When I workout I workout hard. I have been doing Turbo Fire and it's killing my feet! I've tried wearing thicker socks and tried different shoes but my toes are really taking a beating from the workout because I put so much pressure. Is anyone else having the same problem and have you found a way to prevent it?

    I used to have problems with running and getting black toenails, even had one fall off. I ended up going up a half size in my workout/running shoes and have not had a problem since. Try for a shoe with a wider toe box as your toes really spread when you are doing high impact workouts.

    And you are a MACHINE with your workouts, so I know they are high impact!!

    Going up that half size felt weird to me at first, but I haven't had any problems at all since doing so.

    I had this problem when I started running. I ended up buying a bigger size shoe and now my toes are fine.

    Well, if two out of two people say you need a larger shoe size, there may be something to that. I suggest you go to a store that specializes in fittings for athletes. Out here, there is a store called "Second Sole" and they are really good about fittings for people like you.

    I am having problems with my feet as well. Maybe since everyone is saying a bigger shoe size thats what I will do.
