This is just out of interest on my part.
We all know that barefoot running has an effect on the muscles in the feet and can give you arches back again but what about the muscles in the legs.
It would be interesting to have people report on the ratio between the leg muscles measured midway around the upper leg ie the Quads/Hamstrings by the lower leg muscles.
It is said (in Dr Marks video) that barefoot running develops the correct running muscles.
It is too late for me to do the before ratio but the ratio now is 1.24, that is upper leg divided by lower leg. I know my calves have got bigger and the quads are not as big since barefoot running.
so I believe that my ratio would have been bigger before I started barefoot running. Mabye Dr Mark has some statistics?
