    533: How to Rehab Your Feet with Christopher Ioannou

    Christopher McDougal’s 2009 book, Born to Run, brought minimal footwear and the importance of healthy feet to the forefront of fitness conversations internationally. At the time, there were just a couple minimal-style shoe companies in existence, today there are dozens.

Plantar fasciitis, bunions, hammertoe, and overlapping toes are just a handful of the many problems that can arise from this modern foot binding practice. The good news is that there are solutions and this week’s guest is here to talk you through them.

    Listen and learn

    • Why your toes should be the widest part of your foot
    • What “zero drop” means and why it’s important
