bodies can move around most

Banning

Research carried out by Clifton Bradeley at the Sub-4 Human Performance lab has revealed that human asymmetry is responsible for the majority Nike Air Max 95 Womens of repetitive injuries in runners and in many other sports.

95% of the world’s population has a leg length inequality (one leg that is longer than the other) and the body deals with this Nike Roshe Run Donna in very specific ways.  We’ve put concrete and other hard surfaces down in much of our environment.  And because concrete has 100% energy return, it sends a shock wave back up through the feet, Nike Air Max 90 Mujer legs and into the lower back increasing the risk of injury.  Running with a leg length inequality on concrete can increase the risk of sports injuries.  However, good quality running shoes help reduce this risk by absorbing shock.

Overcompensation Can Cause Injury

Your posture can deal with the leg length inequality by compensating in the feet, legs, pelvis and upper body.  By using the legs as a Nike Air Max Tn Homme series of levers and allowing the pelvis to compensate for asymmetry, our bodies can move around most environments effectively. But just because movement is possible, doesn’t negate the chance Nike Free 5.0 Homme for injury. In fact, the overcompensation our bodies use to adapt can actually increase the risk of injury, especially if the overcompensation is too great.
