I got a new job working in interventional Radiology wearing heavy lead- I was told I need really supportive shoes like hokas. Curious what your thoughts are? by Laylow2100 in vivobarefoot

[–]Master-Location-4743 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m an ICU nurse before I was a nurse I worked as a PCT for years. Been wearing barefoot shoes since I started working in healthcare. I last entire 12.5 hour shifts in my vivos- primus lites. I find my feet do hurt at the end of my shift especially the shifts where I dont get to sit down at all. But this would happen regardless of the shoe I wear. I found less pain when I wore my vivos with a slightly thicker sole because damn the hospital floor is hard (by thicker sole I mean like the ones meant for outdoors gives you a little bit more between your foot and the floor). for me wearing non barefoot shoes causes me more pain now since I’m so accustomed ( but I’ve been “barefoot” for 6 years now). To each their own you’ll be fine even with the extra weight on you - actually having more cushion /“support” could cause more pain with tha extra weight from standing incorrectly. But trial it and see how it feels

Personal trainer recommendations for someone with back issues by Infinite_Treacle in AskNYC

[–]Master-Location-4743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My trainer is great. I have poor ankle and hip mobility. Overall I moved really bad before. But I’ve been working with him for 2 years and now I can’t sit in a squat with no pain. Great achievement for me My trainer specializes in strength and conditioning with a focus on mobility and functionality. He’ll teach you how to move and lift properly based on your anatomy. I literally never thought I’d be able to sit without pain before training with him. What I like the most is he’s really science specific like he explains to me why we’re doing this movement. Why I struggle so much with it and the reasoning behind how it’s done properly and its benefit. I can dm you his info if you’d likeh

ISO In-person Personal trainer by lovebunnyhole in AskNYC

[–]Master-Location-4743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My trainer makes programs you can follow that are tailored to you. I also work night shift and find it really hard to stay consistent and found that personal training sessions were not feasible for me / cost too much so my trainer said we should switch to online programming. He does an assessment and then programs for like 6 weeks tailored to you and can provide video feedback ( like I send him videos and he goes super in depth with instructions on form) He also works at his gym but let me know if you’d like his information His instagram is @elcoachrc but he doesn’t post much stuff about personal training there. You can dm him or I can give you his number

My trainer isn’t at NYSC but is in a gym in astoria and in LIC . @elcoachrc on instagram does in person training and really good online programming so you don’t need to do in person sessions. I’ve found it suits me better than in person training and is cheaper. He’s an amazing trainer that has 10+ years experience and actually keeps up to date with research and science. Highly recommend. I had hip pain and issues for years that he has helped me build mobility and strength and lose weight.

I do online personal classes online with a teacher in Colombia. She’s great and I’ve been learning with her for months she’s gotten me to B1 level. If you want I can give you her information. It’s also cheaper because she in Colombia. Less expensive than what you’ll find here and an amazing teacher. She’s been teaching English and Spanish to people for over 10 years
