“…All participants performed a total of 10 stages for a maximal treadmill exercise test with the first stage starting by walking at 2.74 km/h and gradient set at 10% (Jefry, Hasan, Azhan, Misnon, Azidin & Ismail, 2019). The gradient and speed were increased every three minutes.…”

“…A high-speed camera (Olympus TG-5) was placed 4-meter away paralleled from the treadmill to obtain a sagittal view of the running movements (Jefry, Hasan, Azhan, Misnon, Azidin & Ismail, 2019) and the video footage was set at 240 frames per second. Kinematics parameters measurements which included ground contact time (GCT), stride length (SL), swing time (ST), and heel strike (HS) were taken during the last 30 seconds of every 3 minutes' stages of the treadmill running test which is adopted from the study by (Stickford, Chapman, Johnston, & Stager, 2015).…”

This study was conducted to determine running kinematics while using compression socks (CS) and smooth socks (SS) among 16 recreational runners. They were required to complete a maximal treadmill test with two different running sock conditions (smooth and compression). All kinematic parameters (ground contact time, heel strike, stride length and swing time) were reported in an average of the four stages of Bruce protocol. Results showed more significant correlations (p<0.05) among the kinematic variables in the compression socks condition as compared to the smooth socks. In conclusion, wearing compression socks improves movement kinematics while running may be due to the enriched somatosensory information received by the foot.
