Cardio-Metabolic Analysis
Cardio-metabolic analysis is the testing and analyzing an individual’s metabolic processes through Resting Metabolic Rate and VO2 Max Testing. These metabolic tests provide a wealth of insight regarding a person’s dietary, fitness, and lifestyle needs.
3D Run Gait Analysis
3D Run Gait Analysis
What is included in the 3D Analysis?
Runner readiness assessment to analyze runners flexibility, strength and stability
Identification of previous training history and breakdown of injury history
Running form analysis on treadmill with real time 3D motion capture technology
Form coaching during running to promote efficiencies and decrease injury risk
Program of strengthening, form drills, and running workouts to Improve efficiency and long term durability
Follow up to confirm improvement in form and further coaching if needed
Performance in Science offers the latest in 3D Gait Analysis, a service typically only available to professional athletes! We go beyond 2D video gait analysis to get you the information and results you need! With a Runner's Movement Screen and 3D gait analysis, we can figure out what really matters, give you the exercises that really count, and make quick and important changes to your form that can save you time and get you back to running right away.
What to expect from the 3D Analysis?
Part 1: runner readiness assessment
We will perform a movement screening to assess for range of motion and motor control deficiencies
Part 2: Runner 3D gait analysis
(you will only run for a max of 10min during the entire process)
1) 3D markers placed on your feet, legs, hips, and back
2) Running warm up followed by the running analysis capture
3) Gait cueing and reanalysis based off baseline analysis
4) Review of gait analysis
5) Review of gait retraining home program
- The Run DNA Way -
A RunDNA gait analysis starts with a Runner Readiness Assessment to identify flexibility and strength deficits. Running form is a big part of healthier and faster running, but runners need more. Limitations in flexibility or strength may determine what types of cues or training plan you can do to maximize results.
After the Runner Readiness Assessment, athletes do a gait analysis and are put into a gait category with specific programs. Each category’s program consists of a gait retraining program with walk/run and graded feedback. Adapting to the new form with a gradual approach has been shown to produce better results that last.
Finally, all of the results and programs are put into the RunDNA app where you get detailed instructions on exactly what you need to do. There are even videos to explain drills and exercises. You can sync you wearable to get accurate training load data, showing you how to avoid common mistakes in your run training.
