Throw your shoes away.

Run without them.

Profit.

The shoes aren't helping much, because the big outer heel of the asics trainers you are wearing is working as a big lever arm to drive your foot flat and into pronation

A couple of solutions to that: - Wear a Nike Structure Triax or New balance as these have a fairly soft outer heel portion. - Find a good running coach and try to start striking a little less on the heel. I am NOT talking about forefoot running or pose or chi or anyother craziness. Just strike less heavily with the heel.

I'm a podiatrist and specialise in sports injuries and running analysis. You are excessively pronating. I've read most of the comments here and it seems that no-one really knows what they're talking about. A normal foot strike pattern will see you land on your outer heel. You are most definitely not under pronating and I think if you go into a neutral shoe you will put yourself at risk of injury.

he is not under pronating, landing on the outside of the heal (if you are a heal striker) is natural and the initial phase of the pronation movement. this looks quite neutral although it looks like he over pronates a little more on his left foot.

It is natural to land somewhat on the lateral side (outside of the heel) the to roll over more to the inside of the foot to then push off from the big toe. In this case though you seem to land a little too much on the outside of the heel and then fall into the inside. This looks like a lot of load on your ankle. It is difficult to tell from just this clip whether it is the shoes, the knees or the hips......

I call this supination because you land your foot on the outside. I recommend neutral cushioning shoes and Asics are pros at that. For stability shoe, I highly recommend Brooks Adrenaline. I personally like Saucony line of shoes.

Determining whether or not he is pronating by how his foot initially strikes is a misconception. Pronation deals with what the foot and joints do after the foot strike. Watch how the achilles tendon snaps to the inside as his arch collapses and his foot rolls inward after his foot strikes and is finally under load. Also, the noticeable amount of lateral movement within the running gait shows that he is pushing off the inside of the foot toward the outside indicates over pronation.

You have a cross over pattern. Because of that you have to overpronate. Draw a line down your image and watch where your foot lands. You have to strike right out on the lateral edge and collapse over because on this. That's why your getting both answers below for under and over pronation. Its all in your hips buddy!
