I am very over weight but that is not a factor in my foot pain apparently. My specialist told me so. I asked twice

My feet are doing marvelous now

Hunterking can you try not to troll this topic? Must be hard but please try. We sincerely want to make use of this topic

I didn't even read the front page. I don't know what this thread is about. I was scrolling past your comment and got a bit pissed off because of how long it was and how long it took me to just get past it, so I decided to read it. Anyway, I'm not trolling. Feet problems = overweight/obese problems. I'm not being rude.

Good to see you've made some progress.
I still haven't found a decent all female gym... thinking of doing a martial arts or boxing class instead.. I used to love it..

[SimplySerene]

all best the in finding what you are looking for.

I have considered taking a self defence course for sometime. Something like Jiu-Jitsu and kicking boxing. Maybe I will do it later on

Weight is not the only factor in being flat footed but it does have it's place. It mostly has to do with our posture and the reliance on chairs shortening the hip flexors which in turn rotate the knees inwards causing us to use more of the inside of the feet.

If you stand up and literally clench your butt cheeks while slightly pushing your hips forwards you can feel the weight distribution change to the outside of your foot giving you a more natural pronation. You'll also see yourself standing more upright with better posture. Most postural problems stem from the hips.

At the gym you should try to accompany your routine with some light hip flexor stretching exercises, just two will do. Add some glute exercises to fix your posture.

LOL YM thanks huuno!

I'm exhausted these because of work, but Alhamdulilah I am still hitting the gym 5 days a week. However, I've been lazy when it comes to eating well so my goal is to do some meal prep for the week Insha'Allah so I don't have to cook after work.
