Abstract

Load carriage training resulted in substantial injuries among military recruits, particularly in their lower limbs and feet. This study analysed the phase-specific effects of load carriage with three different material insoles on GRF, angle, and moment of ankle and knee joints during running with military boots. Eighteen male participants were recruited for this study from a local veteran club. A two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted to determine statistical effects. The vertical active peak in the ortholite insole group was significantly lower than the control (p = 0.002) and cork insoles (p = 0.002) with the unloading condition. The control group's ankle dorsiflexion moment was greater than that of the ortholite and cork insoles at zero (p = 0.001) and 15 kg load carriage (p = 0.001) (46-83% stance). The findings show that the ortholite insole and cork insole improve cushioning performance in the lower limbs and stability of military boots compared with the control insole.

不同缓冲鞋垫对负重跑步时踝关节和膝关节生物力学的影响

负重训练导致新兵严重受伤，特别是下肢和脚部受伤。本研究分析了三种不同材质鞋垫承载对穿着军靴跑步时踝关节和膝关节GRF、角度和力矩的阶段特异性影响。研究人员从当地一家退伍军人俱乐部招募了18名男性参与者。采用双向重复测量方差分析(ANOVA)来确定统计效应。在卸载条件下，正长石鞋垫组的垂直活动峰显著低于对照组(p = 0.002)和软木鞋垫组(p = 0.002)。对照组在零(p = 0.001)和15 kg负重(p = 0.001)(46-83%站位)时踝关节背屈力矩大于正长石和软木鞋垫组。结果表明，与对照鞋垫相比，正长石鞋垫和软木鞋垫改善了军靴的下肢缓冲性能和稳定性。
