While logging miles on a treadmill burns the same calories as running outside, your feet and ankles have a fundamentally different experience that we at Clifton Foot & Ankle Center want you to know about. If you switch between the gym and the road, understanding these key differences can help you prevent injuries and train smarter.
When you see a foot with a pronounced, high arch, you might assume it’s a sign of strength and stability. And in some ways, you’d be right.
