Now can I deload the amount of force and train the speed? Once I've got the speed going in the parts, now I just get to become an athlete and do body weight and beyond.

And so that's where you see these really high level athletes, even at early ages, their trainers know how to build that paradigm up and bridge it across to where you don't get any injuries along the way, but you get a really springy force resistant person. So many of us, like we touched on initially, don't train pogos. We don't train plyometrics.

If you go out to the local men's or women's soccer league, how many people there over 40? Not very many. Now there's a lot of reasons why that is, but we're not playing games and we're not reacting to stuff. And so we need to make the gym a safe space where we can recreate these things and essentially test out these movements. So I don't lose it.

So with you, without getting your foot out, you have a very mobile foot. Your swimming background, swimmers have really great mobile feet. Show me a soccer player who had their foot strapped in cleats for 10, 20 years versus a swimmer. Very different setups. So it really speaks to how tissues adapt over time. So your feet have a ton of motion in them. They are not restricted.

You also do a lot of barefoot work in the gym, which is helpful for you. Your feet are actually pretty strong too. If we test your big toe and your smaller toes, you don't test outside the normal limits for strength requirements, but your biggest gap is that multi-positional stiffness and that ability to create force absorption through your tissues.

And you're actually set up for that because you can move so much. You don't find those end ranges, either the bony end ranges or those tendons can't grab because there's so much play in that pattern. So what you accidentally do all the time is you'll go on a ruck or you'll go on a hunt where you're off road and you're getting all these angles.

You'll slowly flare up a tendon and tendons are notorious for not hurting.

I'm just glad your feet not at the other end. So because your feet are so mobile. Tendons are notorious for, they don't really hurt at the time, but they hurt like crazy the next morning. And what you always routinely say, which is really common if you're plantar fasciitis or patellar tendonitis is when I first get up, it's really stiff and creaky and sore and hurts.

And what you always routinely say, which is really common if you're plantar fasciitis or patellar tendonitis is when I first get up, it's really stiff and creaky and sore and hurts.

And that's because tendons love blood flow. They love movement and they love motion. And so all those chemicals that come with inflammation, if we're just sitting around or sleeping, that's the opportunity to get stiff and really sore and achy. With that kind of symptom pattern, you're not really lost on what it is because that's classic tendon. You can walk, we can load it. There's no failure.

So we're not worried about a muscular strain or any other damage, but that tendon gets really hot and spicy, especially in the mornings, if you're not creating that stiffness.
