GaitLab Coach: Run Pain-Free

About

Your running form isn't set in stone. It's coachable. A lot of nagging running pain comes down to how you move: landing with your foot too far out in front, a hip that drops each time you land, a slow and heavy cadence. Those are habits, and habits can change. GaitLab Coach helps you see yours, connects them to the injury you're dealing with, and gives you a plan to work on them. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tell us where it hurts. Pick up to 4 of 16 common running injuries: runner's knee, IT band syndrome, shin splints, plantar fasciitis, Achilles pain and more. Or skip that and just work on your form. 2. Prop your phone up and film yourself running from the side for about 60 seconds. 3. Our AI studies your stride, and your phone measures your cadence. 4. You see what you're doing well, the form habits most likely linked to your pain, and what to work on first. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most form feedback stays vague: "good posture," "work on your stride." GaitLab is built around your injury, so a runner with IT band pain and a runner with shin splints get different priorities from the same kind of video. Findings are ranked HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW so you know where to start, and drills come with your own measured numbers attached so you know what you're aiming for. Is form worth the effort? In a 2018 randomized trial, new runners who retrained their gait had 62% fewer injuries over the following year (Chan et al., American Journal of Sports Medicine).
