Train hard, run free
The running dynamics sensor of Garmin can easily be attached to the tire of your pants. He measures whether you have improved your running dynamics from yesterday. This allows you to run without having to wear a chest strap. Once you have linked your compatible smartwatch1, you can attach the sensor at the back in the middle of the strap of your pants and start running.
Rate your form
View and analyze important running data, such as your cadence, step length, ground contact time and balance, vertical oscillation and vertical ratio. Through these biomechanical measurements you can better understand your running form, so that you perform better on a competition day.
That is how it works
The running dynamics sensor contains a gear meter, which measures movements of the upper body and calculates the following 6 running data:
- Cadans is the number of steps per minute. The total number of steps is displayed (left and right together).
- Ground contact time balance shows the left/right balance of your ground contact time while running. This balance is displayed as a percentage. For example 53.2% with an arrow to the left or to the right.
- Step length is the distance between the places where you put your one foot and your other foot. This length is measured in meters.
- Vertical oscillation is the up and down movement while running. This shows the vertical movement of your upper body, measured in centimeters for each step.
- Vertical ratio is the ratio between vertical oscillation and step length. This balance is displayed as a percentage. A lower ratio usually indicates a better running condition.
- Ground contact time is the amount of time for each step while running where there is contact with the ground. This is measured in milliseconds.
