Are you claiming the motion of supination and pronation are pathological?
What evidence is there for static examinations being able to determine dynamic function?
What if a cause of the supinated foot posture is a laterally deviated STJ axis, what would your treatment be then?
Thanks
Years of seeing so called specialists and they couldn’t find out why my knees hurt. 10 seconds of googling and this video later, I’m finally correcting my over pronation. Thank you!
what if my heels are worn off on the outside but worn off in the middle on the ball is that pronation or supination?
When you walk, you you put one foot in front of the other. Have you ever stopped to think about how you walk? Pronation is important to maintaining good lower body health!
Watch our video to learn more about pronation:
What if you have a high arch and you still Over-Pronate. Please help?
Hi, thanks for marking out the difference between the two. If one has a supination at foot. Which muscles to strengthen to get correct the foot mechanics/ avoid supination?
This guy is a hyper-pronator! His brain is telling him to supinate to counteract his ankles falling in and his toes are gripping the ground for some support. His pet Peroneals are very developed ( to maintain his supination). Remember the brains “righting reflex.” His feet are splayed and he is a classic Morton Toe patient. When will you guys figure out what short first metatarsal is??????? Over 70% of Americans %! Watch for my paper but Imight have to make. You Tube video first! Rshartz,!D
This is still confusing as heck??? Didnt explain how to find out
Ahhhh!!! Finally. I had to look at anatomy of feet to find which part was the worse and everyone kept saying over pronation(which I didn’t know what it was). 20 laps around our driving pad is 1 miles so I’ve been doing that to avoid gym during covid. Constantly turning left while running has left only my right foot in so much pain. Now I finally understand why! I thought i was going to have to quit running
amazingly succinct. i finally figured out which category i belong to after sooo many years. Big thanks!
I started doing exercises for pes planus for the past several days, now I’m experiencing a slight burning sensation in my achilles. Is this normal? What should I do to mitigate this?
Wtf the water test chart is all wrong, as compared to everywhere else on the internet. Please correct it or explain why everywhere else is completely different ie it’s completely reversed.
I’ve been having knee pain since I was a kid. No doctor or coach ever have mentioned to me the type of shoes I’m wearing.
This channel is really helpful. Thanks for the hard work
This video was so helpful as was the one on supination. I watched 3 videos before yours and I was incredibly confused. This was so clear. Thank you you are my hero!
To my knowledge there has to be a certain forefoot / midfoot eversion through the talonavicular joint, around the time of toe off, for the Arch being stable and the first ray being the main contact point, without that mechanism, the rearfoot would go into valgus.
This was very helpful gents. Makes sense why I am having IT band/hip tension, now I can choose a proper tennis shoe. Cheers!:)
Why is it important? What evidence, scientific, as peer-reviewed article, at least, based on a random control trial with good design?
where part 2 of this video. I’d like to correct my supination. The out sides of my shoes wear out fast. I’ve brought a Dr.Schols 440 but it helped only a little
My shoes show most of the wear is on the outer edge of both the heel and the forefoot which by this video means I should stick with a neutral shoe.
I have pretty severe supination! Though have learned plenty of ways to manage it, so that I can keep running marathons without injury:D
I have pronation when no stand straight up barefooted but have supination when I walk with shoes on what can I do it sole can I buy? I also have flat feet
Does anyone know how to stop shoes from leaning inwards? I really don’t want to look crazy and I stay nervous walking in public
Oh yeah because I have a Sony x-70 camera just laying around at home.
the pinky toe area of my forefoot wears, and the inside of my heel wear… I’m so confused
Yeah this is not that great please consider redoing this properly. thanks. You do not by any means, give the comparison contrast promised.,
what are the best shoes you recommend to help correct supination?
You should be barefoot during the treadmill test to see the actual landing of the feet.
Cant help but feel like supination is much more manageable than pronation. Can you share or link us to any PT techniques or stretches to correct these?
I always just assumed I needed a shoe for overpronation because I have very flat feet. But looking at my two running shoes I own they are both worn out on the outsides by the pinky toe and the inside of the shoes looks in fairly good shape still.
still don’t know what’s wrong bc after I ran 3k mi yesterday my arches hurt from rubbing against my shoes. supination?
I have flat feet and yet I supinate as my shoes wear out on the outside. In your video you mentioned that the reason people supinate is because of high arches. So, is my case very unique then since I have flat foot and suffer from supination?
The title doesn’t match the video…. just wanted to see the action for pronation and supination of the ankle but that wasn’t “a simple explanation” that I got
Instead of buying a shoe and expecting that to fix your pronation, just improve your running form to avoid getting injuries. This pronation nonsense is just a way for running shops to sell you overpriced shoes.
Now I won’t sound stupid trying to tell my doctor concerns about my healing broken ankle:)
This was very helpful. Can you tell me what type of shoe is best for strength training classes for women? I find a lot of information about running shoes for women who suffer from Supination but nothing for strength or cross training. Either way thank you for posting the video >’.’<
That’s clear. Thank you. I would advise you to get a microphone for better sound quality of your videos. Cheers
Yeah, I completely agree with you. Shoe selection is very important. people who have flat feet or low arches and can help prevent overpronation. For more information, visit https://kidsole.com/how-arch-support-can-help-growing-feet/
Nice educational video…physiotherapists in Tralee, Co. Kerry https://www.physiotherapiststralee.ie/
I have orthodics…more than 20 years.
There is alaways pains..
At 60 yeaes old…i gave up on having no more pain
what type of saucony shoes is the green and black one in this video?
I have a very arched arch, I’m supinated. I feel like it makes my slight bowlegged walk a little worse
I have found only the video test worthwhile. The other tests show me to be a (mostly) neutral runner while I clearly overpronate on video and my injury history also suggests i am not a neutral runner.
