Let's get started
YOUR JOURNEY BEGINS
Welcome to EVOLVE MVMT
Welcome to your EVOLVE MVMT journey! Your device will be half charged when it arrives, we recommend you charge it to full charge before your first use. The charging unit connects to any standard USB port charger.
SET UP YOUR ACCOUNT
The EVOLVE MVMT app
The app will guide you through the process to enter your details to set up your account, connect your EVOLVE MVMT sensor and learn your light walking technique.
BASELINE WALK
How to perform a baseline
Next you will perform a baseline walk using your natural walking style. This should be performed on a 30-foot hard surface walkway (i.e., concrete or asphalt) in bare feet. This will allow foraccurate long-term performance analytics. A score will be generated out of 10 for how optimised your walking technique is. A 10 is a perfect score, most users perform between 4-7 naturally. For those using one sensor, you will be guided through performing a baseline test on both legs, swapping your sensor to the opposite side and generating scores for each leg.
'LIGHT WALK' BASELINE
How to perform a 'light walk' baseline
Next you will be guided through EVOLVE MVMT’s light walking technique. You will perform your first EVOLVE MVMT light walking baseline. This will generate your first light walking score, you will see an improvement from your first natural walking baseline. Over time you will see this improve vastly as you perfect your light walking technique. Once the light walking baseline is complete, you will have completed your on-boarding process. You will now have access to the home screen, where you can immediately review your improvement in your baseline where your score is displayed.
Starting a walk
From the home screen there is a button to start a walk. When you’re ready to start your walk, click the button to record your walking data. For the first walk you do, you will need to select your shoe type and surface. You can adjust these settings when necessary.
What feedback does the app give?
The EVOLVE MVMT sensor will prompt you throughout your walk with a vibration when you are taking steps under your thresholds (performing poor steps). You can also view your step performance live on the app screen. Each step is indicated with a circle which represents the performance of your step visually. A small circle indicates a good quality step, whereas a large circle indicates a bad step. A good step is also displayed higher on the screen, a bad step is displayed lower on the screen. Your threshold for each step is marked by the dotted line on the screen and is generated by the software to be personalised to your walking technique to help improve your performance as optimally as possible.
What do I see after a completed walk?
Once you’ve completed your walk, you’ll see a summary of your walk (steps, time spent walking, thresholds). You can also label a walk to allow you to compare it to other walks in the future.
Can I use my phone while using the app?
As the app is designed for you to be learning how to light walk, you can’t take calls or lock the screen during use. Once you feel confident that you don’t need to review your performance on the screen anymore, you can use the sensors independently of the app and the sensor will work on the same parameters you've set. This includes the surface, shoes and corresponding thresholds of your last walk. So you’ll still feel the live feedback of vibrations to keep you walking optimally.

Metrics Explained
Thresholds
A threshold is the level of walking you are trying to achieve in the short term (i.e., each session). This is your performance level you should be working above to improve your technique. These thresholds are determined by your individual characteristics and movement patterns. The thresholds are marked as dotted lines on the screen. When you step, you will see if your step is above (good) or below (needs refinement) the threshold line.
Baseline
Your original baseline is the level of walking you naturally performed before discovering EVOLVE MVMT. This will be tested when you first engage with the app. A baseline score will be provided, and you will then be guided to perform a new light walking baseline. This will then be used to reference your improvement and generate thresholds for you to perform above when you are walking.
Scores
With EVOLVE MVMT your walking performance is analysed in real time and a score is generated, out of ten (to one decimal point). The higher the score, the better your technique. As you would imagine, there are varying degrees of efficiency to which people move. We are seeing a normal variation in people’s baseline walking from 4-7’s and an improvement of 0.5-2.5 points with light walking.
