That stability exercise is gold! I don’t know why people don’t spend more time on foot strength at the gym. It’s the first place I hurt on long hikes.
Thanks for this. I have had a fixed big toe for some years. I have transitioned to barefoot shoes 2 years ago and I am amazed at how these exercises open up you toes and feet. Love you content and thanks for not being a ‘shouty’ trainer who strut there sculpted bodies and jump on the latest dietary trend. Keep it coming and I will check out your app. 🤜
Great experience for your feet. That is one thing I work all the time. I love standing on my tippy toes when standing still. I've been doing that since I was a kid. It is very important to keep your feet healthy. I see so many people that have feet issues.
Thank you thank you thank you for this video!!!!
My left big toe is super stiff and painful. Already with a little work it feels better.
I have suffered with Gout for many years and the big toes are quite stiff due to damage caused over those years. Thanks for this video the exercises look doable for me so will definitely be trying them.
Thanks Chase. I have been massaging my toes for just over two months now. They were very rigid when I started, but are really loosening up now. The big toes are still only partly mobile, but I'm going to continue. I've found I am now "gripping" the ground with my toes rather more and my balance has shifted away from my heels and towards the front of my foot. Strong toes seem to act as shock absorbers and provide the body with extra "suspension".
The flexion positions are so important to my recovery after hiking, and I am so thankful to have learned them from watching one of your videos many months ago. Much appreciated!
Appreciate you sharing your thoughts comparing feet to tree roots. After TPF fractures three years ago, left big toe & foot had excruciating nerve zingers while gradually getting feeling back, regrowth and reconnecting damaged nerves. I practice sitting on heels in plantar position, will start working this dorsi position too. Being careful not to put too much pressure on TPF plate and screws, gradually and gently load evenly. Thanks si much for sharing!
Dude!! I've been struggling to move only the big toe, just like you described, so frustrating, I eventually gave up the effort. First person I've seen on here going into this depth! Thanks a lot...gonna go work on it now 😂
Super helpful video chase, thanks. I’m gonna try these immediately!
Really nice video!
Beautiful cinematic intro, and instructive in the rest. Thanks!
I can attest to the problems up the leg from a bad big toe and these exercises are excellent thanks your stretch routines have really helped me thanks
Thank you!
This is awesome! Thank you!
Hi, Chase! Thank you for great workout program. My right foot toes work much better than my left. I am inside my socks. Rollin my ankles, moving my toes is comfortable, relaxing. I need to set up your program. Thank you, Chase.
Nice. Looks helpful. I've been doing Asian squats and then rock my ankles by driving my big toes. It's been helpful for ankle mobility.
Funny thing is I started moving individual toes when Inwas just a kid. Now I am in mid 40' still can move almost all toes individually. It takes few seconds to move it but afterwards no problem with repeating it. Still have to work on strength of the feet but half way there already
Another good routine in the bank. Thanks Chase
I love your videos, I do a lot of hiking but also have been doing yoga for years and foot care is a big part of that - this is brilliant, thanks for reminding me why I sit on the floor doing these exercises subconsciously these days.
Hey Thanks
Love your videos... do you happen to have any good stretches/movements for loosening up a tight ITB. Saw your pre-walk morning movement thing which helps a little but I'm going very specific here 🙈 thanks!
Will have to test this out! Thanks! 👌 Any good tips on how to best recover your feet after a long multiday hike?
1:50 waouw.. it truely is relaxing to do that exercice. Thanks for that tip. What about grabbing the big toe and turning it in circles ? Have been doing it for a couple of months and it seems to help (and the "cracks" are pleasant too :D )
I think you can also mention that a very easy "exercice" is simply to walk barefoot as much as possible, and to wear barefoot shoes when you can't
Hi Mountain chaser. Thank you for sharing your really clear and doable exercises. You mentioned your friend whom lost his toes. May I ask if this had to do with a disease from a mosquito bite? Dengue?? Bec I am just about to travel to an island with this scarry little fuckers😅. Thank you again for your channel❤
This has been really helpful! I was wondering if you have any suggestions for Achilles tendinitis? Or a future video about it? I hurt mine last year attempting to hike the Appalachian trail and it never healed itself 😢even after going to the doctor or pt
Thanks Chase my big toe on my left fot is painful have you any exercises that my help that.
I have a question…been wearing a 1/4” heel lift on the left side for years. My right leg is 1/2” longer due to a leg break at a young age. Been wearing zero shoes for a bit and wondering what your thoughts/experience is with a hill lift for over all health?
Thanks
I'm a bit over forty, and I just started feeling soreness in my big toes about a week ago. Talk about good timing, man! Thanks!
Your age is not the problem! Hiking alone is not enough exercise to ensure fitness.
How do I know if I do the rocking/stepping move right/wrong?
I found a big imbalance in my 2 big toes where my right was significantly more mobile than my left. Looking forward to balancing that and unlocking some better mobility in both 👍
I found the same thing, I wonder why.
Probably started with skateboarding for me. lots of repeated movements and I'm not good enough going switch to balance it out on the other side lol also just more confident in terms of dexterity in my right foot so I use it more @@Islander185
Do you have any suggestions when you have lost the feeling in a part of your big toe after hiking for a month?
Yeah I had that once from frostbite, not cool. Basically, more movement and stimulating the tissue is my recommendation. All the exercises I share here and on Instagram (and more in my programs) will help.
I get a really dull pain in my big toe joint whenever i start hiking and its really bothering me as im fit otherwise and its impeding my aim to complete the munroes of scotland.i hear it could be stiff big toe or arthritis. Ever heard of these chase?
If the dull pain is on a bone , joint, and/or cartilage, get your serum uric acid level checked.
@@RB-fp8hn I was thinking that, I suffer with Gout and those are the first symptoms before the pain.
Thanks for the reply. Il check that out.
@@StoatingaboutScotland They're probably rigid if you've not been massaging them - which most of us don't. DO IT. You've not got gout (which is why you would be concerned about uric acid). You cannot walk if you have gout, it's much too painful.
@@RB-fp8hn I doubt it would have anything to do with gout! If you have gout you cannot walk.
I can figure out what one of my toes is swollen after a hike. Did nothing to it, nothing more frustrating than a foot injury on the go!
Thanks, but way too slow and long. Maybe 90 seconds next time.
Way too fast IMO. Foot and toe massages are for life.
Looking for a zero drop option for mountains to fit crampons. Is there such a thing?
not to my knowledge. But I wouldn't be too concerned about it
