You know, Vibram, the guys who made the FiveFinger shoes, there was a lawsuit against them because it showed that what they do is not good for you, that you get hurt wearing their shoes, right? Maybe not. You know there's studies that show that if you run barefoot, you're going to get injured, right? Not so much.

Could getting a blister on your foot be the most important, valuable thing that ever happens to you as a runner. Crazy as that sounds.  I want to encourage you to ponder what your body is doing.

Problems can actually help you figure out what really is going on and that might allow you to make the changes needed to correct them.

Should you be running longer, slower, or shorter, faster, which is better for your health. Let's take a look today at high intensity interval training in The MOVEMENT Movement podcast. People have been talking about it for a while but lately I've just been seeing more and more people coming out with courses on High Intensity Interval Training, and saying why doing high intensity intervals is better for you than running long, as doing long slow distance, whether you're running or on an elliptical or on a cycle, whatever it is. Hi, I'm Steven Sashen and The MOVEMENT Movement podcast is for people who want to know the truth about what it takes to have a happy, healthy, strong body. We get rid of the mythology and the propaganda and while sometimes the outright lies that people tell you about what it takes to do that by moving naturally, you can follow us at www.jointhemovementmovement.com.

I know that sounds crazy, but we'll jump in and find out how that works. I'm Steven Sashen from the movement movement podcast.

Hi, Steven Sashen here, and in this video, you’re going to learn how to pick a good running shoe. The information comes from, in large part, this paper from the American College of Sports Medicine. It's also coming from experience that I have, so I'll be adding my editorial, but most of this is coming from the ACSM and their recommendations. So, let's just jump right in. The ACSM says “Running shoes should be selected after careful consideration. With so many brands and styles of shoes on the marketing today, it is important to find the best fit for your feet and needs. There is no ‘right shoe’ that fits all runners. However, research and injury patterns have shown there are some general characteristics of a good, safe running shoe.” Now, before we get started, I want to warn you that what you're about to learn flies completely in the face of what you will hear from most people trying to sell you running shoes. You go to your average running shoe store; they will tell you the exact opposite of what you're abo

We all know the story of the boy who cried wolf, and at the end of the story, the villagers stopped running to find the nonexistent wolf, which didn't end up very well for the boy. Well, what if there was an industry that's been effectively and essentially crying wolf? The difference here is that every time they say, “if we keep running and we pull out our wallets and give them money to get the wolf, that isn't there.” Well, that's what we're going to be talking about on today's episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, the podcast for people who want to know the truth about how to have a healthy, happy, strong body by doing what bodies are made to do, and that is move. I'm Steven Sashen. I'm the CEO of Xero Shoes. That's XeroShoes.com, and I'm here to help you do whatever it is you'd like to do…walk, hike, do yoga, do CrossFit, paddleboard.

Over the years, I spent thousands of dollars on orthotics and inserts, that I put in my shoes to try to make my feet feel better, to make it more comfortable for me to walk and run, take stress off my ankles, my knees, my hips, and my back. Did they work? Let's find out. Welcome to The MOVEMENT Movement podcast, the podcast where you really want to know the truth about how to have a happy, healthy, strong body and to let your body do what it likes to do best, and that is move.

They hide the fact that they know it's bad for you. They even hide information that other people create about the fact that their product is bad for you, and what's actually good for you. They make a product that is consistently and reliably creating health problems, and yet they just keep making it over and over and over and over. Convincing us that it's actually good for you.
