Even before its release, Greta Gerwig directed ‘Barbie’ has become a mass phenomenon. Trending for many weeks now, Margot Robbie is reveling in the buzz generated by the movie. Now the trailer has generated a viral scene that is making fans gaga over an often unnoticed body part-the humble feet.

The iconic scene from the movie shows Margot Robbie removing her high heels and confidently trudging forward. Sounds simple enough! Her feet moved ahead as if still wearing the pink pumps with her heels raised upwards and her toes perfectly arched. Thus, Robbie, with all her charm, tiptoed into fans’ hearts. A celebrity trainer has now come forward with exercises that will help get picture-perfect doll-like feet.

Feet are having a moment, inspired by the ‘Barbie’, movie. Even the director, Greta Gerwig, thought that the Suicide Squad actor had the “nicest feet”. So much so that Gerwig refused to use computer-generated imagery (CGI) for the viral scene. The decision turned out to be a major hit among fans, with many finding Margot Robbie’s feet ‘pretty’. A personal trainer, Matt Roberts, who has trained Adele as well, has revealed the perfect feet workout in an interview with the Daily Mail.

 

Trainer to Adele and Naomi Campbell, Roberts makes a startling confession. He said that wearing shoes can make feet “lazy”. He added, “We need to stimulate the muscles in the foot arch to ensure that they don’t weaken and collapse, as wearing shoes provides easy support and assistance.” Instead, he suggests not wearing any shoes inside the house to strengthen the arch muscles.

He also revealed some crunching exercises. Roberts said, “Imagine if you had your hands flat on a surface and you crunched your hands in by contracting at your palms. It is the same but by using the soles of your feet.”
