Observational Running Analysis

Balanced biomechanics, form, and technique are key factors to running faster and more efficiently with less risk of injury. Correct running form ensures that we create and maintain linear momentum, reduce joint impact, minimize energy loss and maximize efficiency and economy.

We commonly see people who either want to be more efficient in their running, or who are plagued by an injury that’s making what should be enjoyable an absolute nightmare.

It’s also really good planning to get your biomechanics and technique checked by an expert ahead of any training plan to ward off any impending issue, and to inform a running prehabilitation prescription.

We have two Observational Running Assessments – the only difference between Levels 1 and 2 is your current level of fitness and running experience. Either way you will be working with a Sports Therapist and Strength & Conditioning Coach with advanced training in running biomechanics, running re-education and personal coaching.

Running Coaching & Development in Bedfordshire

We can work with you to strip down and correct your technique over progressive running development sessions. We do this with the application of cues, running drills and corrective exercises in 1:1 focused sessions specifically for you and your goals. We draw on our knowledge of injury mechanisms, movement patterns and rehabilitation to provide you with bite-size chunks of homework to deliver effective change.

Running development sessions are a great way for any runner to boost their running confidence. The sessions are focused and fun, and will provide you with guidance and support in the pursuit of your running goals.

Sessions are suitable for brand new runners, hobby runners and track athletes alike.

Personalised Planning in Bedfordshire

There are two components that will help you achieve your running goals; personal investment and good programming. A good training plan is completely personalised and will take into consideration your lifestyle factors, base training, and goals. It should be part of a programme – whether that’s a higher objective or ‘just’ to maximise your running enjoyment and keep you running safely, for longer.

You can pay hundreds of pounds for bespoke planning but we want to help you move easily from one phase of running to another, as part of your overall programme. Price includes Zoom consult.

"Running analysis helped me identify my weaknesses, and the exercises I was given quickly helped to sort these out and correct the imbalances. Highly recommend."
