Effectiveness of Lower-Cost Strategies for Running Gait Retraining: A Systematic Review

The effectiveness of lower-cost equipment used for running gait retraining is still unclear. objective this systematic review was to evaluate the in altering biomechanical outcomes that may be associated with injuries. literature search included all documents from MEDLINE, Web Science, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, and Scopus. studies were assessed risk bias using an evaluation tool cross-sectional studies. After screening 2167 initial articles, full-text performed 42 studies, 22 review. Strong evidence suggested metronomes, smartwatches, digital cameras are effective programs as tools intervention and/or results when step cadence foot strike patterns. found on accelerometers interventions feedback reduce peak positive acceleration (PPA) lower leg footwear while running. Finally, we a lack exclusively perform intervention/assessment retraining.
