Foot pain and injuries can thwart even the most experienced
athletes. Foot expert John Vonhof discredits the conventional
wisdom of "no pain, no gain," teaching instead how the interplay
of anatomy, biomechanics, and footwear can lead to happy or
hurting feet. With a focus on individual and team care, this
fifth edition covers everything that an active person needs for
immediate and long-term foot care solutions. Vonhof's advice
comes not only from his own experience but also from many foot
experts and endurance athletes. He offers numerous solutions for
each problem, as there is no one best solution — different
treatments work for different feet. This comprehensive resource
covers footwear basics, prevention, and treatments along with
clear diagrams, photos, and charts that demonstrate techniques
and solutions. If it can happen to a foot, it's covered in this
book.
