Summary
In this conversation, Chris and Bill delve into the concept of the 'performance foot,' exploring how foot adaptations can vary among athletes and the implications for performance and health. They discuss the importance of understanding the biomechanics of the foot, the role of pelvis orientation in sprinting, and the balance between achieving high performance and maintaining health. The conversation highlights the need for a nuanced approach to foot structure and function, emphasizing that not all adaptations are detrimental and that managing these adaptations is crucial for athletic success. #physicaltherapy #foot #strengthtraining #injuryprevention #performance
