today's enhanced running video looks at over-striding a lot of people talk about how the foot lands on contact such as heel strike forefoot strike etc but from the research we see it's more important where the foot lands in relation to the body i've astronomies defined as landing with the foot contact distant from the center-of-mass whilst you'll never see someone land underneath their center of mass closer to it is more ideal over-striding is often seen alongside a decreased cadence increased vertical oscillation a lack of knee flexion on landing and a lack of a vertical tibia from
the research we also see that over-striding is metabolically inefficient from following more increases patellofemoral loads increases ground reaction forces braking forces and joint loading from harness shine increases risk of tibial stress fractures from Edwards and Sigma is also significant predictor of knee extensor moment and braking impulse during running from Willie study the correction for this is increasing cadence from harder shot cueing a foot landing underneath the body cueing a lot of foot landing and also shorter steps
