We are all interested in getting in great shape and the cheapest form of exercise is running. Most of us eat too much and we

need to exercise to maintain a healthy body weight. An hour of running burns about 850 calories. Of course, the faster you

run the more calories you burn. To be able to participate regularly in running the runner needs the best running shoes. Poor

shoes hurt our feet and we are more apt to get injuries when we are not wearing the right kind of shoes. This causes the

runner to get discouraged and soon quit running and perhaps all kinds of exercise.

There are four main types of jogging footwear although many companies would have you believe they have the one best

solution. The four types are motion control, stability, cushioning, and lightweight training. Buying the right footwear for

your gait will go a long way in helping you to love your new sport.

The first type of jogging footwear is the motion to control these shoes. Motion control footwear is built with a strong

inside post to help control the roll of the foot when jogging while remaining lightweight. These shoes are ideal for runners

with flat feet or low arches as they will protect the runner from stress injuries in the feet and legs.

The second type of jogging footwear is stabilizer ones. The main feature of this footwear is their stability with a midsole

with extra cushioning. They are the ideal for those who have a natural gait where the foot rolls to the inside or outside.

To determine if this is a problem for you, turn over an old pair. If either side of the pair shows excessive wear then you

will probably be most comfortable with a motion control pair. This problem is often caused by moderately low arches.

Cushioning footwear are the third type because they provide outstanding support to the foot. These are sometimes also known nike shoes onilne

as the neutral type. They are made to withstand many miles of training and have great cushioning built into the forefoot and

heal. A runners foot will often break down in these two areas first especially as the training miles increase.

A runner will enjoy this kind of shoe if they have a natural gait with an arch that is rigid. The runners body may have a

little difficulty absorbing shock. This type of foot has a somewhat rigid arch that does not fall apart and therefore the

foot does not absorb enough shock. This type of runner needs a shoe that has a lot of cushioning built into it. To test the

cushioning take it out and see how far you can bend it. If you can bend it almost in half then this may be the right

footwear for this type of runner.

The fourth type of is known as the lightweight trainer. These are often known as cross trainers. They are ideal for those

who want one pair of shoes to do many physical activities. They will offer great support for lateral moves. These are great

for those who have a smooth natural gait.

Picking the best footwear for jogging will depend on what type of foot you have. Your best friend may like one and you may

hate it. Many stores will now encourage you to come in and let them test your gait. This is a great idea regardless of where

you buy your shoes ultimately. A great pair of shoes should last around 500 comfortable miles.
