I was in New York City for a story Nike Free 5.0 V4 Herren Kaufen on the New Jersey-New York Track Club and while riding the subway back from the Armory someone asked me about my shoes. A young guy. Early 20s. Probably not a runner. But he was a sneaker-head, and he saw that I was wearing a pair of the old Nike Daybreaks¡ªso sick, if you¡¯ve ever seen them, purple and orange (photo here). Like most guys that collect sneakers, I¡¯d gotten them off eBay or somewhere else online. Young guys like me often do wear old (-looking) shoes, and if you don¡¯t believe that, you must be a runner.

Question: Why do you wear pronation control shoes? Answer: Because someone at a shoe store told you that you need them, and they were told that you need them by a shoe company rep. The above Q&A basically describes my feelings on the topic of overpronation. You might think that you wear such shoes because you need support for your ¡°excessive¡± foot movement to prevent injury, but the reality is there is scant evidence at best that these shoes accomplish this goal, or that excessive pronation is even strongly linked to increased injury risk.

Unfortunately, the pronation control paradigm has come to dominate the world of shoe fitting, and judging by the number of people asking for shoe advice on online forums who start by claimin Posted Image g they are an¡°overpronator,¡± it¡¯s not a topic that seems to be dying off as rapidly as it should.

And I love and fully agree with the conclusion regarding what to do with the term ¡°overpronation¡±:Hopefully it is now clear that this is a term which contributes nothing to our understanding ¨C it is not definable, not reliable or valid, not diagnostic, its relationship to injury is not fully understood, and it does not dictate what the most appropriate management plan may be. It should not be replaced, it should be removed.

I haven¡¯t been able to find either of these studies published in full in a peer reviewed scientific journal, so they need to be taken for what they are as conference abstracts. However, they do suggest that a period of training in Nike Frees can increase muscle size and strength when compared to training in a more conventional shoe, at least for some muscles. What I find particularly compelling is that the subjects weren¡¯t even necessarily running in the shoes very much ¨C aerobics, skipping, side stepping, etc. were also included in the training plan. If doing these types of things can increase toe flexion strength, foot plantar flexion strength, foot dorsiflexion strength, and so on, one wonders what would happen if a more intensive running program were employed? Furthermore, the Nike Free isn¡¯t even all that minimal of a shoe ¨C it¡¯s pretty cushy and retains a fairly sizable heel lift. I¡¯d love to see a similar study that compares a group of runners using traditional shoes to a group that transitions from traditional shoes to something like the Vibram Fivefingers for six months.

Blaise DuboisAs I indicated in my previous post, I spent the past weekend in Shepherdstown, WV attending a three-day course called ¡°New Trends in the Prevention of Running Injuries.¡± The course is taught primarily by Blaise Dubois (see photo at left), a Canadian physiotherapist from Quebec City, with assistance from Sean Cannon, a physiotherapist and international level sprint canoe racer. I didn¡¯t get a chance to look through course materials prior to arriving, and as such had little idea of what to expect. However Nike Free Run 2 Online Kaufen , I figured that any knowledge I could glean about running injuries would be helpful, particularly since I am once again teaching Exercise Physiology this semester at my college. What I left with was near complete validation of just about everything I believe in with regard to running injury prevention and running footwear. I can¡¯t tell you how good it feels to be in a room with a diverse group of forty-some people, including health care professionals, academics, shoe designers, writers, athletes, and form coaches who all largely agree that ou Nike Free Run 3 Kaufen G¨¹nstig r current approach to running form and footwear is deeply flawed.
