Our feet do so much for us and so much can go wrong with them, but we do not often consider them unless we feel foot pain. Feet play an important role in the function of the gait cycle and influence the rest of our bodies. If our pronation or supination is off, shock absorption and walking can be af...
When performed correctly, running is an excellent way to strengthen the lower body, build endurance, and improve body composition. If you’re serious about running or want to improve your form, use this as your guide to efficient and safe running.
Biomechanics Are Key
Trees are fascinating organisms. With the ability to capture radiant energy and turn it into a chemical energy and to create something solid out of thin air, trees are truly amazi
I really enjoy studying biomechanics. I find it totally fascinating to learn, for example, that a certain muscle is very well suited to stabilize a joint, but not to move it through a large range of motion; or that it is active in one movement but not another; or that it becomes atrophied in people
Posture mechanics can create unbalanced biomechanical stress due to asymmetric movement and function. Overtime posture will actually bend and collapse.
Your feet are the foundation of your body People sometimes wonder how orthotics can correct knee or hip problems. Have you ever had a b...
Endurance sports are typically not thought of as highly technical endeavors, but proper movement during training and competition for endurance sports can affect both performance and health.
The future of exercise will revolve around the body being able to perform both daily tasks and vigorous activites with correct biomechanics.
