stoic is a gym for your feet
Upgrade your Stoic Base Kit with additional Natural River Rock and Forest Floor inserts. If you already have a stoic base kit with an additional river rock surface and a forest floor surface then you are in the right place.
Two hardness options:
- Natural - softer, a great way to start standing more actively.
- Warrior - harder, for those looking for a more intense standing experience (here).
You can also put these surfaces anywhere you want a GYM FOR YOUR FEET while you stand.
*These are the surfaces only. If you want the Stoic Base Kit click here.
The problem
For millions of years, our ancestors were barefoot. People had wide toes, solid arches, and extremely strong feet that could handle any obstacle nature provided. Unfortunately for us modern humans, wearing shoes our entire lives has basically been like putting our feet in a cast every day. Wearing shoes alters the structure and function of the foot resulting in a weakened appendage that is almost unrecognizable compared to the robust, anti-fragile feet of our ancestors.
Although standing desks have exploded in popularity and have a ton of health benefits, people are still wearing shoes all day and at worst standing on the smooth, hard floor or at best an unnaturally flat anti-fatigue mat. This is bad.
Barefoot is better.
When barefoot, the 26 bones, 30 joints and more than 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments are free to move. The movement builds strength, mobility, flexibility and range of motion making you a more robust human. Honor your DNA and stand on Stoic.
Before shoes, our ancestors were barefoot for 2 million years. Their daily lives were spent walking, running, squatting, kneeling and standing on highly varied, uneven terrain. People had wide toes, solid arches, and extremely strong feet that could handle any obstacle nature provided.
Not only do they have to carry us around all day, but they also get shoved unnaturally into shoes, boots, and other modern forms of footwear that may look sweet, but come at a cost. Massage improves circulation, stimulates muscles, reduces tension, and often eases pain.
Benefits:
- Strengthens muscles in your feet & legs
- Lets your toes spread naturally
- Builds stronger arches
- Improve balance and body awareness
- Increases range of motion in joints
- Stimulate your brain
- Improve the mind body connection
- Daily use may reduce inflammation caused by plantar fasciitis
