The connection relating to the use of the most suitable running shoe and getting a running injury is a arguable issue. There can be strongly held thoughts for both sides of this argument and there's not a lot of scientific research that will help deal with the controversy. The assumption is that a runner needs the proper running footwear because of their function to avoid an excessive use injury from happening, so if an unacceptable running shoe is used we have an increased chance for an overuse injury. Nonetheless, the actual data that helps that frequently used content is just not there ultimately causing all the viewpoints and arguments about this matter. The athletic shoes marketplace is worth several billion dollars and up to half or maybe more athletes have an overuse injury each and every year, therefore a good deal is at stake in this discourse.
A recent episode of the podiatrist's live show, PodChatLive the show's hosts talked with the athlete and podiatrist Michael Nitschke concerning this matter and just what function, in general does the running footwear play in overuse injury. And also they specifically spoken of a whole new running shoe made by Nike that they say will lessen the running injury rate. There is some Nike funded investigation that supports this claim, but that studies have not yet been published bringing about a great deal of speculation and further more adding to the controversy about this concern. The PodChatLive was worthwhile because it considered every one of the problems without having to take one side or another. The two hosts and Michael Nitschke are runners themselves and also have to make conclusions not simply for what running shoes that they are going to run in but also help to make suggestions for their patients which they consult with clinical conditions. This is required to be done in the perspective of the uncertainty together with the data that supports the prescription and use of running footwear. Above all, they believe that comfort is among the most important factor to take into account when making conclusions concerning running footwear.
