How to solve the most common foot pain problem for cyclists? Many people ignore their feet when riding bicycles, and wait until they have problems with their feet before looking for solutions. Of course, there are some simple solutions to temporarily relieve the pain, but if you keep in this state often, it will cause great damage to your feet.
Then the most common types of foot pain for cyclists are generally divided into two categories: hot/friction injuries and compression injuries. Hot spots and blisters are usually generated by friction-sweating, swelling of the foot that exerts a consistent rhythmic force on the foot almost guarantees friction and pressure damage to the soft tissues of the foot. So fitting shoes, high-quality wicking socks, and bike insoles become very important.
If you wear inappropriate shoes and insoles, it is easy to compress and squeeze the delicate nerve structure in the foot, so compressive injuries may occur.
There are many shoe pads on the market that come with a fragile and low-key foam/plastic/cork/cardboard.
It has almost no structure, support or shape. This may be problematic.
When riding a bicycle, the wrong foot posture can also cause foot discomfort. Under normal circumstances, the feet are used to walk. We have three stages of standing: heel, midfoot and toes. Cycling is most similar to the midfoot posture.
Of course, some people are born with flat feet, high arches, inner or outer eight. In these situations, it's easy to happen
When riding a bicycle, the pressure points will be concentrated in a certain area.
Then how do we reduce these injuries, we must lock the foot in the shoe to reduce the movement of the foot.
From a biomechanical point of view, most bicycle shoes are as good as the underfoot pads, but the reality is that if the feet are not locked or moving the shoes during exercise may cause injury and inefficiency.
Cyclists need their feet to be a rigid lever. The insoles required for riding must be rigid and meet the requirements of biomechanics.
