The overpronation myth - what running shoe brands will NEVER tell you - with podiatrist Nick Knight

The overpronation myth - what the running shoe brands will NEVER tell you - with Nick Knight from NK Active, one of the UK’s leading musculoskeletal and rehabilitation clinics. Nick shares the latest science which clearly states that overpronation is not a 'thing' and it doesn't cause injury. If you have a niggle or an injury it's much more likely to be a result of increasing your training load too rapidly and not doing 18mins of strength work 3 times a week, plus other important training aspects that are often overlooked like sleeping and eating well. Luckily Nick reveals the top 3 things we can do to avoid or reduce injury and the best 3 quick & easy strength exercises.https://nkactive.co.uk/ Original broadcast on YouTube here https://youtu.be/bUerYjf5JfY 00:00 Welcome Nick01:20 What is overpronation?08:04 Flat feet?09:37 Shoe brand myths15:04 Need insoles?17:25 High arches & overpronation21:02 Need stability shoes?24:35 Banned shoes26:02 Why trail shoes are neutral29:18 Top 3 things to avoid injury46:37 Top 3 strength exercises53:16 Zero drop shoes?56:13 Supination & insoles?58:14 Rehab timescales?59:47 Find & follow Nick My book, The Ultimate Trail Running Handbook https://amzn.to/3jgKvTyPlease like and subscribe here on YouTube https://linktr.ee/ClaireWGRFollow me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wildgingerrunning/Support me on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/WildGingerRunningMeet me at Nene Valley trail races https://nenevalleyraces.wordpress.com/ Fancy a show without ads?
