Moving my images here since Photobucket has apparently gone rogue
First off thanks for that video! Really well done and gives me hope that I'm heading in the right direction. I've subscribed to your channel. I think I'm definitely going to go towards shoes over sandals for that very reason. I've got my Lone Peaks and they are really cushy. Not sure if all that extra cushion will be a hindrance or not. I've also got a pair of Lems Primal 2s in for day to day casual wear to help keep strengthening my feet and a pair of New Balance Minimus shoes for work and light hikes. Hoping to build up my feet to where I can do full backpacking trips in fully minimalist footwear. I just like the grounded and stable feeling I get when barefoot.
Also, thanks for the jump roping tip. I'll have to dig out my old rope and start incorporating it back into my routine. Sounds like it's going to be a killer way to help strengthen everything.
I grew up in Ky so I know exactly what you mean.
I used to run around the woods barefoot all summer. Shame I stopped and started keeping myself in shoes as I got older.
I like my Lone Peaks, but they are overly cushy. I've got a pair of New Balance Minimus coming in to try for work (with steel toe slip on cover
) I'm going to try some hikes in those, but if I find the 4mm drop in them to be too much then the Superior's are next in line.
