Background: The popularity of barefoot running or with minimalist shoes has recently increased due to claims of injury prevention, improved running efficiency and better performance compared to run with running shoes. The potential risks and benefits of running barefoot or with minimalist shoes have not yet been clearly defined.Aim: The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of minimalist shoes compared to traditional, or even maximalist shoes , on injuries, running biomechanics, joint pressures and constraints and also on the pain.Methods: The medical databases PEDro, Pubmed and Cochrane library were consulted to gather 6 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for this review. The studies had to include runners without pathology.Resu...
