More Thoughts on Shoes and Feet - Ep150
This walking podcast is a bit of a rambling pile of thoughts on shoes and feet, in relation or response to some discussions I have had recently including feedback from my audience.
Specifically, I address the commonly held belief that in cycling, the best way to have good “power transfer” is to immobilize the foot in a rigid cocoon of carbon fiber and thermoplastic. This is incorrect.
The human foot is not meant to be locked in place, and while this may result in good performance in the short term, over any length of notable time, the performance of the athlete will suffer.
To hear me slay this sacred cow, go forth and make the keyboard mudras to play my thoughts in your mind palace.
