Working out in High Heels!
Replies

I always wondered the sense of having 100m dash races in heels... Thanks OP for explaining the logic behind these 'weird' races!0

A biomechanist breaks down the study and the problems with it.1. The greatest resting activity in the PF is, like the Chen study, higher with heels down, not heels up.
2. The maximal contraction (squeezing it hard) comes from 5° of plantar flexion (less than 1/2” of heel) not those ankle positions simulating 2 or 3″ heels.
The conclusion of the study: Ten degrees of dorsiflexion (opposite of heels, remember?) might be just as effective as the 15° reported by Chen, but more comfortable. Low heels – not high heels.
For example:

I was a tip-toe walker as a kid and I had to do physiotherapy when I was on the swim team to loosen up my calf muscles.0 -
I have a few choice words but I will get kicked off MFP. So....lalalalala, next.0

I'm just gonna go ahead and add this to my list of things I won't be doing.0

Good for you. I thought I was doomed to wet my pants after two kids, but I've been doing Katy's "Down There" video and am better than ever.0 -
I only wear heels to my burlesque class, and sometimes pole. I don't even wear them on nights out, or in my day-to-day life. They damage your feet over time and are just ridiculous inventions.
So if you do decide to do this, please post your fail video to YouTube for us? Thanks.0 -
My mom always wore heels. Now she always has to wear them. Her tendons shortened and now it hurts her to walk flat.
My mum is the same, she can't wear anything without at least an inch heel. This was ok when she was younger but now she is in her 70s with poor balance she is struggling to walk at all and would be so much better in flats.
Stick to working hard and don't use shortcuts that could give you a lasting injury.0 -
The pressure alone being pushed down on the toes is reason enough not to continually wear heels in the first place. And you want to squat in them?
OP is correlating people with great legs and butt to having got them while wearing heels. I'm betting that they do more than just wear heels for their workout.

I assume it's even harder when you have no muscle tone at all, like that model.Every time I look at that still from the deadlifting video makes me gag. Reminds me of this, but with more ouch.
I can barely walk in high heels on the reg, so I'm definitely not exercising in them.
Once, I did wear knee-highs boots (heeled, obviously) to a strip-aerobics class when I was 16. I was much braver - and dumber - back then.0 -
Saving to read this all later. I can't wait for the responses!0

Ummmm the only "working out" you should be doing in stiletto's is the type of "working out" that involves a pole and/or lap dance and your significant other.
Bad idea OP.

I don't condone this, but here is someone that works out in heels also................I think it looks ridiculous, but what do I know.

I'm going to start wearing my stilletos when I work out. I got the thought to do this so I started researching if it would be helpful! It stated not only does it help to tone every thing more, but it also strengthens the pelvic muscles! And that's a win win for every one! LOL Here are some of the exercises it suggested doing in heels.
"Do squats: Have you ever noticed how great Julissa Bermudez's butt looks? The Dominican TV Host has a rear that can easily compete with J.Lo's and she has her high heels to thank for that. She does squats regularly with her high heels on. Try wearing your highest stilettos the next time you attempt to do some squatting exercises, but start off doing less reps than usual. You might not be able to handle the intensity!
Lunges: If you're going to do lunges in heels, try a pair that features a lower, and thicker heel. You don't want to lose your balance and wind up falling. Try doing 2 to 3 sets of 15 to 20 reps. This is a great way to tone up your butt, quads, and inner thighs.
Dance: There's a reason why professional dancers tend to rehearse in their high heels. Not only do they need to get used to dancing in their tacones for the day of the performance, but I'm convinced it helps work out their legs more than usual. Seriously, have you ever seen a professional dancer with so-so looking legs? I didn't think so! The next time you decide to go dancing, whether at a club or around your living room, make sure to throw on those heels.
Plié: Here's another move that will definitely give your butt some lift. Start off standing with your feet wide apart (in heels of course) with your toes turned out and your arms at your sides. Now lower your body into a plié squat and while you go down, raise your arms in front of you, shoulder height with palms facing down. Hold the position for 3 seconds and then continue with 10 reps.
Warning: Your booty will hurt afterwards. Work out those calves: Strengthen those calf muscles by repeatedly going up a flight stairs with high heels on. You'll feel it almost instantly and the best part is you'll be working your thighs and your butt simultaneously. It might sound silly but it really works! "
I love this! I'm already trying it in a pair of 5" heels (they are the easiest pair for me to stand and walk in for long periods) and you can definitely feel the pull more!
But of course be careful! If you're not comfortable in heels try a smaller heel, wedges, or those sneaker heels!
WOW, this is just ridiculous... Using a 2x4 or plates under your heels is one thing, but squatting in heels is, well........ (insert huge rant filled with 4 letter words here)...............0 -

I'm going to start wearing my stilletos when I work out. I got the thought to do this so I started researching if it would be helpful! It stated not only does it help to tone every thing more, but it also strengthens the pelvic muscles! And that's a win win for every one! LOL Here are some of the exercises it suggested doing in heels.
"Do squats: Have you ever noticed how great Julissa Bermudez's butt looks? The Dominican TV Host has a rear that can easily compete with J.Lo's and she has her high heels to thank for that. She does squats regularly with her high heels on. Try wearing your highest stilettos the next time you attempt to do some squatting exercises, but start off doing less reps than usual. You might not be able to handle the intensity!
Lunges: If you're going to do lunges in heels, try a pair that features a lower, and thicker heel. You don't want to lose your balance and wind up falling. Try doing 2 to 3 sets of 15 to 20 reps. This is a great way to tone up your butt, quads, and inner thighs.
Dance: There's a reason why professional dancers tend to rehearse in their high heels. Not only do they need to get used to dancing in their tacones for the day of the performance, but I'm convinced it helps work out their legs more than usual. Seriously, have you ever seen a professional dancer with so-so looking legs? I didn't think so! The next time you decide to go dancing, whether at a club or around your living room, make sure to throw on those heels.
Plié: Here's another move that will definitely give your butt some lift. Start off standing with your feet wide apart (in heels of course) with your toes turned out and your arms at your sides. Now lower your body into a plié squat and while you go down, raise your arms in front of you, shoulder height with palms facing down. Hold the position for 3 seconds and then continue with 10 reps.
Warning: Your booty will hurt afterwards. Work out those calves: Strengthen those calf muscles by repeatedly going up a flight stairs with high heels on. You'll feel it almost instantly and the best part is you'll be working your thighs and your butt simultaneously. It might sound silly but it really works! "
I love this! I'm already trying it in a pair of 5" heels (they are the easiest pair for me to stand and walk in for long periods) and you can definitely feel the pull more!
But of course be careful! If you're not comfortable in heels try a smaller heel, wedges, or those sneaker heels!
Seriously? Just, no. Add some weights to your squats and lunges if needed, but please, don't destroy your ankles ... just, wow0 -

And knees. Isn't anybody thinking of the knees?0 -
I am on the no wagon and I really, really hope this was a joke.
And thanks for the chuckle at work!0 -
It will definitely help with your upper body strength and toning, cause once the heel breaks, or you simply lose your balance and twist your ankle, you will get lots of time to only train your upper body, that's if you even manage to hobble yourself to gym..0

Great Idea.
Only thing is, I think the heels would pop my yoga ball when I squat.
