Run gait and form is one of the most overlooked technical skills for endurance athletes to develop. Just like swim stroke, mental disconnect and poor form habits can be ingrained when an athlete lacks technical direction. Optimal-form running is of utmost importance due to the repetition of the movement and the weight bearing nature of the sport. Gains in efficiency will open many athletic doors, improving workout consistency and ability to absorb increases in intensity and volume.
The Sustainable Athlete looks first at a runner’s chassis to identify potential areas of structural compromise. An in-depth video gait analysis is completed and reviewed with the individual. Frame-by-frame video dissection allows the coach and athlete to pinpoint focus areas for conserving energy while reducing the risk of injury. A coach will prescribe drills for improving future run training. Follow-up review is available and encouraged for evaluation of longer-term gait development.
