How EVOLVE MVMT Transformed Joel’s Approach to Lifelong Running
Profile
44 year old male
Exercise
Daily runner and has completed marathons in the past.
History
Joel is a father of two, a husband, and a busy professional who runs for fitness and sanity! Running is his go-to for physical and mental health, and he’s determined to keep doing it for as long as possible. With a history of injury, he wants to make smart choices to stay injury-free.
Using EVOLVE MVMT
EVOLVE MVMT identified a lingering weakness in one leg from a past injury. Joel now tailors his warm-ups, strength work, and training load based on real-time insights.
The Data Explained
This snapshot of Joel's data from the EVOLVE MVMT app shows the difference between the performance of his left and right leg during a 6 mile run.
Using the graph, observe that the left leg is consistently performing at a lower level than the right leg.

The Outcome for Joel
EVOLVE MVMT has shown Joel that his left leg is not shock absorbing as well as the right.
With this knowledge, combined with Joel's history of a long-term injury, he now uses EVOVLE MVMT to:
- Monitor his training load.
- Perform additional activation work to equalize each leg's performance (i.e., warm up, strengthening, etc).
- Joel has adapted his training to improve technique, strengthen his weaker leg, and include activation exercises before each run.
- He’s also learned how different surfaces impact his running load—helping him train smarter and stay injury-free.
