Default Evidence for velocity of pronation and injury?
Podiatry Arena members do not see these ads
In the past excessive pronation was the evil motion that caused all injuries. Nothing a 6 degree rearfoot post and a motion control shoe could not fix!

The link between excessive pronation and injury however has come under greater research scrutiny and seems to have come up short. The new theory that has supplanted pronation as the evil of foot function is the velocity of pronation.

Does anyone know of any evidence to support the velocity of pronation as a significant factor in injury risk?

Thanks Simon,

I should have done a site search first.

Thanks for the links. It appears there is evidence for and against velocity of pronation as a risk factor.
