Is the Vertical Oscillation accurate with HRM Tri?

DPSK over 5 years ago

Hi,

I was doing some speed repeats.

Are the readings accurate?

Why was my walking VO at 4cm?

If walking was accurate, then my feet lifted only 2+ cm from the ground to run?

These doesn't make sense.

Shouldn't the VO be removed if I am walking? There is no GCT balance while walking.

Depends on how you define "accurate".

Because why not? What's wrong with 4 cm?

Vertical oscilation shows oscilation of your body, not your feet.

Well I was walking beside the mirror so didn't expect the VO to be that high. I see my walking VO was relatively flat.

Anyway, here is a study done.

Sorry let's close thread.
