DeeGee, snow shoes would do it quite monotonously for some.

Yes Pesto, I can imagine how annoying it would be for you, er, your friend. :-)
If you do it "properly", good and hard like, you can even trip yourself up and come a right cropper. That happened to my "friend" yer know. :-) That bl**dy hurt! :-)

This is interesting. Know someone who kicks their left ankle when running or sometimes 'scuffs' the treadmill/ground with right foot. Left hip can also stiffen up after a long run. Wonders if the two together suggests weak glutes/imbalance on left.

Stander, depends what you mean by "dodgy". Also, squats can be adjusted. And it is something you build up to as strength improves. Start with fairly shallow ones and gradually go lower as you get stronger. Two legged also.

Shyfire, definitely sounds like it could be yes. Left glute stiffening because it's weak and gets over worked really easily. Right foot scuffing ground due to hip dropping. Could also mean that the lower leg and foot isn't being picked up enough though too...

I have a similar 'friend', but he kicks his lower left leg rather than his ankle, leading to his eczema flaring up...

Any fixes for him?

Only joking. Merry eczemas ;-)
