Running biomechanics

Running biomechanics is the study of how our body moves when we run. It looks at how muscles, bones, joints, and tendons work together to produce efficient movement and prevent injury. By analyzing factors like stride length, foot strike, and joint angles, experts can understand our running style. This information helps improve performance, reduce pain, and tailor training or footwear to individual needs. Essentially, it’s about understanding the body’s mechanical functions during running to promote healthier and more effective movement.
