midstance
English
Noun
midstance (uncountable)
- The point in walking at which the raised leg passes the grounded leg that is supporting the body's weight.
- 2007 April 12, Mike Albo, “Because a Logo Is Not Enough”, in New York Times:
- A camera installed at foot level captured my gait, frame by frame, as I jogged, so the staff could gauge my midstance — when all the weight is on one foot — and determine how much support I needed. Mr. Bergland suggested the Saucony Omni shoe ($100), which is designed for V-shaped feet.
