Gel in Your Knee Not Your Shoes
from The RunRX Podcast
A deep, practical conversation about running shoes, cushioning, and joint care. We unpack the history from motion-control to maximal cushion, explain why more foam didn't solve running injuries, and how overly-cushy shoes can actually mask impact and lead to harder landings. Learn what really protects your joints (movement, foot strength, consistent prehab/rehab), what “super-shoes” changed for elites and recreational runners, and non-surgical options like viscosupplementation (gel injections) and smart rehab. Actionable takeaways for older runners and anyone who wants to run longer, healthier, and with less pain.▶️ Free 30-Day RunRX Reboot — Skill, Strength & Self-Care (YouTube playlist) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0N-GZ0AosI&list=PLDPcF8ZrDdILC8bYyn2zR-4xvqKRzp2re▶️ Join the RunRX Membership https://runrx.fit/join-runrxstrong📱 App: Search RunRx Academy in Apple App Store or Google Play — join the membership and upload check-ins, gait videos, and get coached directly.
