This study aimed to assess the effects of running-induced fatigue on plantar pressure parameters in novice runners with low and high medial longitudinal arch. Plantar pressure data from 42 novice runners (21 with high, and 21 with low arch) were collected before and after running-induced fatigue protocol during running at 3.3m/s along the Footscan(®) platform. Peak plantar pressure, peak force and force-time integral (impulse) were measured in ten anatomical zones. Relative time for foot roll-over phases and medio-lateral force ratio were calculated before and after the fatigue protocol. After the fatigue protocol, increases in the peak pressure under the first-third metatarsal zones and reduction under the fourth-fifth metatarsal regions were observed in the low arch individuals. In the high arch group, increases in peak pressure under the fourth-fifth metatarsal zones after the running-induced fatigue was observed. It could be concluded that running-induced fatigue had different effects on plantar pressure distribution pattern among novice runners with low and high medial longitudinal foot arch. These findings could provide some information related to several running injuries among individuals with different foot types.

This study evaluated the acute fatigue-inducing effect of distance running on kinematics and kinetics during overground running. Standardised mean differences (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were used to pool data across 16 studies. Effects during consistent (pre- and post-fatigue running speed within ± 5%) versus varied speed running (difference of >5% between running speeds) were analysed separately.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explored how running fatigue affects plantar force distribution in amateur runners' dominant and nondominant feet to help improve training programs and reduce injury risks.
  • Thirty participants had their plantar forces measured before and after a running-induced fatigue protocol using advanced deep learning models for detection.
  • Results showed significant changes in force distribution post-fatigue, with the ConvLSTM model outperforming CNN in recognizing fatigued gaits, providing valuable insights for injury risk assessment.

Objective: The objective of this study was to examine the effects of fatigue on the coordination variability between the trunk, pelvis, and hips during treadmill running.

Methods: The kinematics data were recorded during ten successive treadmill steps running at the preferred speed and at 80% and 120% of the preferred speed. The angle segment data obtained during the running cycles were normalized to 100 data points, and they were split into ten periods.
