The authors review the biomechanics of cycling and discuss the ideal cyclist's morphology. Examination of the cyclist when resting and when cycling is described. A variety of overuse injuries commonly sustained by cyclists are reviewed, and strategies for altering the cyclist's mechanics to relieve the pain are described. Because the bicycle and the cyclist must be considered as a unit, this article offers instruction for adjusting the bicycle as well as the cyclist. Full article

Vertical plantar forces are known to be a major precipitating factor in the development of foot pathology. It is also postulated that shear forces are important in the pathogenesis of foot ulcers in patients with diabetes mellitus. Various materials are used in insoles designed to reduce forces on the foot. While many foam materials have been tested for their ability to dissipate vertical forces, few studies have tested the effect of these materials on shear forces. This study assessed the effectiveness of five different materials in reducing plantar shear forces and compared two new gel materials with three of the more conventional foam materials. Four subjects were tested while walking over a force platform with one of the five materials taped to the surface. Peak force, impulse, and resultant shear force data were analyzed. The gel materials were significantly better than the foam materials at reducing shear forces. Thus the use of gel materials in insoles may be indicated for the reduction of plantar shear forces on the diabetic foot. Full article

The term "normal foot" has many different interpretations. This article reviews some of the ways in which the word "normal" has been used historically to describe the foot. Also discussed are the problems of attempting to determine what should constitute a normal foot and proposed criteria for distinguishing between the normal and the pathological. Full article

A critical review of the literature on foot orthoses

Abstract
Many reports have been published on the value of foot orthoses in treating a variety of biomechanical problems. This article reports on the application of rules developed in the 1980s to assess the scientific rigor, and hence the clinical applicability, of these publications. [...] Read more.

The purpose of this study was to describe the velocity of the center of pressure during walking in a sample of young, healthy individuals. The velocity of the center of pressure was recorded in 60 subjects while they walked barefoot over a floor-mounted pressure platform. The results of this study indicate that the velocity of the center of pressure follows a predictable pattern during the stance phase of walking. Intraclass correlation coefficients calculated to measure between-trial reliability for specific parameters of the velocity of the center of pressure ranged from 0.361 to 0.912. These study results suggest that velocity of the center of pressure may be a useful measurement in future gait research. Full article
