Will MBT Footwear Make Your Walking More Effective?

MBT Footwear

Even though the MBT footwear has been out there for fifteen years by now, it's only the last couple of years that it has become a popular training footwear.

So, what is really a MBT footwear about? Can it strengthen your stomach muscles, eliminate cellulites, and even help control diabetes, like they claim it can?

Many researches have been done on the footwear and it sure seem like the medical benefits of MBT footwear are proven. It's used as a recovering device among physicians, always used for rehab by athletes suffering from muscle traumas. When walking with the MBT footwear, you use your body in a way that you don't use when walking in regular shoes, so because of that, your body will get more toned if you use them on a daily basis.

Invented by the engineer Karl Muller, who himself suffered from severe back pain for many years, the MBT footwear makes your foot make the same movement it would when walking on a soft surface, like sand or grass.

Walking on those soft surfaces you would use the whole foot from front to back, and this makes you take a natural pose, and the back muscles gets activated, to support the body. You will strengthen the lower leg muscles, stomach muscles, and at the same time take pressure off the knees.

When trying them on for the first time, it does feel a bit unsteady, until you get used walking with them. Before walking long distances with them, try used to them bit by bit, because you can get quite sore muscles if you don't take it a bit easy at first.

You will walk more upright, it stretches your body, improving your posture. That's very beneficial for those with back and neck pain.
