Gel Nimbus 10

Running Shoes

When I decided to start taking my running sessions more seriously three years ago, a natural question comes to my mind: what kind of ecquipment shoud I use? It does not seem to be a daunting task for a beginner: T-shirt, shorts and a pair of running shoes. Stop. The decision on the type of shoes can be a headache really believe me ..

After some basic research on the Web, sports stores and my brother who use to be a professional athlete 10.000m and 5.000m in the distance, I found that if I had to save money on something Here I needed to make sure it was not the management of shoes! Saving Euros could cost much later (injuries, medical bills, or worse: I give up a habit that I tried to put in place at the time).

After a few weeks, I found just what I needed and I bought the Asics Nimbus 10, which matched perfectly my high .. arc feet, but how can I achieve this? Let's take a quick look at the model selection process shoes right running.

Make your essay wet!

In short, there are three basic types of foot, each based on the amount of our bows, with each affecting the reduction of the impact on the foot during the race. There are many ways for you to decide what type of foot you have, however, makes it easier than you think and stick to the test easier, but still very effective in wet conditions:

1: Pour a thin layer of water in a shallow pan

2nd: Stage and gently wet the soles of your feet

3rd: step onto a bag or a sheet of thick paper

4: Down to see the result

Interpretation of results

1) Flat Arch

If your overall impression is visible, it means that you have a flat foot - you're probably overpronator. For such there is some good walking shoes running that could adapt to the structure of your foot, here are some examples (only for men shoes "):

Asics GT-2140

New Balance MR 729

Salomon XT Wings-

Mizuno Wave-Nirvana 5

-Nike Air Equalon 2

2) Arch Normal

This is probably the most common type of foot (pronator normal) and what happens when you see about half of your bow on the wet footprint test. This short list could be a good start for you to choose (shoes for men only):

New Balance MR 749

III Puma Complete magnetizer

Equalon-Nike Zoom 3

Mizuno Wave Renegade 4-

Asics Gel-Evolution-5

3) High Arch:

Make your mark in an arc up and you can see the ball of the foot, heel trip and a thin line that moves outside of your foot (which is my type of foot:) In this case, you can take a look at these models (only for men's shoes ")

My Conclusion

Choose a shoe can be a daunting task, but believe me, he pays for the effort to be free of injury due to foot problems and thus able to gradually change your race.

It is a simple but great game and I think the basic training for any athlete in any sport from football to rugby, motor sports, tennis, swimming, etc., includes a system under execution of any good. I started just finishing 2 km without a break, today my week
