Strengthening Those Toezies

Many people do not know this, but the human foot has 20 muscles. These muscle control all ranges of motion from, dorsiflexion, moving the foot upward, to plantar flexion, pointing the foot downward.  They also create abduction, turning the toes out, and adduction, turning the toes in; inversion, directing your inner foot upward, and eversion, directing the outer foot upward.

These little muscles help to propels us when we walk and stabilize us when we stand, we need them to be strong.  Here are some great exercise you can do even sitting down to ensure these tiny muscle stay strong and healthy
