Functional Biomechanics of Running

Dates: 10^th & 11^th March

12^th & 13^th May

Price: £375.00

Course Overview

Learn how you can help your patients to determine the biomechanical cause of their running injury and prevent future injury without investing in expensive software and equipment. The Running School methodology will teach you how to analyse movement dysfunction both dynamically (while running) and through movement.

This course is based on the movement methodology, developed by Mike Antoniades, which focuses on movement biomechanics in running and how it affects the kinetic chain. There will be particular emphasis placed on analysing the biomechanics using Video Analysis and Functional Movement Analysis and then correcting movement dysfunction through movement re-education, movement re-patterning and muscle activation.

 Course Objectives

At the end of the course the participants will be able to:

Identify inefficient or incorrect movement patterns while running through video analysis

Identify inefficient or incorrect movement patterns using a Functional Movement Analysis

Understand the basic causes of running injuries

Understand normal joint biomechanics and muscle activation during running

Identify the problems with various running styles

Understand movement re-education

Correct basic running technique
