This study really questions the role of resistance training in PF management and puts @MichaelRathleff 's old study in perspective (https://t.co/H6aSu3NEvD). This underlines the need to compare resistance exercises to wait/see/minimal care. https://t.co/NOM1HHrMfu

The discussions exemplify high interest and active engagement, with many posts referencing specific exercise techniques like calf raises and debates about resistance training’s role, supported by specialized language and personal anecdotes. Words such as 'question,' 'support,' and 'works' highlight a critical yet supportive tone that emphasizes the study's practical significance and encourages further research.
Most discussions acknowledge and support the positive findings of the article regarding high-load strength training for plantar fasciitis, with some expressing curiosity and further questioning.
The discussions show high engagement with the topic, frequently mentioning specific exercises and implications, indicating strong interest in the study's practical applications.
Participants reference their personal experiences, clinical practices, and the study's details, demonstrating thoughtful engagement beyond surface-level mentions.
While the discourse reflects recognition of the study's relevance, it remains largely within professional or community circles, indicating moderate perceived impact.
Abstract in brief
- The study compared the effectiveness of high-load strength training versus plantar-specific stretching combined with shoe inserts for treating plantar fasciitis, finding that the strength training led to better foot function after 3 months.
- The high-load strength training involved unilateral heel raises with a towel under the toes, performed every second day, and resulted in a 29-point lower score on the foot function index (FFI) at 3 months compared to stretching.
- While the benefits of strength training were evident at 3 months, there were no significant differences between the groups at 6 and 12 months, suggesting early improvements with strength training, but similar long-term outcomes.]

There's no surprises here, it's a calf raise. https://t.co/LQ8uXZflU9 But Brandon, I was already doing that! You were, so what can we do differently to finally feel better?

@suzy_speirs @keithgraham @physiopedia @MichaelRathleff Was thinking of this one, although no difference was found between stretch & strength grps at 12/12, there were superior outcomes after 3/12. Also studies coming out about IFM strength. Too much heterogeneity in methods atm though. More research needed
High load strength training helps plantar fasciitis! So why did you only get prescribed passive stretches ?! https://t.co/LXpKAtcOL4 #footpain #exercisefoot #feetstrong #stronglegs #paininfoot #heelpain #cambridgefoothealth #plantarfasciitis #cambridgefoottherapy
This is why we never just provide passive foot stretches, or any passive stretches alone for any condition. https://t.co/LXpKAtcOL4 #stretching #plantar #plantarpain #footpain #footpaintreatment
@lizbayleyphysio It's been a while, but if I remember correctly I startet pretty early with the @MichaelRathleff protocol. I recovered fully, a bit of a mental barrier because of a setback along the way, but I did my still-standing PB on 800m in 2018. https://t.co/iB60IsrV8d

The Rathleff " high load strengthening exercise " used by all 3 groups in the Rasenberg study is not a plantar intrinsic strengthening exercise. It merely stretches them if that . https://t.co/5EsAzepalr

@DrChrisBarton @zadro_josh @Sinead_Holden @simonthephysio @DrPeteMalliaras Surely you can do a neat and well-conducted trial testing the efficacy of a certain type of exercise (or combination) with a controlled environment that will allow you to quantify what exactly was done, progressions etc etc. An example I like is this trial https://t.co/7edp3hLVzq
