During standing, the foot bears the weight of the body with minimum muscle energy expenditure. The foot must also be both pliable and relatively rigid depending on various functional demands. This versatility allows the foot to absorb forces, accommodate to uneven surfaces, and serve as a structural lever to propel the body forward during walking and running.
