We work with athletes of all ability levels, with a broad range of goals. Our major emphasis is on athletes who swim, bike and run. Whether you’re training for your first century ride, bicycle racing, sprint triathlon, national championships, 70.3, or just trying to gain a general fitness level, we can help! From advising you on equipment choices and adjustments, to training your body and tuning your mind, we are here to support you and keep you on the right path.
Performance Bike Positioning
Erik Moen is a nationally recognized expert in bicycling biomechanics and aerodynamics. He takes into consideration your goals, strengths and weaknesses and places you in a position on your bike to allow for optimum aerodynamics and power production. Higher level functioning on the bicycle is a process progressed over time, so the ideal position may take some time to achieve.
Retül 3-D Bicycle Motion Analysis
Retül is a dynamic 3D motion capture fit system designed to discover and define irregular motion while riding. This fit system not only allows you be as efficient and fast as possible, but it also helps keep you injury free. Retül uses eight anatomical LED markers strategically placed on the wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle and ball of the foot, which gather information and transmits it to the PC. The system captures your position relative to your pedaling motion, and therefore creates the most realistic replication of your actual pedal stroke and body position when out on the road. Erik Moen uses his training as a physical therapist and the 3-dimensional views to make the best adjustments to your bike position. The process is repeated following changes to verify the effectiveness of each change.
Custom Bike Sizing
Looking to get a new bike but unsure of what size to get? Or perhaps you’re going for your custom-built dream bike. We use a Calfee Sizer Cycle for accurate custom fittings. We can quickly adjust seat tube angle, seat tube length, top tube length, head tube angle, and head tube length. You will leave the appointment with all measurements so that you can get just the right bike for your body.
Footbeds
When you have mild imbalance issues, custom footbeds are a effective way to solve the problem. As a more affordable alternative to orthotics, they can provide light support to help correct foot placement and alleviate pain. Corpore Sano can make custom footbeds for your cycling, running, or walking shoes. We use the Custom System by Sidas. Give us a call or email to enquire about this service.
Gait Evaluation
Gait Evaluation can be an effective method for correcting and perfecting your athletic movements, resulting in better body control, injury prevention and maximum power output. By performing a comprehensive examination of your entire body, we can identify any abnormalities that may be contributing to movement discrepancies and power loss. Gait correction recommendations can help you improve performance and prevent injury. You can read a little more about our process here.
Video analysis is also available. We use advanced digital video recording and analysis software technology to gain information from both full body functional muscle/joint testing and video gait analysis. Then we determine problematic areas needing improvement.
Coaching Consultation
Consultation appointments with Erik Moen will help you plan your season, answer questions, and get you on the right track to meet your goals. This is meant to provide you with an overview of your training strategy. Erik specializes in the bicycling disciplines of road, mountain, cyclocross and velodrome racing. He has coached Masters World Champions (mountain and velodrome), Junior National Champions (road).

Lactate Threshold Estimate
We’ve partnered with Athlos Sports Consulting to provide you with Lactate Balance Point Testing in our office. Knowing your lactate balance point will give you insight into your body’s underlying physiology and guide your training to help achieve your goals.
If you run or ride too hard lactate builds up in your system. At lower levels of effort your body can assimilate that lactate, but above a certain point – your lactate balance point – the lactate level continues to build, eventually forcing you to slow down. When you test with Corpore Sano and Athlos, you will be using the same test that professional athletes use to guide their training.
Lactate threshold estimates and power profiling are also available through utilization of Computrainer testing by Corpore Sano Sports Performance. Testing takes approximately one hour and is performed at Corpore Sano in Kenmore. Visit Corpore Sano Sports Performance for more information.
