Teeter-totter effect: a new mechanism to understand shoe-related improvements in long-distance running
2021
Overview
Correspondence to Dr Benno M Nigg, Human Performance Laboratory, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB T2L 1N4, Canada; nigg@ucalgary.ca The effect of shoe mid-sole construction on running performance was discussed with reference to the Nike Vaporfly 4%.1 Drs Burns and Tam described the mid-sole thickness as the major running shoe characteristic that contributes to changes in performance. [...]the results of the leg model (representative of average-level runners) correlated with the results of the field tests. [...]it appears inappropriate to regulate one specific footwear feature before understanding where these performance advantages originated from.7 However, our current knowledge suggests that, compared with the teeter-totter effect, all other shoe characteristic contributions to performance are small and negligible.
