1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
- detecting a first user stride motion with one or more sensors;
detecting a subsequent second user stride motion subsequent to the first user stride motion with one or more sensors;
identifying a change in user stride motion from the first user stride motion and the subsequent second user stride motion, wherein the change in user stride motion is associated with a user overstride motion and a decrease in user stride form; and
prompting a user responsive to identifying the change in user stride motion comprising outputting a prompt to modify a user form at a device user interface.

Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for athletic performance monitoring are disclosed. In one example, a system includes an inertial sensor configured to measure an acceleration in a moving direction of a user foot of a user during locomotion and output an acceleration signal, a memory storing a stride acceleration motion profile, and a processing system configured to process the acceleration signal and the stride acceleration motion profile to identify a reduced user overstride.

2. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
-
detecting a first user stride motion with one or more sensors; detecting a subsequent second user stride motion subsequent to the first user stride motion with one or more sensors; identifying a change in user stride motion from the first user stride motion and the subsequent second user stride motion; and prompting a user responsive to identifying the change in user stride motion at a device user interface, wherein prompting the user responsive to identifying the change in user stride motion comprises messaging the user to perform a motion of a user body part other than a user foot or position the user body part other than the user foot. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)

6. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
-
monitoring a user foot stride motion with one or more sensors; detecting an undesirable user foot stride motion; and prompting a user at a device user interface to correct the undesirable user foot stride motion by performing a desired motion with a user'"'"'s body part other than a user'"'"'s foot or by positioning the user'"'"'s body part other than the user'"'"'s foot to achieve a desired position. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 37, 38)

14. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
-
monitoring a user foot stride motion with one or more sensors; detecting a user overstride motion from an output of the one or more sensors; and prompting a user to correct the user overstride motion by increasing a user step cadence or reducing a user stride length; and detecting the user step cadence or the user stride length subsequent to prompting the user to correct the user overstride motion by increasing the user step cadence or reducing the user stride length. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41)
