flat feet and force absorption
Hello Chris,do we know why flat feet= faster? it is evident that they do every elite sprinter have them do we know why though ?do they allow for more springy foot-running ONLY on ball of the foot and allow force absorption ? do they allow for more external rotation? whats your take .Also in ground contact when the foot is absorbing the force is extensive dorsiflexionin force absorption not ideal by the logic of the more you dorsiflex the more your shin becomes vertical and you push vertical also too much dorsiflexion is LOST ENERGY right ?Everybody dorsiflexes to absorb force but super elite sprinters(BOLT,JACOBS) seem to dorsiflex way less.
