| Comparison of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate(EVA),Thermoplastic urethane (TPU) and Multifoam on running economy and perceived comfortTimepoint: Normal shoe (day1), EVA (day2), TPU(day3), Multifoam (day4) the runners will run for twenty minutes according to their capacity and parameters will be measured | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Comfort of the footwear will be checked using visual analogue scale for assessment of the shoe comfortTimepoint: 1) Baseline measurements will be taken before warm up (pre test ) 2)Second readings will be taken after a twenty minute run (post test) in a prefabricated insole, custom foot orthosis composed of EVA(6mm),TPU(6mm), Multifoam(6mm) ;Hear Rate, Respiratory Rate will be measured using fingertip pulse oximeter.Timepoint: 1) Baseline measurements will be taken before warm up (pre test ) 2)Second readings will be taken after a twenty minute run (post test) in a prefabricated insole, custom foot orthosis composed of EVA(6mm),TPU(6mm), Multifoam(6mm) ;Lactate accumulation,Urea will be measured by using venous blood sample through Venous Blood Gas Analysis. Timepoint: 1) Baseline measurements will be taken before warm up (pre test ) 2)Second readings will be taken after a twenty minute run (post test) in a prefabricated insole, custom foot orthosis composed of EVA(6mm),TPU(6mm), Multifoam(6mm) ;Metabolic equivalent of task (MET) will be calculated by the preset calculator of the treadmillTimepoint: 1) Baseline measurements will be taken before warm up (pre test ) 2)Second readings will be taken after a twenty minute run (post test) in a prefabricated insole, custom foot orthosis composed of EVA(6mm),TPU(6mm), Multifoam(6mm) ;Rate of Perceived exertion will be measured using Borg Scale for RPE.
