BJSM editor Tej Pandya chats with Chris Bramah (@chrisbramah), England Athletics physiotherapist and biomechanist based at the Manchester Institute of Health and Performance. Chris is completing a PhD dissertation on the links between running gaits and running injuries. They discuss: - Biomechanics of elite running athletes - Applying biomechanics to produce clinically relevant outcomes - A case of ITB syndrome in runners: What’s the role of biomechanical assessment? - Advances biomechanics technology - How the clinician can use biomechanics to assess athletes Links to some of the papers mentioned in the podcast: - How to estimate centre of mass in running? https://bit.ly/2k4KbbV
