Rodger Kram, Ph.D., is an associate professor emeritus in the Integrative Physiology Dept. at the University of Colorado Boulder, where he directs the Locomotion Laboratory. His primary research interest is the biomechanical basis for the energetic cost of locomotion. In this episode of Run with Fitpage, Dr. Kram talks about carbon-plated shoes with our host Vikas Singh.Episode Summary: 00:00 - About this episode02:22 - Welcome Dr. Kram to the show!05:08 - The hype around carbon-plated shoes09:16 - What are the old and new soles, and how are they making a difference?13:40 - What are the additional features of a carbon-plated shoe?25:14 - Do the shoes have something to do with the strike?27:36 - Suitability: Who is this shoe suited for?33:52 - Will it be of help to a 3:30 or 4;30 marathoner?38:58 - Is the shoe equally good for heavier/overweight runners too?42:14 - What is the next magic shoe?48:44 - Dr. Kram's plans going aheadGuest Profile:Rodger earned his B.A. in Biology at Northwestern University, M.S. at Penn State, Ph.D. in Biology from Harvard. He was a post-doc then assistant professor at UC Berkeley until 2000. He served as president of the American Society of Biomechanics in 2008 and was the ASB Borelli award winner for lifetime career accomplishments in 2015. One of his most incredible pride is that all of his Ph.D. students and post-docs have found gainful employment in science, and most are tenure track faculty at major research universities. He has published approximately 100 peer-reviewed scientific articles in prestigious journals, including Nature, Science, and the Proceedings of the Royal Society.About Vikas Singh:Vikas Singh, an MBA from Chicago Booth, worked at Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, APGlobale and Reliance before coming up with an idea of democratizing fitness knowledge and helping beginners get on a fitness journey. Vikas is an avid long-distance runner, building fitpage to help people learn, train, and move better.For more information on Vikas, or to leave any feedback and requests, you can reach out to him via the channels below:Instagram: @vikas_singhhLinkedIn: Vikas SinghGmail: vikas@fitpage.inTwitter: @vikashsingh1010About the Podcast: Run with FitpageThis podcast series is built to bring science and research from the endurance sports industry.

Ep 56: Rodger Kram, PhD, Talks all about Carbon Shoes: Evolution, Science, and Suitability

Rodger Kram PhD is a professor emeritus at the University of Colorado, Boulder. He is one of the most sought-after biomechanists of our generation having published nearly 200 peers. He is also a consultant to Nike and contributed greatly towards the Breaking2 project. Rodgers academic interests are in the biomechanics of human and terrestrial locomotion, including steep running, the effect of cushioning and carbon plated shoes, and human performance. Some of Rodgers recent work:How Biomechanical Improvements in Running Economy Could Break the 2-hour Marathon Barrier.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28255937/A Comparison of the Energetic Cost of Running in Marathon Racing Shoes.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29143929/ The Biomechanics of Competitive Male Runners in Three Marathon Racing Shoes: A Randomized Crossover Studyhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30460454/Uphill Treadmill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8DdJaXnZGgFollow Rodger on Twitter- @RodgerKramInformation on coaching- www.trainright.comKoop’s Social MediaTwitter/Instagram- @jasonkoop
