Objective: to understand how foot type and foot orthotics may influence the electromyographic (EMG) activity of the TFL. Methods: A total of 41 healthy recreational runners (mean age 32.66 \u00b1 3.51) were recruited for the present cross-sectional study, categorizing them as neutral (NEUg = 15), supinators (SUPg = 15), and pronators (PROg = 11) according to the foot postural index, over a period of 11 months. The EMG of the TFL was measured using a surface electromyograph device while they ran on a treadmill at a constant speed of 9 km\/h for 3 min, randomly using supinating (SUP), pronating (PRO), or heel lift (TAL) insoles of 5 mm each one, compared to the baseline condition (SIN). The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was performed to check the reproducibility of the tests, pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni adjustment were made, and to test the differences between measurements, the Friedman test was performed. Results: The Shapiro\u2013Wilk test indicated a normal distribution of the sample (p &gt; 0.05). Almost all obtained results showed a \u201cperfect reproducibility\u201d close to one; a significant statistical increase was observed in the mean EMG values from NEUg (87.58 \u00b1 4.81 mV) to SUPg (97.17 \u00b1 4.3 mV) (p &lt; 0.05) during SIN+ basal condition. Additionally, there was a statistical reduction from SIN (87.58 \u00b1 4.81 mV) vs. PRO (74.69 \u00b1 3.77 mV) (p &lt; 0.001) in NEUg and from SIN (97.17 \u00b1 4.3 mV) vs. PRO (90.96 \u00b1 4 mV) (p &lt; 0.001) in SUPg. Conclusions: The SUPg exhibited increased activation of TFL fibers compared to the NEUg, likely due to the biomechanical demands associated with a supinated foot type. In contrast, the use of PRO appeared to promote relaxation of the TFL fibers by inducing internal rotation of the lower limb. Based on these preliminary results from a cross-sectional study in a healthy population, it is recommended to assess foot type when addressing ITBS and to consider the use of PRO as a complementary therapeutic strategy alongside conventional treatments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jfmk10030237","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,24]],"date-time":"2025-06-24T04:37:21Z","timestamp":1750739841000},"page":"237","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Iliotibial Band Behavior Assessed Through Tensor Fasciae Latae Electromyographic Activity with Different Foot Orthoses in Recreational Runners According to Foot Type: A Cross-Sectional Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7071-9860","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ruben","family":"Sanchez-Gomez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Physiotherapy and Podiatry, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Instituto de Investigaci\u00f3n Sanitaria Hospital Cl\u00ednico San Carlos (IdISSC), 28040 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7839-4789","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"\u00c1lvaro G\u00f3mez","family":"Carri\u00f3n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Physiotherapy and Podiatry, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5651-8376","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ismael","family":"Ortu\u00f1o Soriano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Physiotherapy and Podiatry, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Instituto de Investigaci\u00f3n Sanitaria Hospital Cl\u00ednico San Carlos (IdISSC), 28040 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-9849-3904","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paola","family":"Sanz Wozniak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Physiotherapy and Podiatry, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Cl\u00ednica Pododin\u00e1mica, 28005 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8606-1415","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ignacio","family":"Zaragoza Garc\u00eda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nursing Department, Faculty of Nursing, Physiotherapy and Podiatry, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Grupo Invecuid, Instituto de Investigaci\u00f3n Sanitaria imas12, 28041 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3699-7984","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fatma Ben","family":"Waer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Laboratory Education, Motricit\u00e9, Sport et Sant\u00e9, LR19JS01, High Institute of Sport and Physical Education of Sfax, University of Sfax, Sfax 3029, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7424-7741","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cristina Iona","family":"Alexe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education and Sports Performance, \u201cVasile Alecsandri\u201d University of Bac\u0103u, 600115 Bac\u0103u, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6396-761X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dan Iulian","family":"Alexe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical and Occupational Therapy, Faculty of Movement, Sports and Health, Sciences, \u201cVasile Alecsandri\u201d University of Bac\u0103u, 600115 Bac\u0103u, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"47","DOI":"10.1080\/00913847.1981.11711077","article-title":"A Survey of Overuse Running Injuries","volume":"9","author":"Clement","year":"1981","journal-title":"Physician Sportsmed."},{"key":"ref_2","first-page":"44","article-title":"Conservative Treatment of Iliotibial Band Syndrome in Runners: Are We Targeting the Right Goals?","volume":"54","author":"Friede","year":"2022","journal-title":"Phys.
