Working out barefoot?

Ideabaker

For yoga and running/jumping on my rebounder, I go barefoot. Better grip, and I feel more centred that way. For any machines or outdoor exercise, it's shoes... surf shoes for the beach, trainers for exercise equipment.

For weight lifting, I usually wear shoes (I think my bare feet might slip and don't want to 'throw anything out').

Barefoot lifter here because of weak arches too.

The funny thing was the foot doctor prescribed me freaking custom ortho arch support, lol. A band aid that just worsens the problem over time.

Thank you for the knowledge internet! Best invention, maybe ever.
