Strength training alone will not lead to improved gait patterns.

While strength is an essential part of any runner’s routine and can be considered the “hardware” of movement 💪, it is the motor pattern or “software” that ultimately controls movement quality.

Running is a coordinated motor skill 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️. Let’s start treating it like one.

There’s certainly no one-size-fits-all solution, but it’s impossible to ignore the role of running technique in both running related injury and performance. If you’re a clinician or coach working with runners, investing in your ability to assess and improve your athletes’ gait patterns is key 🔑.

With the right approach, gait training can be a game changer! The good news? We’ve been refining our system for helping athletes achieve big things, and we can’t wait to share 👊.
