3D biomechanical running gait analysis service for running technique advice & running injuries. Led by running physios @chrisbramah @leehphysio @athletematters
Talking all things carbon fibre with @oliw_physio
Performance gains, mechanisms & possible consequences of their over use.
Thought I’d share some thoughts & some of the ideas discussed for @BritTri Performance Learning Week. 👇🏻👇🏻

Study by Christopher Bramah, et al demonstrating certain running styles can predispose one to injury. A drop in the pelvis (fig 2), or an increased forward lean (fig 1) lead to 80% increase in injuries. @chrisbramah @DrNiamhGill @leehphysio Read more: https://t.co/KYZfTvWfM6
Can gait retraining improve kinematics & clinical outcomes in runners with PFP?
We found a single session (⬆️ step rate) results in improvements as early as 4 weeks.
Including:
⬇️ Hip Add, CPD & Knee Flx
⬇️ Pain: 6.2 to 1/10 NRS
⬆️ Weekly run distance

In case you missed it, our @SalfordUni researchers at the @SalfordUni’s Running Performance Clinic (@UOSRun) have developed a way to retrain athletes at risk of injury due to their current running technique! Read all the #SalfordSuccess about it here: https://t.co/9Y56wJcNHh
Really pleased to see this appear in the inbox today 😁
Accepted workshop for @IOCprevConf
“Are running mechanics limiting the development of the endurance athlete?”

ICYMI - was asked to repost this calf strength program for runners / triathletes.
Try x 2 per week as a circuit and add resistance when easy. Using a rucksack with books/ sandbags is an easy way to increase weight.

Can increasing step frequency improve running economy? A 10 day training program with ⬆️ cadence resulted in:
• 11% ⬇️ oxygen consumption
• 5.1% ⬇️ heart rate
Maybe gait retraining can improve running economy after all... 🧐 🏃♀️ 🏃♂️ https://t.co/H7InAm7E73
@_AliceCarter_ Make sure you rehab it well too! Good quality rehabilitation can help to make sure you minimise the risk of further injury or compensations 😀
@agalvin72@MayneReport Always best to make sure you’ve gone through a full rehabilitation program for full recovery. Otherwise I’d get your injury checked by a specialist to make sure you’re managing the injury appropriately 😃
