StrideUK - It's not just what your feet are doing!
If you believe you've had your running technique analysed before other than at StrideUK, think again. Unlike 99% of all other running stores in the uk offering video gait analysis service, StrideUK stand proud to be one of the very few video gait analysis companies that analyse the whole body instead of just your feet.
As much as running shoes are important...
we show you how to run better!
Since launch in August 2008, StrideUKs clientele has grown so quickly due to being one of the very few Video Gait Analysis companies that pay strict attention as to how the entire body performs during the process of running. Without promoting one particular running style for all, StrideUK are here to fine tune each and every ones running technique... individually.
Having clients visiting from all corners of the World, working with British and World Class Professional Runners,Triathletes and Ironmen, StrideUK is dedicated to providing a complete postural analysing service utilising the most intuitive video analysis software available.
Last September, we expanded to our new premises, The Agora Building, Ellen Street, Hove, 50 yards away from Hove Station. This new 'Training Centre' provides ample space to welcome running groups and sports teams to visit for training days, seminars and coaching.
Alongside the Video Gait 'Running Technique' service, we also provide high quality treatment rooms, facilitating a team of highly experienced sports therapists to deliver high quality sports therapy across a multitude of disciplines including osteopathy, physiotherapy, sports injury & postural rehabilitation. There is also a large matted stretching / core conditioning area to offer personal one to one coaching or group classes.
What ever your goals, what ever your ability, what ever your limitations, let us show you how we can help!
Call us today on 01273 711399.
If we had competition... we'd still be number 1!
'To date, we still stand completely alone doing what we do! We're not here to sell you a running shoe, nor upsell further appointments or personal training packages, it's all about providing you the right training program specifically for you. We believe that if you follow our advice, stick to the program and do your homework... we'll get you back on your feet and ahead of the race.'
Why 'Instore' gait analysis is proving more popular, but does carry flaws.
Video Gait Analysis (the process of inspecting your running style using video filming equipment) is becoming more accessible up and down the country. Many running shops are now providing this service to allow customers to run on a treadmill to help with trainer recommendation. And although that’s a good start to help make sure people are wearing the right shoes, there are a few flaws in this process.
Although this style of video gait analysis can help determine if a runner is overpronating or supinating by watching in slow motion, either movement can happen for many reasons: due to the running shoe itself, a muscular problem further up the body, the treadmill itself (most commercial treadmills have too much loose slack in the ‘belt driven system’ to promote a realistic gait pattern, notice how running outdoors feels different to treadmill running).
This is why observing running style from behind the feet is actually not very helpful. More info ...
