Ghost o Glycerin?

[rosmarc]

Ciao Betta, è impossibile rispondere al tuo quesito senza aver provato prima a fondo entrambi i modelli, però in linea di massima la Glycerin è un modello più strutturato, pesante e ammortizzato della Ghost... se nella versione 12 fosse meno ammortizzata della Ghost sarebbe uno svarione clamoroso da parte di Brooks, conoscendo un po' la tradizione della casa mi pare poco verosimile... comunque lascio la parola ai possessori

Comunque ho preso nuovamente le Glycerin...non ho motivo di cambiere le scarpe.
le ho solo prese più grandi a causa delle vesciche di sangue che mi venivano in cima alle dita

Anch'io usavo a3 (gly11 due paia, vomero etc) peró dopo aver letto il 3d sulle Launch e poi parlato con mio fisio(podista) Launch sará la mia prossima scarpa!

Tomasz, a gran voce chiediamo di sapere il perchè!

secondo il mio fisio (e le testimonianze degli ragazzi minimalisti)
e dopo aver letto tutto qui sotto:

Running gait and running injury expert Jay Dicharry, MPT, says running in shoes with a near-level profile is an ideal situation because it allows the body to run in the most natural position possible without having to compensate too much for how the shoe is trying to dictate the movement of the foot.

“I think very, very close to zero is where things should be, but it will take some time and effort for most runners to get there,” says Dicharry, the director of the SPEED Clinic at the University of Virginia’s Center for Endurance Sport. “But not every single person who runs in a zero-drop shoe is going to choose that for a shoe for running fast and hard in. Maybe it’s a learned effectiveness; Zero-drop shoes haven’t been around long enough for people to get fast performance times in at the elite level.”

Portland, Oregon-based podiatrist and a competitive masters runner Ray McClanahan has also embraced the concept of zero-drop and minimally sloped shoes.

“I’m so pleased to see the industry changing and seeing what our feet can do,” McClanahan says. “I’m all for it. In 17 years of reading all of the medical literature, I can’t come up with a reason our heel should ever be elevated above our forefoot.”

Still, medical experts and running form gurus alike recommend that runners take time to transition to shoes with lower ramp angles that what they’ve been running in, and Dicharry and McClanahan agree. Even if you’ve been running and racing for years, if you don’t conscientiously work on form and strength with minimal running, you could wind up with sore calf muscles, strained Achilles tendons, aching feet or more serious injuries.

While Dicharry recommends that runners transition toward wearing more minimal shoes while also improving strength and flexibility, he admits there is probably a tradeoff between joint health and performance. "In general, with minimal shoes, most runners typically adopt a gait pattern that decreases the loading rate (impact forces) on the feet, knees, ankles, hips, and lower back on every step," Dicharry says. "However, the physics of running with this form are very different that a typical heel-toe pattern. Thus, we suggest that runners take time to transition into the style of running appropriately. Caveat: If someone is in fact going to continue to run with a very prominent heel-strike pattern, we have seen evidence that a number of traditional high-heeled trainers do in fact result in lower loading rates than more minimal designs — again, only if they are running with a prominent heel-strike pattern."

If you’ve been running in traditionally built trainers, changing first to a moderate minimalist shoe that has a 4-8mm heel-toe drop is a good way to start, Dicharry says.
penso che Brooks LAUNCH è la scarpa giusta per cominciare la transizione!
