Run Forefoot

Barefoot running produces actual outcomes that are better for your shins vs cushioned running shoes or orthotics: http://runforefoot.com/causes-shin-splints-forefoot-running/

The lack of mechanical interference from thick underfoot cushioning in a barefoot shoe, or even better, when running barefoot, makes the ankle work less at stabilizing the foot, which was found to prevent peroneal tendon injury vs thick cushioned shoes: http://runforefoot.com/cushioned-running-shoes-peroneal-tendinitis/

Minimalist shoes always make the most positive difference!

Studies show minimalist shoes improve stability in people with a history of falls (Allen et al. 2023), relieves pain in older women with knee osteoarthritis (Trombini‐Souza et al. 2015) and improves balance in children (Quinlan et al. 2022): https://xeroshoes.com/go/Run_Forefoot
