Run Screening—Energy Lab

Optimizing performance with a three-speed test

Watch this video filmed at Energy Lab, where they integrate Runeasi in their effort running tests to provide a biomechanical component to performance optimization. 

"Runeasi is the tool for a better running technique"

“For the biomechanical running analysis, we use Runeasi, a new technology to analyze your running movements in an efficient and scientifically substantiated way. This technology was recently developed at KU Leuven. Your strengths and weaknesses are determined on the basis of the analysis; as well as the (possible) left/right asymmetry. How do you move? And how can you prevent injuries by adjusting your running posture? Our coaches provide you with tailor-made exercises to work on your weaker points at home.”

Energy Lab helps people to move more and better. We want to motivate everyone to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is not only top athletes who need a well-founded training schedule. You can also achieve your goal more easily and efficiently as a recreational athlete. We can chart your condition with this running test. All it takes is five clear steps to uncover your strengths and explain where there is still room for improvement:

5 rEASONS TO USE OUR APP

1. Global movement quality

Track and improve your client’s Runeasi running quality. Identify their weakest link with our advanced visualisation.

2. individual recommendations

Get individual training and cueing recommendations to improve your client’s weakest link.

3. Real-time feedback

 

4. Session trends

Learn more about your client’s running quality during daily training. Our session trends show when and where the quality drops with fatigue.

5. Quick comparisons

Compare pre-post data to show intervention effects on the movement quality. 

3 REASONS TO CAPTURE DATA USING THE RUNEASI BELT

1. No motion artifacts. The Runeasi belt is secured tightly against the body and the skin to capture the actual movements of the body’s center of mass. Attaching or clipping the sensor directly to the pants would allow the sensor to wobble from side to side (i.e., measuring the wobbling of the pants, and not the human body.

2.  Easy to standardize the sensor’s positioning. The Runeasi belt makes it easy to consistently position the sensor close to the center of mass. Attaching the sensor directly to the pants would dramatically affect the reliability of the outputs as the height and tightness of the pants will affect the results. Moreover, these pants attachments often shift sideways while running which further decreases the data quality. 

 3. Comfortable to wear.  Hundreds of runners confirmed that they immediately forget about our belt while running. This allows them to move without any restrictions and allows us to capture movements that are representative of a client’s true biomechanics.
