Do you experience knee pain while running?

Did you know that when the knee hurts, the knee is actually one of the last places you should look to find the cause?

Problems occur when a knee becomes misaligned, and one cause for this can originate in the foot/ankle.

If one or both feet has a structural problem ("flat feet", high arch, weak ankles, for example), this condition can cause the leg to rotate improperly, which in turn produces stress on the knee.

As knee muscles and ligaments weaken, the joint may begin to move out of its proper position. These imbalances have a potential "ripple effect" which can affect the hips, low back, and neck.

That's why you'll often encounter someone whose back started hurting after he/she began having knee problems.

Introducint Poron XRD - Extreme Impact Protction Material

Boy playing footballPORON XRD protection has been specially designed to utilize the natural behavior of polymers to its advantage. It exploits the phenomenon that polymers can act as either a soft or hard (firm) material dependent on either temperature or the rate of impact. In the case of PORON XRD protection, at room temperature or 'at rest', it is soft and contouring to the touch.

But when impacted,the material behaves like a much firmer material, allowing it to readily absorb the energy of an impact. Thus PORON XRD material acts as a layer of wearable protection. It is soft to the touch, lightweight, contouring, and testing confirms that it absorbs more than 90 percent of energy upon repeated impact.

Because it is lightweight and flexible, like a "second skin, PORON XRD protection will not constrict freedom of movement or range of motion, allowing athletes to achieve their peak performance level.
