Forefoot running is the most effective approach for stopping the inflow of high impacts by aligning your entire body mechanics in a more functional manner as compared with heel strike running. After decades of research on impact mechanics, the science is in that the big reasons forefoot running is able to sustainably prevent impact from exceeding pain and injury-inducing levels is by directly improving shin, knee and even upper body posture angles at landing. These are the essential features of forefoot running that are all impaired by landing heel-first. Read more here!
