Choosing Minimalist Running Shoes
If you're interested in transitioning to barefoot running or would like some added protection while retaining the benefits,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], choosing minimalist running shoes is very important. There are many brands and types of shoe, however the best choice depends on each person's individual needs. I hope to explain what minimalist running shoes are,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when you should consider buying them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and how much you can expect to spend.
What ARE Minimalist Running Shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]?
To those unfamiliar with barefoot running,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], minimalist running shoes are probably a new concept. Since running barefoot poses certain risks to the feet,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], shoe companies have designed "minimal" footwear to keep the benefits of barefoot running and walking without getting rid of the protection a normal shoe generally offers.
With the increasing popularity of the barefoot running concept, some shoe companies have tried to replicate the barefoot running experience while still giving a little bit of protection. Some of these shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], if you can even call them shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], are mainly to provide a minimal amount of protection and traction to keep the barefoot feel intact.
Benefits of Barefoot and Minimalist Running
There are several benefits to barefoot running that I would like to explain. One of the largest reasons barefoot running is becoming so popular is due to the claims that it eliminates the risk for overuse injuries that are so common in traditional running. People that have had chronic injuries from running in the past have found that they are able to run barefoot after some training and not have any pain or at least less pain compared to regular running,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Since landing on the heel is bad both for efficiency and runner,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], especially when running barefoot,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the body will become accustomed to landing on the mid and fore foot. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], beginning to run barefoot without any training or transition time can also lead to injury. Most shoe companies recommend limiting use to 10% of your initial workout while gradually increasing it over time. Using minimalist footwear to transition into barefoot running is generally the safest way to reduce the risk on injuries.
Despite all this "advanced" design and technology the new minimalist shoes provide, the cost is surprisingly competitive with regular running shoes. Most lower priced minimal footwear is around $80-$90 and I have seen some on the expensive side as much as $ 200 or more. Obviously, higher quality shoes will be more expensive but with such a large price range, one should not have a problem finding a pair to fit their budget.
When deciding if you want to buy a pair of minimal or barefoot running shoes, it's important to keep in mind your current running technique. If you are accustomed to the "regular" style of running,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], try to incorporate it slowly into your schedule. Over time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you will adapt to running without the larger heels and cushions of traditional running shoes and get the most benefit
Yea it definitely would take some getting used to. If you can get a minimal shoe with some cushioning, it can help with the stones and such! I also agree that I don't think I would want to do barefoot running in the street, seems like it would pretty dangerous with the possibility of so many sharp objects and even glass.
