Outdated approach – Corrective shoes

natural running?

Running started to get complicated some 40 years ago when the “modern” running shoe was developed. Shoes progressively incorporated more cushioning and new cushioning technologies and the heel was raised more and more above the forefoot (called Heel to Toe Drop).

Natural Running is the way nature intended us to run, with quick reactive feet, landing on the midfoot, using gravity as a forward force. At Salming we would like to help you run naturally and injury free. We focus on running form and technique and design shoes that facilitate for you to run in a natural running style. Traditional footlanding analysis is over simplistic and an outdated approach. We believe a more holistic approach with a full body Running Analysis (Salming RunLAB™ Running Analysis powered by Qualisys) is more adequate. What happens at footlanding can normally derive from somewhere else and should be corrected at the source. If you were to start playing golf or tennis you would go to a golf or tennis pro to get lessons and tips to help you get a good swing or serve, however when it comes to running most people just assume they know how to run injury free, purely and efficiently. Rightfully so many people would, if they just took their traditional running shoes off and ran on a grass field or on the beach without shoes. Unfortunately, running under these circumstances is not the case for most people. Most people get into a traditional running shoe and start to run on man made materials such as asphalt and concrete, which could be a risky activity. In fact, research shows that 40-65% of all runners get injured at least once a year. If running is part of who we are and running is a natural motion for us human beings and we have been doing it for the past 2 million years – then why do so many runners get injured?

The raised heel had running technique implications. The runners started to strike the ground with their heel first. Heel striking hurts, consequently even more advanced cushioning technologies were needed to decrease the pain at heel strike impact. Further, the stride length tend to increase when running with a heel strike, called overstriding, which means landing with the foot/heel in front of the body. Overstriding is particularly bad for two reasons, 1) it means running against gravity and actually puts braking force to every stride 2) the likelihood of getting injured is particularly high if overstriding (extra load on the lower extremities, knees as well as hips).

It is an over simplistic and outdated approach to select a shoe according to arch type (flat, normal or high arch). It is becoming evident, in a new approach based on research, that treatment and prevention of Running injuries need to focus on Running technique/ form analysis – a whole body Running analysis.

New approach – Running form and whole body Running Analysis The New approach is holistic and includes a whole body Running analysis, rather than just focus on foot landing filmed from rear view. Learning and understanding the cornerstones of natural Running and improving your running form through a running analysis can make a difference for preventing injuries and improving your running performance. The New approach is;

Unfortunately, the sad story about “modern” running shoes and heel striking does not end here. If a runner strikes the ground midfoot under the center of mass, then the ankle is locked. However, when heel striking the foot becomes a loose adaptor when it hits the ground. Consequently, with heel striking runners started to overpronate and supinate more regularly.

– Preventive vs Corrective

The footwear industry's response to this was Motion Control shoes. Consequently, the key role for “modern” footwear over the last 20 years has been to provide support (duo density midsoles) to guide your foot towards a neutral gait, which has been believed to make you less prone to injury. However, a built-in mechanical solution to fix an already unnatural “modern” running shoe did not help. Injury rates have not been reduced.

No Nonsense Products for No Nonsense People

Runners were advised to buy shoes based on foot type – low, medium or high arch. What most people do not realize is that there is no evidence-based research existing on recommending one particular shoe model over another for a given foot type or injury history, despite what some manufacturers claim.

– Form vs Footwear – Whole body Running analysis vs just Foot landing – Proprioception (sensory feedback from feet to brain) vs Protecting the feet – Lightweight performance shoes

Benefits of naturalRUNNING technique In short, • Your body’s own natural cushioning anatomy can be utilized to its full extent. • Minimal energy loss on footstrike, as footstrike occurs under the center of mass. Use the “free” energy - gravity to your advantage. • A better running form, naturalRUNNING can be effective in preventing injury. • Happy strong feet – (if you use naturalRUNNING shoes) – the foot receives less guidance and support, so it has to utilize the entire foot muscles instead. The arch is constructed with a flexible and elastic web that consists of 26 bones, 33 joints, 12 elastic tendons and 18 muscles that all tense and stretch together and functions like a spring when Running naturally. • A “new authentic” and immensely enjoyable feeling when running.

The 5 cornerstones of natural running? #1 posture.

#2 foot landing.

#3 lean.

#4 cadence. Turnover of the feet.

# Stand tall. # Feet straight ahead. # Knees soft (not locked). # Relaxed arms to sides at a 90° angle. # Relaxed shoulders. # Use compact arm swings. # Avoid crossing the body center line. # Lead with your chest and push hips forward. To get the body in a correct alignment is the foundation of good running posture; • Relaxed arms to sides at a 90° angle and relaxed shoulders • In the forward arm swing, keep the arms closer to your body and decrease angle • Use compact arm swings, avoid crossing the body center line • Lead with your chest and push your hips forward (don’t sit) • When you get tired you want to avoid to start slouching. Think about yourself with having strings attached to your body being pulled up almost like a puppet. Run Tall, Run Strong.

