- Primary study focus
- The depth progression from the near shoulder through torso and pelvis to the rear foot, with one clearly defined running contact.
- 30-second exercise
- Block the near shoulder, ribcage and pelvis as three overlapping masses. Add the rear foot contact and the raised left knee.

- Compare the apparent widths of shoulders and pelvis, then trace the trailing right leg to its forefoot contact. Preserve the visible portions of the far arm without drawing through the torso.
- Reference limitation
- A single running frame does not establish impact force or a complete movement sequence.
