Additional information
This study was the first to demonstrate a positive injury prevention role for foot orthoses during exercise training. This systematic approach to target at-risk trainees for intervention has been implemented across the Royal Navy, affecting some 3000 trainees per annum, and has been used to inform related British Army research, leading to the implementation of a training risk reduction model. This paper forms an integral part of the underpinning research for our impact case study on reducing the impact of injury and illness in challenging environments.
