Which New Balance shoes are good for a female runner with low back pain, cross trainers or running shoes?

I do aerobics, weight train, and run on a treadmill, and my lower back hurts all the time. Running shoes seem to make it worse. Anyone have experience with New Balance Cross Trainers?

Which New Balance shoes are good for a female runner with low back pain, cross trainers or running shoes?
Since different styles of running demand different styles of shoes...





The best thing you can do is go down a Running Lab. In fact there's a place by that name; "Running Lab."





They will have you take off your shoes, watch you walk, and even take an imprint of your foot. After doing so, they will spend a few minutes analyzing everything. They will ask you a few questions about your running style and your level of running.





Once they have finished they will direct you to a wall of shoes, that has ALL different brands of shoes on it and say something like; "These are what we recommend for you based on your foot's shape, the way you run, where your foot actually impacts the ground and the width of slimness of your feet.





After they show you the selection, try a few pairs on, take them for a "test run" around the block and once you've found a pair that you like, then get them.





They are GREAT! My spouse has ran a marathon and we are training once again for another one coming up in May. We always go to the running lab. Oh...and the shoes, are sold at a great price too.





I've personally used the Running Lab, along with my spouse and many others, they are FANTASTIC! And they have all kinds of different Brands of shoes. From Nike to New Balance. =)





Hope this helps...oh, the shoes that I picked out ended up being about $80 or so.





Good luck. =)
