A Few Athlete Testimonials

  • “He still remembers the struggle and sacrifice, and he's incredibly good at recognizing when an athlete needs encouragement and when they need a kick in the pants.”

    Travis Furman

  • “What immediately struck me about Johann and his coaching philosophy was his emphasis on creating a sustainable routine and tailoring the training to improve my weaknesses. Having competed at the highest level of the sport, Johann knows what it takes to succeed and he uses this experience to help his athletes achieve their goals on the bike.”

    Michael Battaglia

  • ‘‘Johann has not only helped me to boost my power on a bike and general fitness, but also he built a training routine that I absolutely love.’’

    Jurgita Lemesiute

The Process

  • There is no one-plan-fits-all when it comes to performance. We are all individuals, with individual goals, strengths, weaknesses, and requirements. I believe building a strong athlete-coach relationship is key to success and that all starts with communication.

    I structure and personalize your training plan to ensure it creates a holistic healthy balance in your life. The training is built around your schedule and personal obligations with the goal to optimize, not maximize.

  • The art to coaching is to create a plan that creates the right amount of stress at the right time (stimulus) that requires the least amount of recovery for you to be able to repeat. Stress is stress for your body, whether it’s from training or life, and that is why the athlete-coach relationship is critical to find the right balance.

  • I stay on top of all the scientific literature and use data to guide me in the right direction. Above all, I coach with empathy.

    I believe having empathy is key. It takes an incredible amount of discipline and dedication to grind it out block after block, and you need your coach to be your biggest supporter, helping you through the tough times and celebrating your success.

Johann turned professional at the age of 21 and raced multiple Grand Tours, won professional races, and was well known as someone willing to turn himself inside out for his team leaders, race after race. Even more importantly, Johann knows what it takes to overcome injury right when you feel you’re at the top of the world. He knows what it takes to become a professional, the sacrifices, and the 24/7 dedication and discipline required. But, vital to his coaching methodology, he understands we are all human and not just a CTL score. 

Since starting his coaching career Johann has coached his athletes to National Titles, victories at America’s most prominent stage races such as Joe Martin, Killington, GMSR, as well as the highly competitive gravel racing scene.
