@sugar_puppy006: I just started working in ODP at Walmart and I need recommendations on how to keep leg/foot pain down. I have good shoes (Brooks) so that's covered, but anything else that you found helpful?#walmart #odp #employee #help

You honestly just gotta get used to it. It will eventually stop, but there is a terrible transition period.

Inserts for your shoes and a knee brace for me. The floors suck in all our stores and it has been a life saver to prep just a bit beforehand. My right knee gives me issues and I have crappt arches. Acknowledge what you need, do a little prep. You got this. :)

You can buy the most expensive shoes in the world and you'll still be in pain. Give yourself a week or two before fully investing in things.

i’ve been there for almost 5 years, nothing prepares you for the amount of time you work and how much. especially during the holidays, you’ll feel it more than ever

Trainer here, this is what I tell my newbies: Some discomfort is expected if you are not used to this type of work or being on your feet all day, but you can minimize it. Start with cushion sole socks, or compression socks, with good insoles on thick soled, properly fitted running shoes. Stick to the same type of shoe once you find one that fits properly, & replace them every 3-4 months, or sooner. I found Avias Elevate to be affordable, good shoes. (I wear out more expensive shoes just as fast, but I am reluctant or unable to buy new, so I get less expensive shoes & I replace more often.) Don’t skip out on insoles!!! When it’s cooler I sometimes wear 2 pair of socks for extra cushion. Stretch!!! We don’t emphasize that enough. You are walking, not running, so not as many muscles are used. You need to target less used muscles. If you don’t do a lot of squatting then you need to do some squats & lunges. Just because you walk miles at work does not mean you can skip workouts. Do not underestimate the power of an epson salt soak. I take magnesium, calcium, vit D, and potassium to help manage muscle pain. You should adjust in a few weeks but if pain increases or you can’t find anything to improve, see your doc or a podiatrist.

Get your potassium levels up (aka Bananas & potatoes mainly) helps your leg muscles stay calm. Compression socks, I got some cute print muk luk brand ones from Walmart. Good shoes, elevate legs and rest. Proper stretching, massage muscles in problem area.

good socks, insoles if you have room in your shoes, and Epsom salt soaks when you can. with OPD being all walking and Walmart being all concrete, it's hard to avoid

Compression socks helped me. I also got some Brooks like you mentioned. Try to sit down when you’re able to that was my downfall, never taking breaks

Compression will change your life. I worked 13-14 hours shifts with them and have no leg aches or feet aches anymore. Start with the 8-10mmg (compression amount) and work your way up. Walmart sells the Mukluk brand in the 8-10. Make sure you get the right size for your leg and not just shoe size or you'll get terrible pitting marks on your leg.

If you start getting leg cramps (mine usually happen at night while resting but frequency directly relates to how much I’m on my feet) try taking magnesium and drinking more water. Also, when they’re happening - if you can’t step it out, try drinking pickle juice or anything else pickled. That tends to help me relieve it in the moment.

icy hot. and icy hot foot pads. put It on your feet and it feels soooo good. put on the pads on your feet, put some socks on, they'll move around a bit, but it feels so good after about 15-20 minutes.

Cycle your shoes. Have 2 pairs you alternate between so yesterday's pair can recover. Have your legs elevated on break

Brooks but add cushion insoles…. Compression socks and stretching throughout the day. Also if you can try alternating shoes - wear a different pair every other day or so.
