“Human Powered Health and The Boston Triathlon have a shared vision about human wellness and performance. It is lucky for us and our athletes that they now have two incredible state-of-the-art facilities in Massachusetts. Part of our mission has always been to make sure everyone involved in the Boston Triathlon – athletes, kids, spectators, volunteers – cares about their overall wellness and their athletic performance. We are excited to let our community know about this valuable resource for taking control of your health,” said Michael O’Neil, president of the Boston Triathlon. “It is great to see that Human Powered Health is also bringing important science to this year’s race by providing race participants with free hydration testing and a performance physiologist to answer questions. Human Powered Health understands people at all levels of fitness, and their free tests will be a great perk for Boston Triathlon participants who want to ensure they are in peak condition to compete in the races.”
Human Powered Health’s master’s and PhD-level physiologists work with people at all levels of fitness to understand their unique bodies and achieve their individual performance goals by combining state-of-the-art assessments and equipment with expert data-driven insights, all in one location. They will be onsite at Athlete Village offering free consultations, hydration tests, a giveaway and more for all race participants.
“As we continue to work with athletes and health-conscious individuals to help them improve their performance, Boston represents a highly anticipated expansion for us. We are thrilled to welcome the vibrant Boston community into our performance lab on Newbury Street, as well as our newly-opened flagship location in Wellesley,” said Dan Cohen, Chief Performance Officer of Human Powered Health. “We are excited to build inroads with the triathlon and endurance community by partnering with the Boston Triathlon.”
