The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Shorinji Kempo experience on toe grip strength, sole shape, and anterior-posterior foot pressure ratio. The participants were 39 healthy male university students (13 Shorinji Kempo athletes, 13 athletes (volleyball and handball athletes), and 13 non-athletes). All Shorinji Kempo athletes and athletes had more than three years of experience in each athletic event. Shorinji Kempo athletes had significantly lower rates and numbers of floating-toes than those of athletes and non-athletes. Toe grip strength, foot angle and anterior foot pressure ratio were significantly higher in Shorinji Kempo athletes than in non-athletes. It was inferred that Shorinji Kempo experience affects the toe grip strength, the foot shape (floating-toe and foot angle) and the anterior-posterior foot pressure ratio. Future studies, such as those using longitudinal data, are needed to further this research.
