November 27, 2015 updated by: Kaohsiung Medical University Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital

Analysis of the Different Running Speeds of Strike Patterns: The Efficiency of Shoes

The purpose of this research is to investigate the differences of landing patterns while running in different speed with barefoot and wearing shoe.

Detailed Description

Running speed will be adjusted with physical strength and circumstance. When speed changes, whether the landing patterns change or not may be one factor of sports injuries. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to investigate the differences of landing patterns while running in different speed with barefoot and wearing shoe.
