BALANCE
Foot Asymmetry

Load Distribution

Comparing total cumulative pressure between left and right feet reveals loading imbalances that may indicate gait asymmetry.

Right Foot Load
Interpretation

The left foot bears 4% more of the total load. This falls within a normal range. Minor asymmetry is common and typically not cause for concern.


Footstrike Follow-Through

Actual vs Recommended Path

Lektern tracks the pressure path from first heel contact through toe-off, then compares it against the recommended biomechanical trajectory for a smoother, more efficient stride.

Recommendation

Midfoot lateral shift suggests mild overpronation. Consider stability shoes or a guided strengthening program for the posterior tibialis to keep the push-off path closer to centerline.


WEAR
Shoe Wear Indicator

Remaining Shoe Life

Based on insole wear depth patterns, Lektern estimates how much usable cushioning and support life remains in the shoe.

Cushioning has degraded unevenly under the medial forefoot. Continue using for easy runs but consider rotating in a fresh pair for speed work and long runs.


SHOE
Shoe Suggestion

Suggested Shoe Profile

Based on this sample scan, the runner shows mild midfoot drift and forefoot loading without a severe stability flag. The best match is supportive enough to keep the stride centered while still allowing a natural push-off.

Shoe Category
Stable Neutral
Stable neutral shoe with wide base and sidewall guidanceWIDE BASESIDEWALL GUIDEFOOT STAYS CENTERED

Wide platform, light sidewall guidance, no heavy correction.

Helps center mild midfoot drift
Preserves smooth heel-to-toe transition
Heel-to-Toe Drop
4-6mm
Low heel-to-toe drop shoe with a 4 to 6 millimeter height differenceH (HEEL)T (TOE)4-6mmDROP = H - TMODEST HEEL HEIGHT, NOT ZERO-DROP

A modest heel height difference for midfoot and forefoot-biased loading.

Encourages landing closer under the hips
Easier transition than zero-drop shoes
Fit Note

A full stability shoe may be more correction than this scan calls for. Start with a stable-neutral daily trainer and only move toward stronger stability if the lateral drift or load asymmetry increases across repeat scans.


Injury Risk Insights

Risk Assessment

Lektern converts pressure concentration, asymmetry, and follow-through drift into practical injury signals so athletes can adjust training before discomfort becomes a pattern.

Metatarsalgia

Elevated
72
Risk score / 100
Primary Signal
Forefoot pressure concentration

Repeated loading through the second and third metatarsal heads indicates increased irritation risk during speed work and downhill running.

Plantar Fasciitis

Moderate
48
Risk score / 100
Primary Signal
Heel-to-midfoot transition

Heel load is controlled, but the midfoot shift suggests added tension through the arch during late stance.

Shin Splints

Low
31
Risk score / 100
Primary Signal
Asymmetry and toe-off timing

Current left-right load difference is visible but not severe enough to suggest a major tibial stress pattern.

Next

Primary watchpoint: forefoot loading. The scan suggests the athlete should keep intensity controlled while improving midfoot stability and re-checking pressure distribution after the next training block.
