The Running Dynamics Pod features a built-in accelerometer that measures your body's movement to calculate 6 important dynamics:

• Cadence is the number of steps per minute. It displays the total steps (combining the right and left foot)
• Ground contact time balance shows the right/left balance of ground contact time when running. It displays the percentage, e.g., 53.2, with an arrow indicating the right or left foot
• Stride length is the length from one footfall to the next
• Vertical oscillation is your bounce while running. It displays the vertical movement of your torso and is measured in centimeters for each step
• Vertical ratio is the ratio of vertical oscillation to stride length. It is displayed as a percentage, and the lower it is, the better the running performance usually is
• Ground contact time is the time your foot touches the ground with each step when running. It is measured in milliseconds
