Services
The PULSE is the only specialty store in the Treasure Valley to offer FREE Video Gait Analysis. We have two treadmills, both connected to a video camera. Understanding your foot arch and how much you pronate is important if you want to pick the right running shoe.
Pronation refers to the degree to which your foot rolls inward as you land: You either land a little on the outside (underpronate), a little on the inside (overpronate), or straight down the middle (neutral pronate).Replaying the tape in slow motion and stop motion, we observe and evaluate the basic mechanics of your foot, arch, and ankle.

Went and purchased a new pair of running shoes on New Years eve (2018). Was assisted by an extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff member. They do a gait analysis on the tread mill to find the perfect shoe for yourself. An added bonus is the store had a small area setup with toys to play with that helped keep my toddler entertained. Fantastic service and great options are seen here!

Had a good experience at Pulse Running & Fitness Shop today. I went over just to take a look at shoes and maybe get assistance on what type of shoe would be best for me- and I ended up walking out with a pair of Brooks shoes (Adrenalines) that felt like butter on my feet.
The young man helping me quickly noticed my foot rolled slightly inward and began bringing out a series of shoes for me to try on. He was knowledgeable and able to answer my questions. He even encouraged me to take the shoes outside and run awhile with them. What I liked was he mentioned that the older series of Brooks was 30

I had an awesome experience today at Pulse. I've been training for a 60-mile walk and began having foot problems as I got up into double digit mileage during my training walks. I went it today and they did a gait analysis and helped me pick a shoe to stabilize my foot and take the pressure of the spots that have been bothering me. I'm excited for my next big walk next weekend in my new shoes! Amazing, knowledgeable folks who are really dedicated to making sure people can stay active and meet their fitness goals!
