Summary: I sit down for a conversation with Dr. Kenneth Vitale of the University of California San Diego Department of Orthopedic Surgery and Sports Medicine to elaborate on a talk he gave at the National Soccer Coaches Association of America Convention in January about "Minimalist Running Shoe Trends." We talk about the importance of strengthening your foot muscles and how you can do it while you are injured to work a complete recovery from the feet to your head. Below are links Dr. Vitale speaks about and a link to his personal information. These are just some samples of some videos: • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoEIW4Y8MEo • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_izMb3PPamI • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIWU2VV4n4o • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Hbh3p0nFYQ If you are interested in...
