Participanti don’t trust podiatrists at all. I got into a big argument with a podiatrist I used to go to high school with about walking barefoot about 5 years ago. I was way ahead of the curve on the whole barefoot running thing (the magic of the internet for allowing weirdos to connect with other weirdos). this podiatrist dude told me I was out of my mind, that i was going to ruin my feet and that the podiatry community was in complete agreement that barefoot was bad.
Therefore, i am very suspicious of podiatrists. they need to speak out more strongly against women’s shoes rather than just standing by and making money off of corns and bunions, caused entirely by fashion, to have some credibility with me. i guess they also do good by keeping an eye on diabetics’ feet to make sure they’re not getting rotted. But I feel podiatrists in general are part of some industrial-footwear complex designed to hurt us; kind of like footbinding supervisors in ancient china.
I feel pretty strongly about barefootedness,and for many years had my kids go barefoot in the neighborhood. i believe shoes are one of the largest problems in modern society. i hate tom’s shoes for shoeing the unshoed. i hate shoes.
is it really a foot problem or is it something body related?
Maybe a sports medicine doctor?
hope Im not offending anyone by railing against the podiatric medical community.
if your feet feel better when you get home and take off your shoes, then something is very very wrong.

ParticipantAre mexijews white?
They identify as “golden brown.”. Not sure if that’s a choice on the ethnic survey. They should have a blank for actual color.
They actually are golden brown.
They call me pasty. I don’t identify as pasty though.

Participanti’ve been thinking about this issue. I’m one who is generally against belief in the power of positive thinking, against affirmations, and motivational speakers and generally opposed to feeling like I am responsible alone for my success. I tend to agree with the proposition that our success is determined by many factors outside ourselves.
But….
I have been reading a lot of weightlifting/strength books and articles and i have been lifting a lot and think about how to get stronger a lot. in fact, I think about it and read about it and work on it every day. Strength trainers believe that you are 100% responsible for your outcome. genetics matter, of course, but what you make of yourself is 100% on you.
there is a very large mental component to lifting heavy weights. This belief is useful, arguably even necessary.
in fact, the importance of the metal attitude might be larger, or maybe just inseparable, from the physical component.
and your results are going to be almost entirely dependent on your mental attitude.
so i am rethinking my overall attitude on being self-made.
I am thinking, in terms of strength training, that you pretty much make yourself what you are. good advice, good training help, but basically it all comes down to you and your effort and your attitude and how much you want it. and having some good food available, and a place to sleep.
This last three weeks has been an amazing three weeks for me in terms of my drive and gains and focus and confidence.
And it’s making me wonder if maybe I wasn’t wrong about my original position regarding how much we control our destinies in other areas. I have literally been believing myself stronger. at least that’s how it feels.
250 is getting very close. p.s i deadlifted 300 lbs tonight. that’s not squatting but it’s still heavy. my kids witnessed it and said i turned beet red. i need more weights, since i only have 300 lbs. in terms of extremely macho sentences, i would say, “i need more weights” ranks among the most macho.
