Intrinsic gait-related risk factors for Achilles tendinopathy in novice runners: A prospective study.
Van Ginckel A, Thijs Y, Hesar NG, Mahieu N, De Clercq D, Roosen P, Witvrouw E. Gait Posture. 2008 Nov 28. [Epub ahead of print]
Logistic regression analysis revealed a significant decrease in the total posterior-anterior displacement of the Centre Of Force (COF) (P=0.015) and a laterally directed force distribution underneath the forefoot at 'forefoot flat' (P=0.016) as intrinsic gait-related risk factors for Achilles tendinopathy in novice runners.
Did anyone read the paper?
Did they examine what is meant by a decrease in the total posterior-anterior displacement of the Centre Of Force .
Is this a midfoot/forefoot striker?
