I just joined track and wonder what kind of women's shoes i should get for the sprint and that I can wear for practice that also involves a lot of running around. Also wondering if anyone had suggestions on where/what spikes I should get and how to pick them.
If you have any other suggestions about track they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Answer
Good shoes are absolutely key to avoiding injuries while running. Every person's foot is different, and if you pick the wrong shoe for your foot you're going to start seeing ankle, knee, calf, thigh, hip, and shin problems. Everybody runs differently and you need to find a shoe that matches your running style that's why I don't strongly suggest buying Adidas, New Balance, occasionally Nike. Because even though the shoes look cool they are made with a one-size-fits-all format and have a very neutral sole, and also, just because a shoe is comfy doesn't mean its good for you. I suggest going with a minimalist shoe, if you don't know what that is picture a pair of track spikes without spikes, these shoes are very light and comply more with your natural running style helping you avoid any more leg injuries.

Minimalist shoes will also help prepare your legs for running is spikes so that the transition isn't quite as painful. Really, any spikes will do. They tend to be pretty expensive, around $80-100 but they're very durable and will last you for awhile. Try looking here: http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/?l=shop,pwp,c-1+100701/f-10001+12001+4294966968+4294967132

Selecting a good pair of running shoes comes down to pronation. This term simply refers to the degree your foot rotates toward the inside when you run. There are two kinds of runners: One who has too much pronation (whose foot rotates too much while running) and one who has insufficient pronation (whose foot barely rotates inward when running). The best way to get a pair that is right for you is by visiting a shoe store that emphasizes selling running shoes. These stores usually have a knowledgeable staff that will even let you try running around in the shoe. The employees at the stores are usually very helpful and knowledgeable and will help you pick out a shoe that is right for you. Hope that helps!

Who else had torn knee ligaments and what can I do to make them feel better?




Wondering


I have two torn ligaments in my knee. along with a Bucket-handle tear.

When my knee goes out it feels like I popped it out of place even though I really didn't. What can I do to get it back "into place", so to speak?
I have no insurance. i was told i should see a physical therapist and maybe get surgery, but that is not possible now. I am looking for more home remedies for temporary relief.



Answer
Because women have wider hips, the upper-leg bone of a woman enters the knee at a greater angle, which twists the knee. This makes women more vulnerable to certain types of kneecap injuries, such as chondromalacia (in which the smooth layer of cartilage that coats the end of the thighbone becomes roughened or cracked), as well as problems with the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).

if your knee problems are the result of overuse, lack of use (or "weekend warrior syndrome"), or improper training rather than injury, you can use the strategies and home remedies

Stay trim. Being overweight stresses all the joints of the body, but carrying around those extra pounds is particularly tough on the knees, because with every step, you exert on your knees a force equal to one-and-a-half times your body weight. When you run, the force is five times your weight. An extra 20, 30, 40, or more pounds of body weight (usually from body fat) can really stress the knees.
Avoid "knee-busting" activities. Deep knee bends and squats may feel like great fitness boosters, but they're too hard on the knees. So is kneeling, especially on hard surfaces.
Buy the right shoes. Wear the lowest heel possible. The body can tolerate a heel of about one inch; higher heels throw the body forward and stress the knees.
Look at your feet. A common cause of knee problems is overpronation, or rolling inward of the foot. A certain amount of pronation is normal, but too much can cause knee problems because it throws the knee out of alignment.
and most importantly drink a lot of water it helps ease the friction and do calves stretching and hip stretching, it makes your muscles ready to carry more tension off your knees.

hope i helped
