Abstract:
A weighted orthotic insole placed in a standard shoe and used in a way to facilitate weight loss, strengthen several body muscles and provide cardiovascular conditioning. In addition to being removable, the orthotic insole is designed to maintain the support and comfort provided by the shoe in which it is used. In a preferred embodiment, the orthotic insole contains a first concentration of weight proximal to the heel portion of the shoe and a second, lighter concentration of weight proximal to the midsole portion of the shoe.
