Gait Analysis on a TrueForm Runner | Ep 117 | Movement Fix Monday | Dr. Ryan DeBell 

Love the research you’ve addressed along with the key terms needed to understand the benefits on our runnings strides that this machine can help improve! Thank you!

Chris: "So yeah 7:30 is probably your conversation pace" Ryan: 'ppphhheeeaaaaa ffffffffaaaa yes ppphhhhhh pppphhhhhhhhhh'

Fantastic channel

Very good vid!

I tried one of these the other day, did 30 min and it felt far more hard work than a traditional treadmill, I came off soaked and felt like I had worked far harder than 45 min on a traditional treadmill. I felt a bit of pulling on my calf's, If your new to these then I found you really have to concentrate as you can start drifting into a high pace just by leaning forward a bit more

Analysis is great and of course can have great value. However, I have learnt over the years that everybody is different and often people run the way that suits their physiology. For example some olympic athletes may be seen to have really bad form, and yet, they are olympic athletes! I have found that sometimes trying to force change in style can cause more issues.

Great talk thank u. With heal strike, at what point does it become a braking affect and slows u down?

Is The TrueForm Runner good for IT Band injury/Pain? Thank you! What shoe's does Chris wear and run in? Thank you!

I run barefoot on the Trueform all the time and no problems with calves at all.

1.) I'm a zero drop and minimalist footwear runner, and can not heel strike "on purpose." I really don't get how someone can change their gait intentionally..... 2.) I challenge either one of you to show me footage of Kipchoge heel-striking. I've watched numerous RU-vid videos of the elites, and maybe 10% of them heel strike (if that).... post a link as a reply and convince me otherwise...

Thanks for the video! Anyone know how to avoid foot pain? I cannot run for more than a few minutes before my feet start feeling on fire. The one thing I notice in my gait is that my left foot strikes approximately straight, but my right foot strikes more towards my mid body.

why not try to build stronger legs, calves and hamstrings? so that you can run without a heelstrike? I will compare to lifting weights with bad form. I could deadlift the same weigth, BUT my back will not be straight, should I go on, or should I stop/reduce the weight? ofc i reduce the weight or stop. should be the same with running. nobody is build for a heelstrike. only after adding a giant heel in the shoes people are able to heelstrike. try jumping from a table and landing on the heel with no shoes, my bet is that you dont do that a second time. I am not a vegan barefoot runner who drives a e-car, but doing some barefoot running just to feel how your BRAIN tells you to run will be benefitcial. IF you can heelstrike with no shoes for hours on end you have a higher paintolerence than me, thats for sure.
