TrainingPeaks, technology at the service of the Contador Foundation until 2026
The sports training solutions company will sponsor the Alberto Contador Foundation teams for the next three seasons, using its technology to boost cyclists’ performance and planning ahead of major events such as the Giro d’Italia.
TrainingPeaks enables intelligent and effective endurance training. Its products include TrainingPeaks.com Athlete, which offers the option to find a coach within the platform itself; the WKO+ software for scientific analysis and planning; and the TrainingPeaks mobile apps for iOS and Android. TrainingPeaks solutions are used by top-level cycling teams to track, analyse and plan their training.
You can also find training plans tailored to all cyclists and their needs or availability. Through a powerful search engine, where you have the option to indicate the hours and days per week you want to train, your ability, intensity level and many other variables, TrainingPeaks offers a customised training plan for cyclists from all over the world to prepare their goals and achieve their objectives.
Dirk Friel, Co-Founder & Chief Evangelist of TrainingPeaks: “We are delighted to continue supporting the Alberto Contador Foundation teams with our wide range of advanced training tools, so that they can continue to progress and achieve the best results in competition”.
Carlos Barredo, head of performance of the Contador Foundation cycling teams, emphasises the facilities that TrainingPeaks offers to all structures: “It is a luxury to have this tool, which allows us to monitor cyclists in all blocks: professional, under-23 and youth. It is a direct contact with the rider every day, it allows us to control each work session, correct any problems and work cooperatively between the 5 coaches of the structure. We also use WKO5 to analyse the training data and assess improvements in order to focus on the weakest points. All of this allows us to make medium and long term plans to achieve our performance objectives. TrainingPeaks makes our work a lot easier and goes into great detail on the road to success in the preparation of our cyclists”.
