The angle at which your sole lands has much to do with whether you excessively pronate or supinate. The lower foot tends to supinate by angling to the outside edge, and the higher foot tends to pronate by striking on the inside edge. Alternatively, people may supinate the foot throughout the entire stance phase to push off from the lateral aspect of the foot and avoid or reduce weight bearing through the hallux. |
