Biomechanics

A deep dive into how your body functions beneath your running form — analysing load, alignment and internal mechanics.

What Is a Biomechanics Assessment?

A Biomechanics Assessment is essentially a full-body MOT. Suitable for anyone managing injury, dealing with recurring niggles or wanting to fully optimise their physical performance. Your specialist coach screens the major structures, nerves and joints to identify asymmetries and understand why your body moves the way it does.

Overview

Biomechanics is the study of human movement, looking at how the body loads, stabilises and compensates. It can be broken into two categories:

 

1) Extrinsic – The external observation of movement and forces. For example, analysing how you squat or run using cameras and coaching cues. Technique is corrected based on the most effective and efficient anatomical patterns.

 

2) Intrinsic – The assessment of internal structures that influence movement. This includes joint mechanics, muscle imbalances, leg-length discrepancies, nerve pathways or pelvic alignment. Because the body is a master compensator, intrinsic issues often go undetected without a deeper assessment — yet they frequently explain recurring pain or performance limitations.

Key Details

The assessment lasts 90 minutes to 2 hours. Wear comfortable clothing — you’ll complete a series of movements and measured tests while standing, sitting and lying down. Although you may spend a few minutes walking or jogging on a treadmill, the session is low-impact and always adapted to your individual needs.

Areas of specialism include:
• Back Pain
• Hip & Groin Pain
• Performance Gains
• Injury Prevention
• Specialist Resistance Training
• Running & Foot Mechanics

I have struggled with achilles tendonitus since I was at school, but after a biomechanics assessment, I understood the root cause, implemented some daily movements, and I have not experienced any problems since.

What’s Included

1. Intrinsic Biomechanics Screening
A full-body profile assessing joint function, muscular symmetry, range of motion and stability patterns using evidence-based intrinsic biomechanics protocols.

2. Running Technique Observation
A coached critique of your running form to identify how your intrinsic mechanics show up during movement: footstrike, posture, cadence, propulsion and load management.

3. Strength & Stability Testing
Targeted assessments to pinpoint compensations, weaknesses or asymmetries influencing speed, endurance or injury risk.

4. Coaching Feedback & Exercise Plan
Immediate practical guidance plus tailored corrective exercises you can integrate into your training plan.

Steps

Statistics show:

• 60% of knee and foot issues are linked to pelvic mechanics.


• 91% of ACL injuries present with abnormal pelvic biomechanics.

This means the body often compensates for deeper intrinsic factors — placing excess load on a joint, muscle or nerve until pain or injury occurs. Your report highlights exactly where these issues originate and how to address them.

From here, your Biomechanics Coach can recommend a Bespoke Programme, integrate findings into your OneTrack training plan, or arrange a referral within our multidisciplinary team if further support is required.
