Abstract
The research focused on changes in running economy – minute oxygen uptake, heart rate. We have compared forefoot run and rearfoot run at habitually forefoot runners and habitually rearfoot runners. The research attended sixteen healthy, injury free, amateur distance runners, eight habitually forefoot runners and eight habitually rearfoot runners. The research conducted in laboratory condition on the treadmill. Testing speed was set at 12 kilometers per hour. Duration of the test was 2x12 minutes. Athletes ran one test with impact on the toe and one test with impact on the heel. Oxygen uptake: Median habitually FFS – test forefoot: 3.156 ± 0.38 ; test rearfoot: 3.017 ± 0.42 . Median habitually RFS – test forefoot: 3.323 ± 0.31 ; test rearfoot: 3.106 ± 0.35 . Heart rate: Median habitually FFS – test forefoot: 146.10 ± 8.88 bpm; test rearfoot: 144.75 ± 11.62 bpm. Median habitually RFS – test forefoot: 170.87 ± 17.28 bpm; test rearfoot: 167.99 ± 16.20 bpm. Habitually forefoot runners has higher oxygen uptake, when they run forefoot. Difference at habitually forefoot runners between rearfoot and forefoot is 0.139 . The proponents of rearfoot running advocate that human feet are born to run rear on the ground because our ancestors ran for thousands of years.
