Each running blade is made from around 80 layers of carbon fiber. Blades are tailored to fit the individual running style and disability of each athlete, so no two blades are ever the same. However, they all work [on] the same principle.... When the bottom, or the "forefoot, "of the blade touches the ground, it compresses like a spring. Just like a spring, the blade stores energy. 2, record 1, English, - running%20blade

Natural running is running the way the human body was meant to run in its purest form... across a solid surface. That means running with good mechanics and an efficient gait that focuses on landing lightly on the midfoot/forefoot... and quickly lifting your foot off the ground instead of pushing off with excessive muscular force.... Tenants of natural running can be seen while running barefoot and running in lightweight or minimalist running shoes that allow your feet to develop proprioception or "feel" the ground with every step. 2, record 7, English, - natural%20running

The driving phase begins when the lead foot lands on the outside of the forefoot just in front of the athlete's center of gravity(i. e., the athlete's hips). The foot is driven to the ground by the hip extensor muscles. It is important for the quadriceps to fire as the foot makes contact with the ground to keep the knee from flexing excessively, which would dissipate elastic energy. The ankle should be dorsiflexed, with the foot's big toe pulled up, the combination of which will allow for the storage of elastic energy to be maximized to help with propulsion later... 1, record 10, English, - driving%20phase

The new combined pedal was invented by Mr. Sven Gustafsson, who came up with the idea during his travels with buses and lorries as a professional driver. The pedal is mounted in the same position as the conventional accelerator. The right foot is placed on the pedal and should stay there during the drive. A heel support prevents the foot from slipping off the pedal. When accelerating, the driver pushes with the forefoot in the usual manner and when braking, the driver pushes with the whole foot. 1, record 15, English, - combined%20accelerator%2Dbrake%20pedal

Le mécanisme s'articule autour d'un pivot qui agit comme le font les accélérateurs habituels. Le pied repose sur une plaque de métal au dessin ergonomique, qui permet d'assurer un plus grand confort au conducteur et qui favorise le maintien du pied près des pédales même si on ne les utilise pas, comme c'est le cas avec un régulateur de vitesse, par exemple. On accélère par une rotation du pied de l'arrière vers l'avant [...]. Pour freiner, le conducteur n'aura qu'à enfoncer le pied, comme il le fait déjà. La différence réside cependant dans le fait qu'il n'a pas à déplacer sa jambe pour ce faire. 1, record 15, French, - p%C3%A9dale%20unique

The purist would differentiate between the two by stating that in the metatarsus adductus there is no supination of the forefoot and that in the varus deformity, supination is present.

In summary, factors to consider in treatment are(1) the patient's age;(2) the flexibility of the condition;(3) the severity of deformity;(4) the presence of equinus;(5) abnormal shoe wear; and(6) the symptoms. When a child presents with severe flexible flatfoot one should rule out an underlying neuromuscular disorder and perform a complete biomechanical evaluation to ascertain any rotational or angular conditions of the legs that might influence the treatment. If a child is in... group III(ages 13 to 17) adolescent usually has the additional problem of a forefoot varus, which must be controlled using a forefoot post.
