Runners’ improve fastest by focusing on just a few running form goals at a time.
That is why we have 3 levels. Runners move to a new level after reaching goals of their current level.
This is the most reliable way to run faster and longer with great form – and with a much reduced risk of injury.
If we see anything sub-optimal in the videos, we provide straightforward drills and videos to help develop perfect form.
See your runners transform in just weeks, with more stamina and more power in their strides.
Foot Angle is simply the angle the foot makes with the ground at the instant when it first makes ground contact. Foot angle determines braking force, ground-contact time (duration of stance), running velocity, ground impact forces, and the risk of certain injuries.
The angle of the leg at ground contact is also known as “Strike Angle” or “Shank Angle at Touch down”. It describes the angle between the shank and a line drawn perpendicular to the ground at the point of impact between the foot and ground. It is a critical element of form because it determines the amount of “sweep”. “Sweep” is the movement from maximum forward extension of the foot to the strike angle at touch down.
Step rate is the number of steps taken during each minute of running. It ultimately determines your runners speed. Step rate also has a big effect on the foot angle.
A too-slow step rate can decrease running velocity and increases the likelihood of a runner being a pronounced heel-striker. An overly fast step rate can actually decrease step length and thus slow down runners as well.
Posture is simply the alignment of head, neck, thorax, and hips with respect to each other. Good posture reduces fatigue and helps to make your runners more economical.
Lean determines whether propulsive forces will primarily be directed up and forward, straight up, or up and backward. An overly forward lean decreases the amount of critical vertical propulsive force and actually shortens step length.
A too-small or negative lean means that the runners body is too straight or tilted backward and thus that not enough forward propulsive force is being created.
The angle at which arms are bent at the elbows impacts running performance significantly. Arms that are not adequately flexed at the elbows tend to slow cadence, while arms that are properly flexed at the elbows reinforce high cadence.
We also check for excessive arm forward or backward-movement.
Have your clients upload the videos or shoot the videos for them. We analyze a video from each side in slow motion and one at natural speed. Here are some easy instructions or watch us record a video here.
Receive your running form report with clear feedback including pictures for each metric and runner.
We provide exercise recommendations, exercise videos and an exercise plan you can integrate into an overall training schedule.
Coaches and runners love us
These online run form reports by Movaia save so much time!
Now I can do run form analysis for my athletes more often without compromising on coaching time.
The reports are detailed, visualize runners’ form and help them improve faster.
Quite an eye opener to see the photos with the angles added. I like the steps to improve. Easy and clear to understand
I did two running form analyses before and the results were very similar – but I paid a lot more…
Great to get faster than ever at the age of 49 – after more than 15 years of training! Running ist fun again, without the pain. I love that it feels like floating. I’m also keen on the possibility to check my running form whenever I want to – never stop improving!
