(Head to my stories to see my favorite barefoot shoes!)
Expecting to go from a super cushioned shoe to a completely flat shoe without any preparation is like wanting to exercise because you know it’s good for you but suddenly going for sprints, heavy barbell squats & box jumps….
Probably wouldn’t recommend it!!
You’ll likely end up injured.
Just like exercise, we need to properly prepare the body and progress gradually into something new.
Start with these 5 exercises WEEKLY!
I promise, overtime, you’ll start to notice your toes magically pulling apart and you’ll be amazed!
Send me a DM. I love to hear these wins! ☺️
Then treat yourself with some @vivobarefoot shoes!!
Early Christmas gift to yourself?!

Work into gradually spending more time in the shoes.
Maybe start with little walk around the neighborhood.
Or a quick grocery run.
Start small. Slowly build up your foot’s tolerance to move & work in a more barefoot style shoe.
Vivobarefoot has conducted studies to show that even without exercise, wearing barefoot shoes alone can help improve your foot strength by 60% !!
That’s huge!
Improving strength = improving resilience = less prone to pain & injury.
EVEN IF YOU HAVE OR HAVE HAD FOOT ISSUES, start small, and give your feet a chance.
Our body has an amazing ability to adapt, improve and grow if we give it the environment and opportunity to do so 🙌
