Is ‘Overpronation’ a problem or not

This gets debated a lot. The views are mixed.

The issues are:

  • yes, pronation is a normal healthy motion
  • yes, there is no definition or consensus as to what is normal and what is overpronation
  • yes, plenty of people overpronate and get no problems
  • yes, other overpronate a small amount and gets lots of problem
  • yes, there are multiple causes of overpronation, so there is going to have to be multiple different treatments. One size is not going to fit all.
  • yes, there are too many who consider themselves experts in this when they have no idea what they are talking about.
  • yes, stick to what the consensus of the preponderance of the research says on the topic and not commentary in social media
