Clinicians, podiatrists and researchers are quantifying foot posture and movement in numerous speed conditions and populations. Common variables to assess foot posture/movement area unit the Foot Posture Index (FPI-6), tendon of Achilles angle (β), rear foot angle (γ) and longitudinal arch angle (LAA). These variables were oft employed in clinical and biomechanical settings. This study aimed to work out the link between the biomechanical variables (β, γ & LAA) in static and dynamic conditions and therefore the clinically used FPI-6 and their redundancy. Forty participants performed bipedal standing, over ground walking and running trials. Manual assessment information (FPI-6), kinematic information and ground reaction forces were collected. distinct biomechanical variables (β, γ & LAA) were calculated at numerous time points (e.g. heel strike).
