This video is a gait analysis of one of my patients as she returns to running after rehabbing a metatarsal stress fracture. Supination is a natural part of the gait cycle, but excessive supination—where the foot consistently lands on the outer edge—can reduce shock absorption and increase injury risk. Efficient running relies on a smooth transition between supination and pronation to properly absorb and distribute impact forces: In sprinting, the foot typically lands on the forefoot or midfoot,

Dr. Gaby Go, DPT, Run Coach on Instagram: "When your stride crosses midline (a crossover gait), it’s usually related to limited control of the hip and pelvis. Studies show that excessive hip adduction and pelvic drop during running are strongly associated with crossover. This pattern narrows your base of support, which not only reduces running efficiency but also increases load on the iliotibial band, knees, hips, and lumbar spine. Improving hip and core strength, along with running form drills,