# The entire foot should land softly underneath the hip line with a bent knee.

# Lean from the ankles without bending at the waist.

# Contact ground ideally with midfoot (ball of foot) first.

# Use gravity to help create forward momentum.

# Landing midfoot makes best use of your body’s natural cushioning anatomy and spring energy. # Run light, avoid pounding - focus on quick turnover of the feet. Where you strike the ground with your foot is critical for your running efficiency. • Landing midfoot makes best use of the body’s Natural cushioning anatomy and spring biomechanics (elastic recoil). A midfoot strike under your center of mass maximizes your running efficiency and stabilizes the foot. Stability equals better alignment and better alignment equals less negative forces which in turn lead to less injuries. You avoid the negative initial impact force caused by a heel strike. Watch out for over striding (landing far in front of your body) with the ankle becoming a loose adaptor - prone to overpronate. Note, a heel strike that lands close to the center of mass (hips) and on a bent knee causes no significant over-braking or over-loading to the knee. If you want to feel where you foot should be at – do the run ups drill. It really gives you a sense of where your footlanding should be – not at the heel and not up on your toes. You should first touch the ground at the ball of your foot and then bring your whole foot down. Remember, you take approximately 1000 steps per kilometer and each step takes a load of approximately 3 times your body weight, consequently an error in footlanding has a huge impact over time for your long-term running health.

In most disciplines there is “no free lunch”, everything comes at a cost. The good news for runners is that for Running there is actually free energy – gravity is the free energy source – you just need to learn how to best use it. You want to shift your weight forward from the ankles in order to capitalize of the forward falling motion and transition that gravitation energy into your running. Make sure you do not bend at the waist. The lean should start from the ankles and involve your whole body. Let the “free engine” gravity work its wonders to your running and you will run more efficient and effortlessly than ever before.

# Target 180 steps per minute. # A quick turnover of the feet increases efficiency and reduces ground reactive forces. # Aim for the same cadence jogging as running at faster speed, just adapt the stride length. # Please note! Stride length expands backwards, not forwards! You should never land in front of the body, thereby activating a break force on every step. Turnover of the feet or cadence is essential part of correct running technique. A quicker turnover means a more efficient run. Less friction and impact forces, which makes it easier for the muscles. The fact that the stride length expands backwards and not forwards is one of the reasons you want to increase your range of motion in the hip area. Maintaining a high Cadence is also the key to improve your uphill, downhill and cross-country running.

#5 hip. # Movability and flexibility around the hip area is essential for good running mechanics. # Hip is at the center of mass for the human body, it’s therefore crucial to position the hip correctly for effective running – push hip forward.

If you push off too hard with your quads without the right hip position, you will most likely end up overstriding with a heel strike. In order to generate a long powerful stride without reaching forward with your leg and over striding, you need to focus on your hip drive. Hip extension, is when you drive your upper thigh (and leg) backwards after your foot makes contact with the ground. Hip extension acts as a throttle how fast you are able to run. 2014 SALMING NATURAL RUNNING

Natural Running shoes

Salming rule of 5 Product Design Framework

Natural running shoes should be designed to facilitate the right running technique/form. At Salming we apply what we call the “Rule of 5”.

The shoes should be:

#1 light

Improves Running efficiency with approximately 3-4% per 100 g reduction in shoe weight. Lightweight shoes will cut minutes off from your PB on a half marathon.

#2 flexible Flexibility should imitate the foot flexibility in order to mimic the barefoot running technique. The result is happy strong feet - as you will improve training of biological structures with a flexible forefoot shoe design.

#3 flat Low Heel to Toe Drop facilitates correct foot landing on the ball of the foot. In addition you become more naturally balanced with gravity without adjusting body position. The arch area of the shoe should not be pushed up too much as it prevents the arch’s natural cushioning and spring function.

#4 thin Low Heel to Toe Drop facilitates correct foot landing on the ball of the foot. In addition you become more naturally balanced with gravity without adjusting body position. The arch area of the shoe should not be pushed up too much as it prevents the arch’s natural cushioning and spring function.

#5 comfortable Comfortable - Anatomic fit. A relatively roomy toebox is preferable so the toes are not pinched together. A tight toebox will deform the foot over time and lead to all sorts of problems. We want the foot to be able to function exactly as nature intended it to. 6

Transition

Road map If you have been running with a heel strike in a traditional running shoe with an elevated heel and thick midsole, then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important that you do not do too much too soon. A correct running form, natural running activates the calf muscles and achilles tendon more, so start out gentle with half the distances you are used to or less, run the first 2-4 weeks and then slowly increase the distance over the next 2-8 weeks. Pre-conditioning through eccentric calf raises and run-ups will help you build strength and facilitates the transition into a natural running form. For tips and exercises, check out the Salming Running Academy at salmingrunning.com

Salming Running Analysis

RunLAB™

Qualisys is a leading provider of motion capture technology and has a long history of supplying research, engineering and sports facilities with the tools and know-how of capturing and analysing movements. Qualisys offers a wide range of products and services, including an advanced running analysis service. 3D model of a runner visualised in Visual3D, the advanced biomechanical analysis software.

The Salming RunLAB™ Running Analysis service uses cutting edge motion capture technology, the same technology used for animation in large movie productions. We can capture a runner’s every move with 400 frames per second and excellent precision, the goal being to give an objective view of a person’s running technique. We promote a holistic approach towards running and emphasize on the importance of a full body analysis, not just lower-body analysis which is common practice elsewhere. After the runner’s movements have been captured and analyzed, the results are summarized and presented in a web based report. The report includes but is not limited to key parameters such as pelvic rotation, knee angle, ankle flexion and foot contact. The analysis is interpreted by an expert coach who gives useful tips and training advice on how the runner can improve both technique and posture. More often than not, the coach can suggest specific exercises targeting muscles vital to sustaining a good running technique. We are passionate about running and it’s our ambition that our analysis can be used to give concrete clues not only on how to improve performance but maybe more importantly, on how to avoid running injuries altogether.

Example of our running report, created in html5 and accessible on the web.

3D tracking software used to run the motion capture process.
