In runners, around 40% of injuries are in knee and 50-60% about them correspond to Patellofemoral Pain (PFP). Some theories believe that using a forefoot strike pattern (FFS) minimizes patelofemoral pain joint's loads so this technique could be adopted in treatment and prevention of PFP in runner. Although, this strike pattern increases loads rates in Achilles tendon and this could result…
In Brazil, the number of marathon runners has grown over 40% in the past 5 years, 23% of these runners are females. The running injuries are frequent, especially in the knee joint, and the patellofemoral pain (PFP) have the higher incidence. Recently, it has been hypothesized that modification of the running technique has potential to reduce the demand on the lower limb, and the landing w…
