Barefoot Benefits | Unlocking Peak Performance Through Foot Function
Today Katie and Stuart have a lovely guest from the United States named Heidi van Mastrigt, who is a fitness trainer that focuses massively on foot function and myofascial tissue function as well. The feet are our one point of contact with the ground. Everything starts with the feet. Heidi learned this the hard way from breaking her foot at the peak of her dance career and suffering for years with overuse injuries without realizing her foot was the root cause. Heidi works with athletes of all levels that want to improve their movement integrity and prevent injury in the long run. It is her goal for people to have longevity in their sport and do what they love for as long as possible.

“A lot of people who have worn shoes their entire lives, are introduced to this, ‘Train barefoot!’ it’s better, you’re going to stimulate the muscles, even like up the chain, your glutes are going to fire a lot better if you don’t have socks and shoes on, and to see the light bulbs go off and see people then prefer, like ‘Oh my gosh!’ It’s like a whole new world for so many people because they’ve just kinda been locked up in socks and cushioned heeled tapered toed shoes.” 25:55
