I did once a long time ago, but not anymore after I started using minimalist/barefoot running shoes.

Those shoes encourage me to doforefoot strike (FFS)landing.

Not every time but I just alternately use normal shoes and minimalist/barefoot ones.

It takes some time to get used to them but it will eventually.

Maybe not for everyone but it's worth a try.



"Modern running shoes have become increasingly cushioned that altered our footstrike pattern from a predominantly forefoot strike (FFS) landing to a predominantly rearfoot strike (RFS) landing. This change may be contributing to the high rate of injuries runners experience while engaged in an activity for which they were adapted."

This is very specific to your foot and angles of foot strike so, if you don't have one near you, then find out where all the race guys shop for running shoes in your city.

Do you strike as a supinator, over pronator or neutral?

Honestly not sure how my feet are as far as striking or my tendencies are I just run lmao I don't do long distance runs like I used too in high school but I'm starting to learn as I get older quality running shoes seem to be in my future.

I have nike right now but my buddy who does marathons for fun says Nike is easily one of the worst shoes and has seen the most injuries in them.

Yes I am going through this right now, i had it twice before. Mine is a sharp pain on the outside of my left knee when i bend it so mostly stairs and getting up from a seating position. Its an IT Band issue and honestly I gave up trying to fix it previously because it seemed nothing worked and stopped running for years. I started running again last year and I'm not happy its back. Supposedly its caused from over training and weak glute/hip muscles. I'm doing hip exercises and taking a week off. I plan on Monday doing light sprints on a grassy field before any attempt of going back to regular running. My pain is on the outside of the knee and not under the knee cap so could be different issues entirely. Good luck.

I'm leaning more towards over training imo because I work out my legs plenty but will be doing some deep diving into what can prevent this for future issues, I had a hamstring pull in june of 2020 and my god... When I finally came back from that I made it a point to really focus on glutes and hamstring lifts to hopefully keep that away and of course quads, my calfs I feel like I could bring more into the forefront of my leg days

you should RICE and stretch your quads and stretch hip internal/external rotation. i'm guessing it's probably not a strength issue since this is a weightlifting form.

also consider orthotics, as over pronation can throw off gait mechanics.

the knee is a simple hinge joint that is at the mercy of the foot and the hips. this is usually where the problem lies.

honestly good to know, I've never had this issue before but I would also think maybe my shoes just aren't the right shoe for me and will be trying out some quality stuff this weekend to see how they feel. I'll do the hip stretches tomorrow slowly at first, today I've been icing and rest

Those guys were legit coudl see that my knees were trackign wrong, my illodial bands were tight, my hanstrings were tight and basically pulling my knees to the side. Gave me the stretches and exercises I had to do.


Was running with minimally stretching and also doing leg presses, minimal stretching, ignoring other leg muscle groups. Cut off all leg presses, did stuff for my hamstrings, did leg extensions, the last rang of motion part of them and a bunch of stretches. It helped a lot.



Also went to a different physical therapist for my back/shoulders a few years later and those guys sucked balls, barely paid any attention to you, had multiple patients going at once not one on one.

I've heard PT can be either a god send or absolutely suck, but I will be doing a deep dive into what causes this and how to prevent it. Nice to know I'm not alone in this and I'm guessing mine is due to imbalances possibly and also overworked myself a bit I think

A GOOD physical therapist can tell whats going on. luck of the draw if you get someone good or a retard.

yeah seems to be a something a lot of others here have dealt with imbalances

Will do, good to know thank you <3

I can't say I've tried them but my buddy who does marathons for fun says Brooks is one of the best around in his opinion

Every time I get a knee tweak anymore I resort to doing some of those excersizes when I have time and it helps.

Ah okay good to know, I do workout my legs twice a week but I'll be focused on the smaller stuff, I do plenty of squats and hamstring workouts, I pulled my hamstring June of 2020 and I don't want that coming back so I've made it a point to not ignore them because my god a hamstring pull is so hindering to your everyday life.
