What is MBT?
Masai Barefoot Technology or MBT is not just a shoe in the ordinary sense-it is a revolutionary fitness aid from SwissMasai. This product will not only change the way you use your muscles, but will improve the use of your joints and spine. The uniquely designed sole, combined with correct training, achieves a more active and healthy posture and walk.
What are the benefits?
Strengthens & tones muscles in the feet, legs, buttocks, stomach and back
Increases muscle activity & circulation which may help reduce cellulite and varicose veins
Relieves muscular tension, back and joint problems
Leads to a relaxed upright posture and gait
Increased input-response makes it easier for the musculature to react adequately. After ground contact there is a rolling movement, starting from a negative heel position (1). This creates a pre-stretch of the calf muscles. The straightening of the body, the balancing on the mid-foot (2) and the pull-through of the step to the back (3) initiates a rotation, which follows through the whole body. This results in an active and natural posture and gait.
