More than a few of the coaches and athletes at CFB have been training barefoot for some time. Barefoot running, barefoot weight lifting and functional movements performed at high intensity seem to go together like peanut butter and jelly. But we had to put a stop to this as it isn't very sanitary in a gym setting so we need a new option. And since Vibrams are not an option due to the "mandatory" foot stomping rule we implemented last yea,r we needed something new. With a little research we came across these shoes made by Barefoot Ted.
Orders have been made and we are waiting on a few pairs.
Honestly, not sure how this is going to go but in the interest of avoiding the heel strike and increasing foot strength, I am interested in giving them a try.
I will keep you posted.
