12:3:30. No, it's not lunchtime quite yet, but it is time to get moving. The 12:3:30 training technique is all treadmill, and the exercise explains itself: set up your treadmill on a 12 incline, at 3 speed, for 30 minutes. This might be enough to help you melt fat (and keep your ankle joints protected), but there's way more where that came from: https://tinyurl.com/54dp7muh

So you've just started running, but you've hit a wall. The front of your legs are screaming a mile in, and you curse out your shins for stunting your progress. But maybe we shouldn't put the entire blame on the the legs. Your shins are more connected to your feet than you think, which means that pain might be more a foot issue than not: https://tinyurl.com/3zsk6p45

Good ole wear and tear arthritis is a common phenomenon we at DPMS see regularly. But what if you didn't spend your 20s competing as an athlete, or working a tough blue collar job? Even if you didn't go hard on your body early in life does not mean you'll avoid arthritis in your 40s. In fact, there are multiple forms of arthritis that anyone can get, at any stage of life: https://tinyurl.com/y582hyax

You've heard of plantar fasciitis, ankle sprains, arthritis, and all the ways life comes at our feet. But could it be our own shoes betraying us? In our expert opinion, it's very possible!
