Forma

What Forma is

Forma reviews how you run from video. Upload footage of yourself running and it analyses gait, posture and landing patterns, returning feedback on efficiency and suggestions to adjust technique before small issues become injuries.

What you can do with it

• Upload a running clip for form analysis
• Spot overstriding or posture issues
• Compare form before and after changes
• Pair feedback with your training plan
• Re-analyse after technique adjustments

Who it is for

• Recreational runners with recurring niggles
• Beginners building technique early
• Self-coached runners without lab access

What to watch out for

• The vendor's expert-level claim is marketing; video AI lacks the force plates and 3D capture of a real gait lab
• Camera angle, frame rate and clothing affect analysis quality
• Persistent pain needs a physiotherapist, not app feedback; technique is only one injury factor
• Running form advice is general; apply changes gradually and stop if pain appears
