Gait Training: The nuance, the nonsense and the freedom of moving in your own way

Update: 2021-10-28

Description

In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Mundt (Run Coach and Physical Therapist) and Dr. Ellie Somers (Run Coach and Physical Therapist) discuss their thoughts, feelings and the evidence surrounding gait training for runners.

Is gait training necessary? Will gait re-training reduce injury risk? Is gait usually the source of injury?

We walk through a lot of our personal belief and philosophy around this and how that has been informed by the evidence.

If you're a runner looking for physical therapy or run coaching services, give us a shout:
