Personally my views are it’s not an ideal test because it’s only really checking arch height, sometimes feet can look flat but it’s just fleshy padding and sometimes people can appear supinated due to their bone structure raising the arch higher 👍🏼

Do you have any scientific paper on it by making comparison with other Standard method.

Hi! It is pretty much one of the major parts of the foot posture index (FPI), so it’s a very simplified version. It doesn’t compare to the full test or a full biomechanics screening (or a podiatrist assessment), but it highlights how the subtalar joint aligns whilst in neutral. It’s no a diagnostic tool but a helpful at home test for a starting point to correct biomechanical issues 👍🏼

@@JCoppockCoach Thanks for your response.. I was looking for a sound method for measuring medial longitudinal Arch..do you suggest me for some of this..i am a beginner..so it seems silly..

I don't know 100% the science behind, based on my experience I also disagree. So refined sugars are normally quickly available after consuming, however your digestion slows so the refined carbs will take longer to get to the intestines for absorption. My thoughts are that yes you can still run off refined carbs, but there will be a delay and you risk flooding the system and causing GI issues. So it's all doable - and best thing is to practice as closely as possible the upcoming plan during training, but I do think as well that performance can quickly become secondary to getting round and completing - so it's something better done in off season where possible if performance is a very important thing to the athlete. Glad it helped :)

You are so welcome! X
