Activefeet NTC In-Store Evening

active feet, a sponsor of the club for two seasons, will be hosting an information night exclusive to Nunawading Tri Club Members.

This is to be held at the Heathmont Store on:

Friday the 26th of March @ 6:30pm

@

active feet Heathmont

129 Canterbury Road

Heathmont VIC 3135

 

 

 

 

active feet is owned & run by some of Melbourne's leading sports podiatrists. Years of clinical experience helped identify an opportunity to develop a true technical fitting service, providing this expertise to those who required correct functioning & fitting athletic footwear.

This session will be aimed at those who are interested in learning more about the services available for club members, and provide information on the importance of footwear & foot care for Triathletes. The evening will be ideal for those who are new to the sport/club or for those more experienced members (looking to move into the longer distance races and training in the coming winter months) who have yet to utilize active feet’s services. On the night, we will have a presentation made by Lifecare Podiatrist Scott Murray covering details on lower limb biomechanics, footwear, injury prevention and management.

Following this there will be a shoe fit up review conducted by Podiatry trained active feet staff members. Although not at all an expectation, there will be the opportunity to purchase any product in-store.

All current members would have received two footwear gift vouchers to the value of $30 each in their membership packs, so if you have not already taken advantage of a voucher, this night will be an ideal opportunity. We will also be offering 15% off racing flats and accessories on the night (including body glide, tech socks, nutrition, GPS/Heart-Rate units, clothing etc). 

The information night is open to the first 20 members who reply via the chat room.

Top Gear Cycles Dynamic Bike Fit System

If you have never been set up on your bike or are wanting more out of your cycling, book yourself in for a Dynamic Bike Fit,  which captures “real time” video of your cycling position. In our experience most cyclists can improve their positions even if they have been cycling for years. The Bike Fit is available for all types of bikes, including Triathlon, Road or MTB.
It is a detailed session and you will need to allow approx 75 minutes.

You will gain:
    Improved Comfort; Optimum fit provides maximum comfort.
    Injury Prevention; a bike that fits your body will reduce the risk of injuries.
    Pain Elimination; An Optimum fit reduces undue stress and strain on joints and muscles.
    Increased Power; When your legs are working to their full potential your power output increases.
    Improved Efficiency; efficient pedalling=less energy expended. Which means increased endurance over longer distances.
