@tomgoom I have a real problem with the concept of pronation-related injuries. It presupposes that pronation a) is directly related to injury and b) certain injuries are more related to over pronation than others. I think this paper by @BennoNigg summarizes this https://t.co/IZBhkDuk7M

AI synopsis
What people are saying
Throughout the discussions, users question the scientific backing of the 'preferred movement path' and 'comfort filter' concepts, with comments like 'any studies or RCTs to back up these theories?' and critiques of pronation myths. The tone varies between curiosity and skepticism, reflecting an engaged but cautious exploration of the article's ideas.
The discussion shows mixed reactions; some express skepticism about the theories, while others acknowledge the relevance of comfort and movement patterns.
Most posts demonstrate moderate interest, with some users asking for evidence and others commenting on the concepts' relevance.
Participants actively engage by questioning assumptions, referencing related research, and discussing implications, indicating thoughtful involvement.
The social discussions appear to influence perceptions but do not indicate widespread changes in beliefs or practices regarding running injuries.
Abstract in brief
- The paper examines how running injuries and shoes have evolved over the past 40 years, questioning the actual impact of sports shoes and inserts on injury rates.
- It discusses previous research on injury mechanisms related to footwear, such as impact forces and ankle pronation, and highlights the lack of conclusive evidence linking these factors to injury risk.
- The author proposes two new concepts — the preferred movement path and the comfort filter — suggesting that runners naturally select comfortable shoes that align with their movement patterns, potentially reducing injury risk and explaining why injury rates haven't significantly changed over time.]

Most liked on X and BlueskyAthletes are individual, complex systems, governed by ‘constraints’ which apply ‘boundaries’ to how they can move. And according to the ‘preferred movement path hypothesis’, athletes develop a unique, preferred — & most efficient — running technique. https://t.co/qo5CeIqeCF
@CraigBPayne Thanks for sharing @CraigBPayne Other than a couple cross sectional studies (https://t.co/MxTjx4kGbh) & (https://t.co/dOk3nRcY8o) do we have a lot of confidence that rearfoot eversion truly matters for RRI? Seems the data is fairly weak on this construct https://t.co/AEGIuu70Y9

@DerekGriffin86 Thanks Derek. Any evidence that comfort is a mediating variable? e.g., any studies or RCTs to back up the 'preferred movement path' and 'comfort filter' theories? https://t.co/O5c8rh9E0U

Running shoes vs injury? Two paradigms, 'the preferred movement path' and 'the comfort filter', suggest that a runner intuitively selects a comfortable product using their own comfort filter that allows them to remain in the preferred movement path https://t.co/VpfWzhNSFG
