Resistance Trainer
Pro TR
I like these shoes a lot. Two key features that stand out are the spring and the shape of the sole.
The sole, as you can see in the above photo, curves up at the heel. Upon contact with the ground it feels like my heel and my midsole are contacting at the same time. This spreads the load across my foot rather than it being concentrated on just the heel. It seems to lessen the impact of running.
The curved sole shape rocks the foot forward smoothly during the transition from heel to toe.
The spring is a firm plastic D-shape insert that compresses on impact and helps propel you forward on take off.
The shoe is light weight and very comfortable. Off-road performance is well and the tread is aggressive enough to handle power sprints up dirt hills.
The feeling of the rocking horse shape is very odd at first, but once I started running it felt natural very quickly. I was able to run farther and with less fatigue than I normally would have been able.
