subject: 5 Great Benefits Of Mbt Footwear [print this page] You have probably heard of them, and maybe you have seen them. They are called the anti-shoe, also known as MBT footwear, which is short for Masai Barefoot Technology. It is a a brand of walking shoes created for an overall healthy body. The secret component is the specially designed sole that has a rocker type motion. It's awkward to walk in them at first, but you quickly become accustomed to them. They are mostly known for their back pain and posture benefits, but there are numerous other benefits that I'll outline in this article.
MBT footwear are known across the globe for the weight loss benefit with the extra calorie burn one receives while walking, but it also includes the following benefits:
1. Studies have shown that they have been proven to improve the posture and gait.
2. MBT footwear help tone muscles by increasing the amount of muscle activity. Regions like the buttock, legs and thighs benefit from the increased challenge on those muscle groups.
3. This footwear increases oxygen intake.
4. The abdominal muscles get a workout when wearing these shoes with the increased amount of muscle engagement.
5. The anti-shoe has been shown in research to reduce stress on the hip and knee joints.
The benefits of the anti-shoe are not only present when walking. Even when standing you can enjoy the benefits of MBT footwear such as increased muscle activity in the back, buttock, rear thigh, abdominal and lower limb muscles.
So there you have it, many great benefits of the MBT footwear. I highly recommend taking a look at the Masai Barefoot Technology because I think you will be amazed with what the design and features have to offer.
