The thing that sold me on forefoot running in minimalist shoes was reading Born to Run by Christopher McDougall. He discussed in detail the running […]
The forefoot running style adopted by our barefoot ancestors kept them from injury, and how is heel striking working out for us?
Foot proprioception plays a critical role in the sensory processes important for regulating safer landing behaviors during running and walking.
Research over the past 30 years has shown that the cause of running-related injuries is multifactorial. Training volume, muscle strength imbalances, and biomechanical impairments are […]
When it comes to running injury free, it is not necessarily about barefoot vs shoes, rather it’s about heel strike vs forefoot strike.
