Find Your Foot Type:
了解自己的脚的类型
Figure out how you run (outside of your foot, outside to inside, or straight down the middle). The easiestway to determine how you run is to look at an old pair of running shoes. If the shoe is worn on the outside ofthe heel and rolls inward excessively, you have a pronated foot type - the majority of the population (60%)fits into this category. You're more likely to have this foot type if you are flat footed.
判断跑步的方式(脚外旋呈八字形,由外旋到内旋,或者两脚平直)判断你跑步方式最容易的方法就是看你的就运动鞋磨损的情况。如果你的鞋总是在脚后跟的外侧受力,然后被过度的磨损,那就说明你是内旋脚——大多数人(60%)的脚都是这样。如果你一般是慢跑的话就更有可能是内旋脚这种脚型。
If you have high arches, your foot is rigid and doesn't pronate (roll inward) so there is not an effective shockabsorber. Roughly 30% of the population has high-arched or supinated foot types.
如果你的脚弓的高,还比较僵硬,并不内旋(朝里旋),那就没法有效的吸振。大约有30%的人是高足的或者内翻型高足的脚型。
If you land on the outside of your heel and roll inward slightly to absorb shock, you are of normal weight, youare considered the most sound (biomechanically) runner. Only about 10% of the population hasneutral/ideal feet.
如果你是脚跟外翻着地,然后脚尖轻微朝里来吸振的话,那么你就是正常足。那你就是大多数人认为的(生物力学上的)的高效跑步者。只有10%的人能拥有这样的中型/完美的脚型。
Tips for Your Trip to the Shoe Store: Examine your old shoes for tread wear. Socks are important. Wear your running socks when you try on. If your feet are different sizes, buy for the larger one. Shoes with better breathability will help curb sweating. Grooves in the sole offer more flexibility. Flat feet need support rather than flexibility. If you tend to overpronate, look for shoes that will lace higher up so you can better customize the fit of theshoe. Shoe should feel comfortable right way - they don't need to be broken in.
鞋店购鞋过程之小建议检查你旧鞋的脚底胎面的磨损袜子很重要。试鞋的时候记得穿上你的运动袜如果你的脚大小不一致,那就买大脚适合的鞋子鞋的通透性较好的话有利于减少出汗鞋底的凹槽有利于增加灵活性平足更注重对脚的支撑而非灵活性如果你是过度内旋的话,那就找一双可以系紧点的鞋,因此你最好定制一双合适的鞋。鞋子必须一穿上就给你你舒适的当的感觉——不需要你去适应它。
When to Buy New Running Shoes: Look at the soles. If they are worn out or very unevenly worn it is time for a new pair. If you've traveled roughly 400-500 miles on your treadmill or it's been six months, it is time for a new pair.Remember, if you are wearing your shoes for other activities, those miles count too!
什么时候去买一双新的运动鞋呢?看鞋底,如果他们已经被磨损严重,穿起来有点不平衡了,就该换双新鞋了。如果你在跑步机上大概已经跑了400—500英里或者是已经穿了六个月,那也应该买双新的了。记住,如果你参加别的活动也穿了这双鞋,那那些路程也要算上。
What questions should the salespeople ask How long have you been running How much mileage are you doing per week Are you training for a particular event Where do you do most of your running How much do you weigh Are you aware of any foot problems
售卖员应该询问哪些问题呢你跑步时间为多长?你每周大概跑几英里?你是接受特殊的培训吗?你一般在哪里跑步?你体重多少??
Simple solutions will get your running. The more you know about your feet and what activities you will bepartaking in, the more prepared you will be to find the right pair of shoes. Shoes are important for the healthof your feet, but for the rest of your bones and joints as well.
轻松解决跑步中的问题。你越了解你的脚和你参与的运动,你准备的越充分,你就越容易找到一双适合你的鞋,鞋不仅对你脚的健康十分重要 ,对你的骨头和关节也同样重要。
