Abstract

[Purpose] To clarify the effects on toe-grip strength of standing with toe and heel loading. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty-four feet of 12 healthy adults were the subjects of this study. Subjects’ toe-grip strength was measured before and after standing on a platform, which loaded the heel and toes, for 10, 30 and 60 s. The tasks were performed in a random order with more than a day between each task. [Results] Toe-grip strengths of both the dominant and non-dominant feet significantly increased after standing on the platform for 10 s, but no significant differences were found after standing durations of 30 and 60 s. [Conclusion] The results suggest that standing for 10 s with toe and heel loading is an exercise which immediately increases toe-grip strength.
