The Human Powered Health Cycling Team is headed into 2025 on a high note. Last month, the team visited our state-of-the-art Performance Lab in Wellesley for an eventful weekend. The weekend included various baseline performance testing and team-building activities to lay the foundation for a successful season.
After a successful 2024 season, the Human Powered Health Cycling Team is ready to tackle 2025. Guided by our expert performance physiologists, including Master’s and PhD-level specialists, the athletes received comprehensive performance testing. Personalized, data-driven strategies are now in place to optimize their training and help them achieve peak performance for the demanding season ahead.
In addition to fitting the athlete’s bikes, we assessed their balance, strength and endurance. The tests were all designed to empower them to perform at their best during off-season training and throughout the upcoming season.
Human Powered Health Performance Director Therese Hammerschmith spoke on the importance of performance testing for athletes, “Gathering baseline measurements in the lab provides a data-driven lens for how each athlete should approach their offseason and ramp back into training at the appropriate time.”
She also discussed the impact this performance testing will have on the overall team, saying, “This comprehensive data allows the coaches to be very strategic about how they will plan individual training as well as team training camps, to set the athletes up for success not only for optimal performance but for their overall health and wellbeing.”
“Having the athletes in the Wellesley Performance Lab last week was truly inspiring.” said Human Powered Health Chief Performance Officer Dan Cohen. “Their energy and curiosity brought fresh perspectives, and it’s exciting to think about how this connection between our team and the lab will evolve. We are looking forward to the future as we collaborate and innovate together, bridging athletic performance with scientific exploration in impactful ways.”
It was an honor to have some of the world’s best professional cyclists in our Performance Lab and to be trusted with their performance data. The collaboration between our Human Powered Health cycling team and Performance Labs lies at the heart of our mission: to inspire and empower individuals to reach their fullest potential and support any goals they have.
