vibram five fingers are based on the technology of our wonderful feet, which have 26 bones, 33 joints and more than 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments in each foot. These moving parts in our feet need to be worked to keep them healthy. Experts believe the shoes we wear are not only reshaping but weakening our foot and leg muscles, leaving them lazy, underdeveloped and more prone to injury. Add to this the fact that our walking environment has changed so much over the last 100 years - we have flattened everything from roads to pavements – and the result is lazy, under stimulated feet.\r\n\r\nFirst off,the fivefingers were a bit of a struggle to get on. Everyone’s feet are different, and my toes just didn’t want to spread apart enough to fit into all the toe holes. After a few days I figured out a method where I started with my small toes and worked my way towards my big toe. Ok, a bit of a learning curve for my toes, but no problem. They felt very slick on my feet, and weighed very little. I was impressed with the overall fit and they reminded my of Under Armour Compression Gear, which is a compliment.\r\n\r\nglutamine is the most abundant single amino acid in the blood and in the intracellular free amino acid pool (most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue). \r\n\r\nGlutamine concentrations fall remarkably after training within as little as 30 minutes, and remain low until complete recovery, up to as long as 5 - 7 days, resulting in decreases in strength, stamina and recovery.
