Foot muscle strengthening
"A specific training program emphasizing the neuromuscular recruitment of the plantar intrinsic foot muscles. This will be colloquially referred to as the Foot Core Strengthening Program. The exercises are: short foot exercise, toe spread out, first toe extension, second to fifth toe extension. Simultaneously, neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) will be provided, as 77% of healthy active people struggle performing contractions of the foot muscles."
