  Benefits of Bare Feet

  To condition the contact points of your feet, Hee-Il Cho advises you to go barefoot during your training sessions. When you wear shoes, your feet sweat, and that moisture keeps your skin soft. �You don�t develop calluses that way,� he says.

  People who live in hot climates tend to walk around barefoot most of the time, and that makes the skin on their dogs as tough as shoe leather. Such people are better kickers because their feet are harder and feel less pain, he says.
