RUNNING SHOE SELECTION

EVALUATING THE RESPONSE TO INSOLES/FOOTWEAR

A 31-year old recreational runner performed a three-speed screening protocol entailing a one-minute run at 8,10, and 12km/h while running barefoot and in in two shoe conditions. 

Using Runeasi’s automatic report generation feature, we can evaluate the effects of the shoe conditions on his running biomechanics. Speed effects: the overall trends consistently show that his impact magnitude and dynamic instability increase and his impact duration shortens with faster speeds. Shoe effects: We can see that compared to barefoot, in both shoe conditions his impact loading is higher (magnitude) and over a shorter time period (impact duration).

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

Engage your clients through visual gamification and watch how they self-optimize to your verbal cues.

 

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.
