Our passion for cycling is incorporated into all aspects of the company; our services, our research, our testing methods and in the training advice we provide. The Radlabor accepts the challenge to be the leading companion for the sportive, ambitious or competitive athlete, providing information and mentoring advice throughout their sporting journey.

Successful athletes check their talents and abilities and assess their strengths and weaknesses before setting realistic goals.

The sport of cycling, like any other predominantly physical sport, is susceptible to doping. It can seem at times, that performance at the very top level is not possible without artificial intervention.

As the Radlabor we strictly reject doping. We firmly believe that outstanding performance in cycling is absolutely achievable without the need for doping.

Ongoing and intelligent training, power and biomechanical analytical support and a suitable genetic background are the premise for performance at the very top level.

In identifying your individual talent and ability, biological variables such as heart rate, lactate and oxygen production and usage, as well as biomechanical parameters such as power, force and kinematic pathways, are important features of performance to consider.

We can not change, nor do we aim to change your genetic makeup, however, by analyzing and measuring certain aspects of your genetics, we gain information about your potential for enhancement and discover in which areas these are to find. This information is incorporated into the advice we give to you. Genetic analysis and integration of this knowledge into training programs is the basis for legal improvement of performance through smart training.

Do not leave it to chance. Achieve your goals systematically and on target. Allow the Radlabor to provide you with the knowledge, advice and training schedule you need to reach your full potential in a motivating and scientific environment.

Designing a training programme is a huge challenge for any athlete as the current knowledge base is extensive, complex and potentially confusing. As the Radlabor we provide you with services that are based on more than 10 years of personal experience in research, testing and training, combining intelligence and innovation into organized, logical and scientifically sound advice. This is our area of expertise. We will teach you to move efficiently and train effectively.
