About this listen

Many work hard on good posture and better walking and running alignment, but it’s critical to understand how what you put on your feet each day can play a bigger role in the function of your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and spine than you might realize.

“By applying the principles in this book, you will be able to restore your foundation and prevent dysfunction.” Ray McClanahan, DPM

Biomechanist and author of Simple Steps to Foot Pain Relief, Katy Bowman offers walkers, runners, and health professionals alike clear, accessible lessons on how the shape of shoes can play a role in painful feet, knees, and hips and what to do about it.

When we have painful feet and weak ankles it seems like stiff, supportive shoes are the answer, but this solution can be temporary, especially if our issues stem from foot and leg weakness. In short, humans come with great “foot technology,” we just need to learn how to use it.

Minimal footwearshoes that protect your feet while still letting them move freely is gaining traction (get it?). Being barefoot is a natural human movement, but research shows simply kicking off our shoe-shackles and releasing our feet into the wild can result in injury. Whole Body Barefoot will help you safely and effectively transition to minimal footwear, reaping the enormous benefits of freeing your feet without injuring yourself along the way. A great book to listen to as you move working outside, during a walk or a marathon training run!

NOTE: Once you purchase this title, an accompanying PDF with exercise photographs and bulleted instructions will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Katy Bowman is my new favourite author!

As a parent of a young child I’m thankful I found Katy Bowman’s books when I did. I’m so hopeful I can guide my child towards a life without painful feet with the knowledge about footwear choices and body movement.
Also the bloopers reels at the end really are glorious! A perfect way to end my night shift drive home, giggling all the way.
