Key Terms:
1.
Cushioning systems greatly increased comfort, reduced the occurrence of painful feet and
allowed many people who would not otherwise have participated to enjoy the jogging boom.

Cushioning in athletic shoes has been shown to attenuate skeletal shock transients and to
reduce peak plantar pressures. The addition of a layer of compliant material between the foot
and the ground distributes impact forces, both temporally (reducing peak forces) and spatially
(reducing peak pressures).
2.
Analysis of Sprinting
The leg action in running is one that takes place in a sagittal plane about a frontal axis and
involves the hip, knee and ankle joints
The bones of the hip involved are the femur and pelvic girdle which form a ball and
socket joint.
The bones of the knee involved are the femur and tibia which form a hinge joint.
The bones of the ankle involved are the tibia and calcaneus which form a modified joint.
Each of these joints produces two actions, one when the leg is in contact with the ground
(driving phase) and one when the leg is not in contact with the ground (recovery phase).
