This study assessed kinematic differences between different foot strike patterns and their
relationship with peak vertical instantaneous loading rate (VILR) of the ground reaction force …

Background Running participation continues to increase. The ideal strike pattern during
running is a controversial topic. Many coaches and therapists promote non-rearfoot strike …

Background An estimated 56% of recreational runners sustain a running-related injury
related to the high impact forces in running. Increasing step frequency (cadence) while …

Despite the number of studies examining factors associated with overuse running injury,
little is known about why an individual gets injured on a particular side of the body …

Materials and Methods: A database retrieval and reference search were carried out with
PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect. In the final review, 10 papers were …

Background: Some frontal plane and transverse plane variables have been associated with
running injury, but it is not known if they differ with foot strike style or as stride length is …

Background Vertical ground reaction force (VGRF) parameters have been implicated as a
cause of several running-related injuries. However, no systematic review has examined this …

Background: Shoe cushioning is expected to protect runners against repetitive loading of the
musculoskeletal system and therefore running-related injuries. Also, it is a common belief …

Background Running-related injury (RRI) is highly prevalent among recreational runners
and is a key barrier to participation. Atypical lower limb alignment and mechanical function …

Injury rates among runners are high, with the knee injured most frequently. The interaction of
running experience and running mechanics is not well understood but may be important for …
