Body Concepts Inc.

Proper bike positioning to your unique body type, fitness and riding style is crucial to reducing injury, providing comfort and enhancing your performance.

Numbness and pain are not normal…comfort equals performance!

Body Concepts’ Rob Kopitzke, PT, USA Elite Cycling Coach has years of experience as a cyclists in multiple disciplines. Rob has the expertise not only to improve your bike set up but reduce limitations in your body as well.

As a physical therapist, cyclist and a certified coach, Rob knows the optimal position for a cyclist to produce the most power and least aerodynamic drag. However, every rider is unique and has some flexibility and/or strength imbalances, poor pedaling technique or previous injury history that may prevent them from achieving this optimal position…yes, even Sagan.

At Body Concepts we initially adjust the bicycle to the rider’s body and offer specific programs to improve flexibility and strength, pedaling technique, postural alignment and stability to ride faster and more comfortably…getting you closer to your full potential.

Testimonials

“I do a lot of cross training on the bike as part of my training as a competitive rower, but I had never thought of it as more than a tool to get my heart rate in the right zone for the right amount of time–that’s until I went to Body Concepts. Now I’ve had the chance to work with Rob to get my bike perfectly set up for my own body, and I’ve had the chance to get coached by him on actual rides. After doing my bike fit with Rob, not only am I blown away by how comfortable a bike can feel, but I also feel tremendously stronger when I ride. Rob has also coached me during several rides, and the difference that he can make in only a few sessions is surprising. Imagine having a personal coach riding right next to you and giving you real-time analysis that makes you faster and stronger, and that’s what it’s like riding with Rob. Now I find myself constantly thinking: number one, ‘that was an AWESOME ride’…and number two, ‘when is my next ride!’” – Matthew, competitive rower
