Video Running Analysis Explained

Running Gait Analysis & Biomechanics Assessment in Sydney

Whether you’re experiencing recurring running injuries, struggling to improve your performance or simply wanting to understand your running technique, a comprehensive biomechanical assessment can provide valuable insights.

At Cammeray Chiropractic & Performance Centre, we combine advanced video gait analysis with detailed clinical assessment to identify movement inefficiencies, biomechanical restrictions and potential contributors to running-related pain.

With over 28 years of clinical experience, chiropractor Andrew Richards takes a whole-body approach to running analysis, examining how your feet, ankles, knees, hips, pelvis and spine work together during running, including movement patterns that may contribute to lower back pain.

Our goal isn’t simply to analyse how you run. It’s to understand why you move the way you do and identify practical strategies to help you run more efficiently, comfortably and confidently.

Advanced Video Running Gait Analysis

Our running gait analysis uses specialised motion-analysis software to examine your running technique in detail. Through slow-motion, frame-by-frame video assessment, we evaluate how your body moves throughout the running cycle.

We assess foot strike, stride length, cadence, lower limb alignment, pelvic stability, trunk control and overall running biomechanics.

Importantly, we don’t simply identify movement patterns. We investigate the underlying biomechanical restrictions, muscular imbalances and movement-control deficits that may contribute to inefficient running technique, recurring injuries or reduced performance.

By combining video gait analysis with a comprehensive clinical and functional assessment, we can develop targeted strategies for improving running efficiency, addressing contributing factors to injury and optimising performance.

Your Personalised Running Assessment and Recommendations

Following your running gait analysis, we explain our findings and provide practical recommendations tailored to your individual biomechanics, running goals and injury history.

Our goal is to provide more than a running technique assessment. We want you to understand why you move the way you do, what needs to change and how to achieve lasting improvements.

  • Your assessment may include:

    • Detailed Biomechanical Findings: Identification of movement inefficiencies, muscular imbalances, joint restrictions and potential contributors to running-related injuries.

    • Running Technique Retraining: Practical strategies to improve cadence, foot strike, stride mechanics, pelvic control and running efficiency where appropriate.

    • Corrective Exercise Programming: Targeted exercises designed to improve strength, mobility, stability and neuromuscular control.

    • Injury Management and Prevention: Individualised recommendations to address existing injuries and help reduce the risk of recurring problems.

    • Performance Optimisation: Strategies to improve running economy, movement efficiency and your ability to tolerate increasing training loads.
