treat fasciitis.

This exercise will definitely fatigue the calves, but focus on landing only on the forefoot and gripping the ground with your toes when you elevate. Think of it as doing "calf raises" for your toes.

I would avoid jumping rope, until you are able to move pain free.

Thank you!

Yes, but start with short time intervals (before fatigue/pain) and progressively increase with each session.

@@GrownandHealthy sir arch supporters good for overpronation

Try these: Practice with feet together (touching) Shorten your intervals and add time as you progress.

@@GrownandHealthy noted... Thanks!

Be mindful of your form and try not to jump higher than an inch.
