    Mastering Movement | From Circus Arts to Stunt Work with Yuri Marmerstein

    We have a very special guest on the Barefoot Science podcast today by the name of Yuri Marmerstein, who has performed extensively as an acrobat, is very much involved in teaching the physical arts, and he has veered into stunt work with film and TV. Surprisingly, Yuri wasn’t very active as a child and the skills that he now has were mainly all developed in his adulthood, and for the most part he is self taught. Listen in today to hear the various interesting ideas and concepts Yuri shares with our hosts! How he got started in all this 3:00School and modern day exercise 6:30Performing in a circus 16:20What’s next 25:00Barefoot and balance 33:30Early day stunts 40:15Enjoying the process 45:30 “One of the main differences between stunts and the circus is in the circus you’re trying to look good, pretty, and controlled, but for stunts you’re trying to look as out of control as possible while still being in control. So that’s a pretty interesting performance characteristic.” 2:50 @yuri_marmerstein  www.yuri-mar.com www.youtube.com/@yurimar/videos

There’s a big piece of acknowledging someone’s feelings of course, and then helping them get through that and figure out how to move through and get through to the positive end of it. There’s a huge mental coaching capacity. The mindset is huge when recovering from an injury.” 19:53 @the.backpain.trainer www.thebackpaintrainer.com https://www.thebackpaintrainer.com/barefoot https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/10/221018131143.htm

    A Deep Dive into Natural Running with Ken Bob Saxton | Step Lightly

    On this week’s episode, Katie talks to the barefoot running sensation and “original” barefoot runner, Ken Bob Saxton. When Ken Bob began racing exclusively barefoot in 1997, he found that people had a lot of questions, so he decided to compile all his answers in one place, which led him to founding the website barefootrunning.com in 1997. Ken is someone who will go shoeless at every opportunity he can and he has even done multiple marathons while barefoot. Join us to hear the benefits and great things he has to say about barefoot running.  Ken almost never wears shoes 3:50Foot structure and effects on the foot from going barefoot 10:00Practice vs training, and relax 26:00Writing a book about how to run barefoot 35:15 Some of the “secrets” to barefoot running 37:00Elevation races 46:00 “The odd thing that I tell people and people have trouble with this concept, is lift your feet before it lands. Trust me, it will still land, but as you’re coming down to the ground, you’re starting to lift your feet to your body, but your body is also coming down, so all you’re really doing is slowing down the impact. You’re decelerating your foot as it lands. So you’re coming down, bending your knee, but you’re not actually bending your foot up. You’re just slowing its descent down so that it touches gently. It’s really difficult for people to get that.” 38:49 barefootrunning.com

    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. How Heidi got to her fascination with feet 3:15The shoes are very important 8:15Assessing clients’ feet 14:15Feet, the nervous system, and fitness 23:00Cycling shoes are terrible 29:25The shoes that Heidi wears 36:40High arches 48:00 “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 www.thatbarefootcoach.com @thatbarefootcoach

    Michael Adeniran’s Journey into Endurance Sports | Balancing Running, Strength Training, and High Endurance Sports

    Today Stuart and Katie had the opportunity to talk with Michael Adeniran, who is a weekend warrior as they call it. A while back he got into running, and then triathlons, ultra running, iron mans, Spartan races, obstacle courses, and so forth. He’s got a lot of experience now with all these different events and with that, a substantial amount of wisdom to share with us and our listeners.  How Michael got started 3:15Going back to the basic human functions 9:00Doing an Iron Man 20:30His day job 23:15The importance of strength training 29:00Obstacle course races 35:00The shoes he wears to run 36:30 “The more you get into the running life, you seem to stop doing as much strength training, and that’s where the injuries start happening. I remember in the early days of running, I didn’t have any injuries whatsoever, but that’s because I was more a strength trainer doing some running, but as I’ve become a runner doing a little bit of strength training, you see the differences in your body strength, and imbalances that come.” 29:15 www.instagram.com/theurbanchallengertheurbanchallenger.com
