You are currently viewing Podcast Episode 99 Minimalist vs Maximalist Shoes For Running

In this week’s podcast, we discuss the best shoes for running. Most people assume that a shoe that provides maximal support is the best for runners since it protects their feet the most. However, wearing a shoe with thick padding allows for poor running technique that can result in injury. The best option is to go with a minimalist shoe that allows you to feel the ground as you run. This will not only force you to run more efficiently, it will also strengthen your feet as an added benefit. To learn more about why you want to avoid maximalist shoes and why minimalist shoes are better, listen to this week’s podcast.
