Effects of midsole density distribution on kinematics and kinetics in running

During the first 2.5-minute bout, T2 values increased significantly for all of the analysed muscles. The experimental intervention with lateral posting significantly altered the muscle metabolism for the TP (120%), the EDL (72%), the SO (50%), the TA (49%), the GL (29%), and not significantly for the GM (11%) and the PER (7%). However, there were no significant changes in the T2 values in the two following bouts in all muscles. The intervention affected knee joint fontal plane movement and increased peak abduction angle from 3.8 § 4.0 to 5.1 § 4.3 (p < 0.05). In the transverse plane peak internal tibia rotation changed from 6.0 § 3.9 to 7.5 § 5.0 . Rearfoot eversion range of motion increased in lp-shoe from 8 to 14 (p < 0.01).
