@Derek_Pamu @Flawless_Physio @Docorange1 @colingriffin @jenxu_atc @MichaelRathleff @afdlempke @rwilly2003 With that being said.. you could modify the model to have a more true two-axis MTPJ by having an axis across the first and second mets then from the second to fifth mets. Would get you slightly closer.

@Derek_Pamu @Flawless_Physio @Docorange1 @colingriffin @jenxu_atc @MichaelRathleff @afdlempke @rwilly2003 We didn't specifically isolate to the 1st MTP, just used what we called a 'sliding joint center' that treats the MTPJ like a hinge w/o a fixed joint center. https://t.co/1U2MVCaI7k

Had a blast hopping on the DoR Podcast with Jen getting to peel back the curtain a bit on what we think about and solve for here at Brooks. Thank you @DoctorsRunning for having us!

[Doctors of Running @DoctorsRunning]

In our latest podcast, we talk with Jennifer Sumner and @edayrun, biomechanists at @brooksrunning. They give us an inside look at how Brooks' unique approach to biomechanical testing and research in shoe development

Happy National Biomechanics Day from the team here at Brooks!

@Derek_Pamu @BertecHQ @AmSocBiomech just give it the good 'ol *-1 ;)

Opening for an RII position! If you obsess over the granular details of running shoes, love asking "why?", applying scientific insights to product creation, and just love any and all things running - please apply!

[Evan Day @edayrun]

@jgault13 Course designer definitely an auto-racing/F1 fan..

[Evan Day @edayrun]

Brooks shoes so soft they make great pillows ;)

This is Blu. She's had a long day of being tiny and cute. Very grateful she found somewhere to rest her head. 12/10 moving is now illegal

[Evan Day @edayrun]

Also important to note that CFP is a very blanket term... lots of varying geometries, upper fit & materialization, etc. between shoes that have CFP's.

[Adam Tenforde @AdamTenfordeMD]

Sharing an interesting observation of #stressfracture in #carbonfiberplate shoes in #runners. It's an open access paper in @SportsMedicineJ that I hope will facilitate dialogue on how to keep our runners safe while enjoying the sport!

We have FOUR positions open on the RRT:
1-2) Summer internships for Perception and Performance
3) Senior Researcher, Performance
4) Senior Manager
If you are passionate about applying perceptual and biomechanical insights to running product, apply away :)

@KarlZelik Depends how involved you are. Are you a subject matter expert and in the weeds with them day to day, or there to guide and ask the right questions so they find their own direction, a more "in the business" manager.
FWIW I'm 'in the weeds' with 2, and can't imagine having over 4-5

[Evan Day @edayrun]

@BiomechMax @johnharry76 😱

[Evan Day @edayrun]

@johnharry76 @BiomechMax And definitely some phenomenal metal music they have created :)

@BiomechMax Ain't no one got time to spell banana when you can just plug in 4011

[Evan Day @edayrun]

Revel 6 and Levitate 6 now both out! Had a lot of fun working with the Product Team on getting those new sidewall geometries (+entire shoe system) dialed to ensure we hit bmech and perception metrics.

[Evan Day @edayrun]

@EmilyMatijevich https://t.co/zb2p35bUEc

easy to analyze metrics that define the types, depending on how granular you want to go.

[Evan Day @edayrun]

@EmilyMatijevich As pointed out, can't expect blanket claims to uncover mechanisms for all. But acceptance of WHAT matters is the next step, not just breaking into 'responders and non-responders' but what make them that category? I personally like runner types as a good path to explore (2/n)
