Zusammenfassung
Laufen zählt zu den bekanntesten Sportarten der Welt und ist darüber hinaus die Grundlage für die Ausübung vieler weiterer Sportarten. Dieses Kapitel soll einerseits einen Überblick über die biomechanischen Grundlagen des Laufens geben und näher erläutern, welche kinematischen und dynamischen Besonderheiten dem hochautomatisierten Laufzyklus zugrunde liegen und andererseits einen Einblick in die Laufschuhentwicklung der letzten Jahre sowie in die Leistungsdiagnostik beim Laufen geben.
Dieser Beitrag ist Teil der Sektion Sportbiomechanik, herausgegeben vom Teilherausgeber Hermann Schwameder, innerhalb des Handbuchs Sport und Sportwissenschaft, herausgegeben von Arne Güllich und Michael Krüger.
