Running

A mechanically efficient runner is more economical. Understanding movement of the whole body in relation to running and the laws of motion are required for efficient and effective running.
 
Combining video and treadmill analysis allows close inspection of body movements and identifies possible effective and ineffective technique and potential causes of injury. Video assessment can also be done outdoors or at a running track. Filming is done from the front, rear and both side using specialist sports biomechanics software. Utilising video-motion analysis with markers that have been specifically placed allows data to be assessed frame by frame. DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE utilises world leading motion analysis software to best achieve this.
 
In conjunction with a biomechanical screening this can be further optimized to assist in maximising efficiency. Any individual factors compromising performance can be identified and appropriately addressed.
 

We provide a unique analysis that:

  • Utilises world leading motion analysis software.
  • Assesses an individuals running mechanics.
  • Recommends person specific programs to assist in the management of an ongoing problem in conjunction with other health professionals and coaches.
  • Supplies a DVD report of  running assessment and analysis 

Subsequent running analysis is highly recommended.

Please bring the following for the running assessment:*
  •    Current running shoes (racing flats if using)
  •    Orthotics (if using)
  •    Shorts/tights
  •    Running top/singlet/crop-top
 
*For complex histories/cases it would be recommended for an initial in rooms consultation to obtain a full history  and objective assessment prior to the running assessment.
 
 

Running Retraining

 
Once the assessment has been completed, if there is a recommendation for developing your running technique as part of your injury management and injury prevention program, sessions will be planned out and organised.
