Forefoot Running Prevents the Impact-Related Injuries Caused by Heel Strike Running

When it comes to preventing impact-related injuries, research shows that forefoot running has an impressive record of producing better results than heel strike running. For instance, forefoot running naturally projects only a very narrow set of impact forces on the body and it also helps shape safer mechanics, such as reduced stride length and increased cadence which are impact-protective variables linked to better outcomes in preventing impact-related injuries, such as long bone stress injuries.
