Running Analysis

With our running analysis and running form coaching, HPC can get you moving more efficiently and ready to perform your best.

Hi Earl,

You did a running analysis of me last September and I wanted to let you know how much it helped. Since about November after using many of your drills, I was able to increase my steps per minute to about 170 or higher for most of my runs and — knock on wood — I’ve been able to run free of major injury (just normal soreness/pains) since.
 
The higher cadence also helped lower my heart rate, while running, allowing for faster paces and more intense training, where I’ve had my fastest times in about 10 years. This includes a 19 min 5K, sub 70 min at the Crim 10M, a 1:33 half and a 3:20 marathon.
 
I often see people talk about form, especially cadence, to say it doesn’t matter much/don’t pay attention to it, but in my case, at least, this modest change has been key where I’ve been able to enjoy my running again.
 
Thanks again and best wishes.
Chris – Dexter, MI

Running Form Analysis – $200

Running Form Analysis is a 90-minute session using Runscribe sensors and video analysis to help you dial in your running mechanics to reduce injuries and improve performance.

The first 30-minutes will gather data using sensors on your shoes and hips,  slow motion video analysis, and orthopedic assessment testing. We will then review the information together, to identify mechanical errors that can lead to injury or decreased performance.

Using this information, we will prescribe corrective exercises and running form drills that will help strengthen your weaknesses, improve mobility, and correct movement dysfunctions. Running shoe selection will also be evaluated and recommendations provided, as needed.

At the end of your analysis, you will have a better understanding of how you run, paired with a plan to make you a stronger, more injury-resistant runner.
