The rough estimate is that around 11 percent ofadults have flat feet, whilehaving high foot archesaffect around 10-15 percent. Everyone else is considered ‘normal’. The statistics indicate that children have higher rates of foot deformities – but perhaps this is just because attentive parents ...
Here, my foot has a healthy kidney bean shape, with intact inner, outer, and transverse arches (note: the arches are extra pronounced here as my foot is up on a bench and unweighted). Some useful exercises to help your feet get some natural arch back are the inchworm, “eat the cloth...
[Purpose] The purpose of the study was to discover why people who have flat feet show a higher risk of damage to the musculoskeletal system than those who have normal feet. Furthermore, we examined the kinematic differences in the lower extremity between flat feet and normal feet in individual...

Now that we’ve established that benching in a straight line is impossible when we stay over the shoulder joint, we have to wonder what is the precise way that we should move the bar? The sooner we can get the bar back over our shoulder joint, the better. This is the position of be...

Traditional robotic feet have been typically flat and rigid with a plantar-dorsiflexion joint or universal joint at the ankle. Such designs typically only allow short shuffling strides that are inefficient and cannot cope with uneven surfaces [15]. In recent years there has been some progress in ...
