On the oscillation of the arch of the foot under the influence of marching in the Red Army

The issue of the functional ability of the feet in connection with the elastic forces acting in them has been repeatedly highlighted in the orthopedic literature and reported at conferences of Kazan orthopedists, who paid special attention to this topic. Prof. Friedland in his article "Oscillation of the height of the arch of the foot under the influence of various moments" (Orthopedics and Traumatology, Vol. 2-3, 1927) summarizes the work on this issue. These works make it possible to establish not only the final result of the influence of various working and rest conditions on the height of the arch of the foot, but also to capture the details of this influence during the very process of pathological exposure. Thus, the dynamics of flat feet in printing workers (Gerasimova, Kochev), the dynamics of fluctuations in the arch of the foot during one working day in workers, employees and students (Kiptenko, Avgustinov and Alekseeva-Kozmina) have been clarified. In my work: "The influence of skiing on the height of the arch of the foot" (Theory and Practice of Physical Culture, 1927, No. 6), the oscillation of the arch of the foot after an acute load and a night's rest was clarified.
