The use of Gait Analysis to prescribe running shoes is based on flawed & outdated principles. Looking at running biomechanics to improve running performance or reduce risk of injury is also full of issues & limitations.

In fact, used in the correct way, Gait Analysis can often provide the missing link in rehab strategies for injured runners.
