I'm still growning a new big-toenail from way back at IM Coeur d'Alene. I bought Trev a nice pair of blue ones so he can feel manly. Of the two of us, Trevor probably does have the prettier feet!

Haha. The goal behind that little exercise is try and make an arch from toe to heel. With the spreaders in place you're helping to stretch and strengthen all the little tendons and fascia within your feet. A foot injury is probably one of the more frustrating injuries to have because it seems so ridiculous. If you get a bad one, though, its difficult to do any form of training at all. Plantar Fasciatis is probably the most common, we've been thankful to avoid that issue. Problems with the big toes are something we both experience. These little exercises help keep all that a thing of the past. As for an actual picture!!! We'll keep that in mind the next time toe spreaders and a camera are in close contact.

I am not sure I understand the concept. ;-) I would like to see a photo of Trevor wearing a pair of toe spreaders please. I am not sure I understand the concept.
