Proper big toe mobility is crucial for efficient movement and overall lower limb health. But most people don’t realize the real reason why it commonly becomes limited. When your posture shifts forward, placing your center of gravity over your forefoot, it can restrict the extension of your big toe....

I got turf toe in 2005. Still very tight. Almost ended my football career.

This is a big one. So common too! One major cause is the overcrowding of the toes in narrow shoes. You get hallux valgus and poor extension for years and years.

I love this post because this is something that is very overlooked. Gait starts from the ground-up! Lacking mobility in these areas will lead to poor gait and compensating which will ultimately lead to pain in the low back and hips. #PSUClinExPhy @invinceible24

Great analysis. The early heel lift shifts everything forward, causing most lower extremity issues seen clinically.

Something like this shouldn’t be overlooked. Everything starts from the ground up. Don’t neglect your feet. @invinceible24 #PSUClinExPhy

A root cause of tight hamstrings, poor posture, and lower back pain? Weak hips - one of the most under trained muscle groups. It can even have a domino effect and lead to knee and ankle issues. One strategy to avoid this is “Copenhagens”. NBA players do these for injury prevention, improving stability and balance. Great to do at home and uses the lateral flexion movement pattern of your spine. Too hard? Rest your knee instead of foot on the bench. Too easy? Bend your off-knee and perform them weighted with a plate. Execution: 1. Support your bodyweight on your elbow (should be directly under your shoulder). 2. Place the inside of your foot on a bench. 3. Lift your hip off the floor by pushing your foot down onto the bench.

Steve Young on Brock Purdy’s injury: “It’s the ligament in the big toe. He’s a righty so it’s on his right foot and that’s the plant foot… The whole throw is through your right big toe if you think about it. So for Brock, you saw him last week, he had to stay off of it. So what you do is you start your throwing motion, and you can’t dig in with your toe, so you come over the top like a catapult, so all of a sudden your throws are high and not as crisp. So you have to manage.” 🎥: PTI

Foot position at contact is always important, but many don’t realize how extending your toe forward and rotating the top of the foot to face up will actually allow your hips to clear more efficiently. Try not to swing your foot through the ball like a putter. Think of it more like a full golf swing.

This home lunge superset isn't for the faint of heart. The burning heat in your legs will beg you to stop, but the strength and growth you'll reap make it all worth it. 4 sets of 12 forward lunges, then 12 Reverse right away. Build a lower body that stands the test of time: Lunge Form Cues Set-Up: Stand tall with feet hip-width apart, hands on hips or at your sides. Alignment: Keep your chest up and shoulders back. Step: Take a big step forward, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at 90 degrees. Brace: Engage your core and maintain balance as your front foot lands to stabilize the movement. Push: Drive through your front heel to return to the starting position. Breathing: Inhale as you lower into the lunge, exhale as you push back up. 5 Lunge mistakes and how to avoid them 1. Taking Too Small a Step - What Happens: A short step limits the range of motion, reducing muscle activation in the glutes and quads. - Fix: Step far enough forward to allow both knees to bend at 90 degrees. 2. Rising Onto the Front Toes - What Happens: Lifting the heel shifts balance and reduces engagement of the glutes and hamstrings. - Fix: Keep your front foot flat, pressing firmly through the heel. 3. Poor Hip Alignment - What Happens: Tilting or rotating the hips reduces balance and proper muscle engagement. - Fix: Keep your hips square and aligned with your torso throughout the movement. 4. Feet Too Narrow or Wide - What Happens: Misaligned foot placement reduces stability and increases the chance of losing balance. - Fix: Keep your feet hip-width apart to maintain balance and proper alignment during the lunge. 5. Not Engaging the Core - What Happens: A weak core reduces balance and stability, increasing the risk of wobbling. - Fix: Brace your core upon landing to absorb the impact and keep your torso steady and aligned. Reverse Lunge Form Cues Set-Up: Stand tall with feet hip-width apart, hands on hips or at your sides. Alignment: Keep your chest lifted, core engaged, and shoulders back. Step: Step one leg back, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at 90 degrees. Land: Land on the top of your back foot with the toes pointed to stretch the ankle and prevent assistance from the toes. Push: Drive through your front heel to return to the starting position. Breathing: Inhale as you lower into the lunge, exhale as you push back up. 5 Reverse Lunge Mistakes and how to avoid them: 1. Using the Toes for Support on the Back Foot - What Happens: Relying on the back toes reduces the stretch in the ankle and shifts focus away from the front leg. - Fix: Land on the top of your back foot with the toes pointed to stretch the ankle and isolate the front leg fully. 2. Leaning Forward - What Happens: Leaning forward places unnecessary strain on the lower back and reduces engagement of the glutes and quads. -Fix: Keep your chest up and shoulders back to maintain an upright posture.Letting the Front Knee 3. Collapse Inward - What Happens: Knee valgus increases stress on the knee joint and reduces stability. - Fix: Ensure the front knee tracks over the middle of your foot throughout the movement. 4. Letting the Front Knee Collapse Inward - What Happens: Knee valgus increases stress on the knee joint and reduces stability. - Fix: Ensure the front knee tracks over the middle of your foot throughout the movement. 5. Pushing Off the Back Foot - What Happens: Using the back foot to assist reduces the workload on the front leg. - Fix: Focus on driving through the heel of the front foot to return to the starting position.

