Runners are driven by progress: longer distances, faster splits, stronger results. But that same drive often leads to a familiar cycle: injury, rehabilitation, recovery… and relapse. Research shows that up to half of athletes suffer a reinjury, often due to returning too quickly to their “normal” training habits.
More than 80% of running injuries are linked to excessive biomechanical load, not caused by a single “wrong” step, but by a cumulative buildup that progresses faster than the body can tolerate.
To guide runners more safely and with greater confidence in their training progression, Golazo Energy integrates OnTracx into its daily running practice. Through an advanced biomechanical screening, OnTracx uses a lightweight sensor to measure load during running. These data provide insight into how the body processes training stress and make it possible to better tailor progression to each runner’s individual load capacity. This enables more targeted training, with the aim of reducing the risk of overuse injuries. Ideal for both runners returning from injury and those who want to stay injury-free while working toward new goals.
You can compare the load screening to an exercise test. While heart rate measurements show how the body responds to effort, OnTracx maps biomechanical load during running. Instead of heart rate zones, we work with load zones that help runners build training load in a controlled and individual way.
Know your limits. Measure the load. Progress with confidence.
OnTracx translates years of biomechanical research into a practical application for everyday running. With a lightweight sensor, an intuitive platform, and an app for athletes, running load is monitored objectively, allowing runners to work towards their goals with greater insight and confidence.
Golazo will use OnTracx in different packages and modules, built around two core needs:
1. Return-to-run package
The Return2Run package supports a safe and confident return to running. Using an advanced biomechanical screening with OnTracx, we map your individual load profile and create a personalised training plan tailored to your body and injury history.
After an injury, the main risk is doing too much too soon, while the body is still adapting. This program focuses on structured load build-up based on objective data, not feeling, to reduce the risk of relapse.
2. Effort test & biomechanical screening
For runners who want to build toward their goals responsibly, in a structured and evidence-based way. This package combines a comprehensive effort running test with a load analysis using OnTracx, mapping how your biomechanical profile evolves at higher running speeds. The result is a clear picture of both your performance capacity and injury risk in a single session. Suitable for recreational and competitive runners who want to train with purpose.
Running support is evolving fast. Runners want guidance that fits real life: busy schedules, fluctuating recovery, changing goals and they want it without drowning in data.
OnTracx makes complex biomechanics practical: not as “more numbers”, but as a way to understand what your body is absorbing and adjust training in time.
