The general considerations of how difficult it was to extricate the choice of a good running shoe were the words with which I left in my previous post ... let's see now take up the subject more penetrating in depth and find out what are the basic factors to take into proper consideration when entering a store to buy with a capital "that will change our lives of runners. Play as a novice runner and see how we comportaree us what we need to know when we go into a shop with the aim to come up with a brand-new pair of shoes to be worn and ready to grind tens of km . is what you do ....
- do not shop in your favorite department store specializing in running a small shop where you'll find, of course, competent staff ready to allay your concerns and direct you making you feel better to purchase different types and styles of shoes also prefer a shop where, in addition to the competence of the staff there is also a device that allows you to check first of the kind of support and then test the product you are going to buy.
- Know that running shoes are not all equal but are divided into four major categories (A4, A3, A2, A1), each of which has different features depending on the type of support to each athlete. Given the fundamental importance of this topic we will discuss all these "points" to those who explain why your choice will fall on a specific category rather than another We begin by describing these categories and what kind of shoes are on the inside.
The A4 are the shoes with maximum protection with anti-pronation systems. The A4 can be stable or in control ... full control of the shoes have a very pronounced anti-pronation support and are reserved for those runners who have a strong support in the prone position and though they are higher than 95 km Their main function is to minimize the pronation of your foot during the race. The stable, however, also have a less pronounced anti-pronation support and have a good compromise between ... stability and cushioning protective shoes are designed with a runner weighing less than 95 kg and pronation problems.
Note: Should you need this type of shoe I recommend you replace the original insole of the shoe with a sole that increases cushioning to compensate for any stiffness of the system due to anti-pronation shoe.
The A3 are the shoes with maximum cushioning, using materials that provide maximum midsole to absorb the impact with the ground and are aimed at all those people who have problems and want to support a protective shoe training. categories A1 and A2 are shoes that do not want to dwell too much as the runners abuse it too without having to boot ... the features are shoes for people who are able to run consistently under 4 Km without any biomechanical problem and reserved for speed workouts or races. ...
I personally think that "ordinary mortals" it could easily do without as it can run fast even with the excellent A3 or A4, as technological developments have pushed manufacturers to provide the market with no shoes read more neglecting the security features for our precious feet. So do not be fooled bright colors that characterize these shoes, almost aesthetically beautiful collection, designed primarily to advanced runners. After having described the various categories of running shoes you wonder why you should choose one rather than another? ... Good point ... why it depends on how your foot resting on the ground during the race, according to what you will be able to choose the most suitable model for you. to assess your support there are several ways but the easiest is to check the consumption of your shoes.
The assessment of support is the most important and also the more difficult, many times not just a mere superficial examination as the consumption of the shoe but it is necessary to deepen the conversation in an orthopedic study. But proceed slowly and start with the easiest way for most runners is enough to purchase them. start taking any shoe that has to his credit a fair amount of miles even just walk in and see what part of the sole has been worn the most.
From this simple analysis you can classify your support that may be of three types:
- supinator
- pronator
- neutral
The support of a supine expected consumption of the outside of the sole before The support of a pronation is characterized by a consumption especially outside of the heel and forefoot for domestic consumption, while the support and characterized by a neutral consumption central forefoot and the heel or forefoot of the sole consumption when the central support and typically "peak". If the first and third cases (supine and neutral) the category on which we must direct our purchase is the type A3 "cushioning" for the Oriet excessive pronation is necessary to an A4 "or MAXIMUM BUILDING CONTROL" according to what we described previously. Qual'ora move back into the latter category I recommend a medical examination by a good orthopedic sports that can evaluate a dynamic analysis pedometers if your pronation is likely to cause you problems in the long term support that could have an effect on your joints .
The use of a foot orthosis deserves a separate chapter we will discuss in another post. ... we stop here for now ... the next episode !!!!!!
