Runeasi 3D Gait Analysis: What It Is and Why It Matters

Runeasi 3D Gait Analysis is Stowe’s new way to look at your running mechanics in real time. A small sensor sits on the waistband over your lower back. You can either jog on the treadmill, or take it outside for a road or trail run; the sensor records how your pelvis moves in all directions (Think: up and down, left and right, and rotation). The Runeasi software then turns that data into clear numbers we can use right away. A typical test takes about five minutes, and you see the results instantly.

The system gives us basics like cadence, ground contact time, and right-to-left symmetry, but the two metrics we care about most (and so should you) are Dynamic Stability and Impact Loading.

Dynamic stability

Dynamic stability tells us how steady your trunk stays as you run. Large side-to-side or up-and-down movements waste energy and place extra stress on hips, knees, and back. If your score sits below the target range, we prescribe drills that improve core strength and single-leg control. As that score climbs, your stride gets smoother and running feels easier.

Impact loading

Impact loading measures how hard and how fast forces travel from your foot to your pelvis with each landing. High numbers often appear in runners with shin splints, knee pain, or stress-type injuries. We can lower this score by adjusting cadence, footwear, or strength work aimed at better shock absorption.

How the data helps you

With these objective numbers we can spot issues early, track progress session to session, and give you exercises that target your exact weak spots. Whether you're training for your first 5K, returning from injury, or chasing a PR, the insights fit your goals. That means more efficient running, lower injury risk, and faster times.
