G8 Performance Pro Series 2620 Insoles reduce the risk of injury by delivering netballers completely customizable support via G8's uniquely flexible arch pieces (5 height options, and 11 position options) - greatly reducing stress on the joints.
Leonardo da Vinci said, “The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.”
When we study the engineering of the foot, we discover that it’s designed to move dynamically. But – even the best netball shoes by omissions in their design will over time, inhibit the foot’s natural movement.
This inhibition goes on to cause muscles to shrink, natural gait to change, and other parts of the body to unnaturally accommodate the force on your feet.
2620’s inside your netball shoes encourage the foot’s natural movement – that is, the amazing feat of engineering our bodies were born with – and help prevent common injuries and ailments by strengthening the feet.
Strong feet mean more power, stability and endurance.
Think about it: to lift a heavier weight, you need to make your biceps stronger. To run an endurance marathon, you need to strengthen your calves and quads.
To harness the explosive power of your feet, you need to strengthen them.
Did you know the human foot has 29 muscles associated with it? That’s a lot of muscles to strengthen.
Improving foot strength can help prevent injuries, improve balance and stability, and enhance your overall netball performance.
But exercising your feet doesn’t mean running around in the latest technology sports shoe. There are plenty of hi-tech shoes on the market, even for netball… but our feet were actually born for the opposite.
Our feet are biomechanically designed to be free and move dynamically – the opposite of being constricted inside a rigid shoe.
Even the best shoes can negatively impact and even injure your feet.
G8 Performance 2620 insoles are specially designed to strengthen your feet while you are wearing shoes. They have been created to allow your foot to move within the shoe as if it was bare and free.
Walk a few steps barefoot and observe your feet as you walk. They contract, then expand lengthwise, then splay (spread out a little at the toes) and then slightly pronate (they roll inward slightly to act as a shock absorber for your body).
Wearing 2620’s actively exercises and strengthens your forefoot, allowing it to flex inside your shoe as it’snaturally supposed to. (In contrast, most other insoles and orthotics are designed to limit foot movement.)
They’re also fully customizable. Over time as your feet become stronger, you’re able to adjust the insole to keep improving your foot strength – like a weightlifter adding heavier weights to their bar.
Stronger feet means more power, improved performance and increased stamina.
