“…In the present study, and according to the results of these two investigations [20,21], no significant differences in several spatio-temporal parameters under three different conditions of foot orthoses as well as in the interaction between foot orthosis and running time were No differences were observed in the interaction between foot orthosis condition and time point (P > 0.05).…”

“…Currently, there is little information on the effectiveness of foot orthoses during an intense run. Only the studies of Lucas-Cuevas et al [20,21] analysed some spatio-temporal parameters in a continuous running protocol, with three different foot orthosis conditions (similar to those used in the present work), but only at the beginning and at the end of the run, without looking at their behaviour throughout the run.…”

“…In this sense, it would be interesting to investigate the effect of foot orthoses in a prolonged race, which should offer a more real vision of the recreational runners' usual practice [19]. Two previous studies of our research group [20,21] observed that foot orthoses have an effect on spatio-temporal, shock and plantar loading parameters after a prolonged run. The modification of those parameters could be associated with changes in kinematic parameters such as knee flexion and foot eversion [7,22], which are related with injury incidence [23], and justifies its investigation.…”

Foot orthoses are one of the most used strategies by healthy runners in injury prevention and performance improvement. However, their effect on running kinematics throughout an intense prolonged run in this population is unknown. Moreover, there is some controversy regarding the use of custom-made versus prefabricated foot orthoses. This study analysed the effect of different foot orthoses (custom-made, prefabricated and a control condition) on spatio-temporal and angular (knee flexion and foot eversion) kinematic parameters and their behaviour during an intense prolonged run. Twenty-four recreational runners performed three similar tests that consisted of running 20 min on a treadmill at 80% of their maximal aerobic speed, each one with a different foot orthosis condition. Contact and flight time, and stride length and stride rate were measured every 5 min by an optical measurement photoelectric cell system. Knee flexion and foot eversion kinematic parameters were measured by two high-speed cameras. No significant differences were found between the different foot orthoses in any of the time points studied and between the interaction of foot orthosis and behaviour over time, in any of the variables studied (P > 0.05). The use of custom-made and prefabricated foot orthoses during an intense prolonged run does not produce changes in spatio-temporal and kinematic parameters in healthy runners. These results suggest that a healthy runner maintains its ideal movement pattern throughout a 20 minute prolonged run, regardless the type of foot orthosis used.

“…The repetitive and accumulative stress produced by these impacts may overload the musculoskeletal system and lead to overuse injuries [29]. Different strategies have been suggested to reduce the impact loading during running including minimal footwear [44], foot orthoses [30], and graduated compressive garments [26]. In this sense, graduated compressive stockings (GCS) are widely used in the sporting field to attempt to influence some aspects associated with overuse injuries and improvement of performance and recovery [8].…”

Excessive and prolonged exposure to impact acceleration during running is associated with increased injury rate. Acute use of compressive garments has been speculated to improve attenuation. However, it is unknown how longer interventions of compressive garments influence attenuation in running. 40 runners trained with compressive and placebo stockings for 3 weeks. Perception of comfort, stride parameters (rate, length) and impact acceleration (head and tibial peak acceleration, magnitude, acceleration rate and attenuation) were measured every 5 min during a fatigue run (30 min at 80% of the individual's maximal aerobic speed). Compressive stockings reduced tibial peak acceleration and magnitude compared to placebo stockings at every minute (p<0.05) except for the initial measurement (p>0.05). Moreover, compressive stockings led to a lower rate of increase in tibial peak acceleration (14%, p<0.005) and magnitude (16%, p<0.001) as a result of the development of fatigue compared to placebo stockings (24% and 26% increase, p=0.014 and p=0.003, respectively). Similar perception of comfort was reported for both garments. Training with compressive stockings for 3 weeks reduced impact acceleration and the rate of increase in acceleration compared to placebo stockings. These findings suggest that compressive stockings may play a protective role by reducing impact accelerations during running.

“…Mean peak pressure was calculated as a dependent variable and it was defined as the average value of the maximum pressure from each step recorded over the foot region analyzed (Lucas-Cuevas et al, 2014). Plantar pressure was recorded at 750 Hz in the right foot.…”

High plantar pressure has been associated with increased risk of injury. The characteristics of each physical activity determine the load on the lower limbs. The influence of Nordic Walking (NW) technique on plantar pressure is still unknown. The aim of this study was to analyze the differences between plantar pressure during NW with the Diagonal technique (DT) versus Alpha technique (AT) and compare them with the pressure obtained during normal walking (W). The normality and sphericity of the plantar pressure data were checked before performing a two-way repeated measures ANOVA in order to find differences between speeds (preferred, fast) and the gait (NW, W) as within-subject factors. Then, a t-test for independent measures was used to identify the specific differences between NW techniques. The strength of the differences was calculated by means of the effect size (ES). The results demonstrated that during NW with AT at preferred speed the pressure was lower under the Calcaneus, Lateral Metatarsal and Toes compared to the DT group (p = 0.046, ES = 1.49; p = 0.015, ES = 1.44; p = 0.040, ES = 1.20, respectively). No differences were found at the fast speed (p > 0.05). Besides the increase in walking speed during NW (p < 0.01), both technique groups showed lower pressure during NW compared to W under the Hallux and Central Metatarsal heads (F = 58.321, p = 0.000, ES = 2.449; F = 41.917, p = 0.012, ES = 1.365, respectively). As a practical conclusion, the AT technique may be the most effective of the NW techniques at reducing plantar pressure while allowing NW practitioners to achieve the physiological benefits of NW.
