SpeedLab

A huge congratulations to Chris Frederick for winning the USA Cycling Masters Criterium National Championship on June 28th! In addition to his National Championship win, Chris also finished in 4th Place in the Time Trial and 5th Place in the Road Race making it an immensely successful weekend. Chris consistently puts in the hard work, having a near perfect training compliance record and it shows.

Chris has been training with SpeedLab since 2018 and has put in countless hours on the bike and in the gym. He balances family life with training, we design training blocks around his schedule, pushing time and endurance when we can and shorter, highly effective workouts when needed.

This victory is even more impressive coming off a 2nd place finish in the Mens 55-59 Unbound Gravel 200 a little over a month earlier. The training periodization to compete and win in both of these events is meticulously planned out with data review, fatigue analysis and predictive models run continuously to ensure fitness gains while closing monitoring short and long term fatigue. Chris’s dedication and pursuit of the top is relentless and this victory is more than deserved. Congratulations Chris!!

Congratulations to Chris Frederick for his 2nd place Finish at Unbound Gravel in the 200 mile Mens 55-59 class and to Joe Fernandez for completing the 100 mile edition of the race finishing in 57th of 370 in the mens 50-59 class.
