Pronation or Supination?

timclarkMetrics

Q: Pronation or Supination – how to tell the difference with the data? – JxRx A: Pronation excursion (FS-MP) is the measure of how much roll the foot experiences between footstrike (FS) and the point of maximum pronation (MP). MP usually occurs before contact time is on average around 300ms. Similarly Pronation Excursion MP- Toe Off (TO) is the amount … Read More
