Autumnleaves Jan 2015 9:14am, 22 Jan 2015 5,443 posts	Quote Pin Autumnleaves Looks very interesting - having stopped myself hitting the pre-order button I have no idea how much it costs as compared to a top of the range GPS - (which I don't have) - some of which do I think have cadence data now?

We can change the stride we take but I don't think its really possible to change the way our feet impact the ground etc. Will be sticking with my Garmin ( maybe buying a Garmin Vivoative when available buy.garmin.com )

The Teaboy Jan 2015 10:57am, 22 Jan 2015 12,363 posts	Quote Pin The Teaboy I was thinking interested in terms of the data. As skookie says - you have all this stuff about your angles and accelerations, but can you actually fundamentally change the way you run? Can it help you become more efficient, avoid injury, diagnose injury? How do certain patterns of accelerations and angles relate to the relative dominance within the running action of the various joints and muscles? Similarly if you use this for other applications, what can it help you do? It would be interesting to calibrate along side a force place to see how the accelerations compare at the foot mounted position and at the floor.
