I don't have primate toes. Voluntarily, I can move my toes (especially the big toe on each foot) up or down only a few millimeters. Involuntarily, only a few millimeters more.
This has seldom been a problem, except that now that I have discovered kettlebells and am learning the Simple & Sinister program, I have a hard time doing Get-Ups from the lunge position to the standing position because of the tremendous forces my 250-lb frame puts on my 53-year-old big toe (it hurts).
What can I do to make my toes more flexible? Am I stuck with un-bendy toes or is there hope for me?
(By the way, I found this forum just today and am looking forward to learning from it. Thanks.)