Being on the outside of your foot while bending is a recipe for slipping. Big toe in the ground = control to bend the edge. The best guys all do this consistently. Look at these Shin Angles!

Eye twitching, or myokymia, is often linked to high cortisol—the stress hormone your body releases during times of pressure. While it may seem like a minor annoyance, it can be your body’s way of signaling elevated stress levels. When cortisol remains high for prolonged periods, it can disrupt the nervous system, leading to these involuntary muscle spasms. 👁️ For women in their 30s and 40s, managing work, family, and life can create the perfect storm for chronic stress. Fortunately, there are ways to address both eye twitching and the stress that contributes to it: •

You don’t need to toe drag. Most young athletes try to toe drag because they’ve seen it in some elite sprinters and assume it’s the cause of speed. That’s the first mistake. Actively dragging the toe doesn’t help you accelerate. Creating friction against the ground outside

'If you were diabetic, I’d have cut it off.' — Belal Muhammad’s doctor on his toe infection.😲🏥 "Since the toe was broken, the infection went straight into the bone and got in there quicker. So it spread a lot faster. The doctor took a piece of the bone from the toe to know exactly what antibiotics to give me. He was like, 'If you’d waited a couple more days, it would have grown up the foot. You're lucky — most people that have bone infections are diabetics, and a lot of the time I’m cutting it right away. I’m either cutting a toe, cutting a foot — it’s coming off. I see you being healthy and your body fighting it." 🎥 '

There's a 60 second test that determines how old you are and most people over 40 will fail it. It's called the Old Man Test. 1. Stand barefoot with your shoes and socks in front of you. 2. Lift one foot. 3. Put on a sock, then a shoe, tie it. Foot never touches the ground. 4. Switch sides. Do the same thing. As you age, balance becomes the canary in the coal mine. The good news is you can improve it at any age. - Don't be excessively fat - Build lower body strength using single leg exercises - Walk heel to toe across the kitchen - Stand on one foot while brushing your teeth - Get off the couch without using your hands - Lift weights 3x a week. Try it out and let me know in the comments if you passed or failed.

Great stretch for people who sit at desks all day or deal with low back pain. It's called the Tactical Frog. One of the most overlooked areas of the lower body is the inner thigh aka. the adductor. Inflexible or weak adductors can reduce hip mobility as well as cause knee and low back pain. Improving your adductors improves your hip mobility, which is crucial for anyone that sits at a desk for long periods of time. How to do this: 1. Start with hands and knees on the ground. Neutral spine with shins on the ground. 2. Spread your knees apart as far as possible 3. Push your butt back to your ankles. Start on your hands first and if you're flexible enough use your forearms for support. With any stretch, you always go where your range of motion allows you to go. Do this for a set of 30-60 seconds daily and breathe while performing it. Your hips will thank you.
