"I hired Sara this past season. I had never used a coach before and was fed up with coming in 4th place in regional Downhill races. She set me up with a very reasonable schedule that was created 100% off of my personal schedule. Half way through my training I was hit by a car. This was a major set back and I was off the bike for 3 weeks. When this happened Sara set me up a with a recovery schedule that worked beautifully! So well in fact, that I won the Expert National Championships by over 20 seconds! With my new inspired confidence, and actualization of my potential, Sara has inspired me to make the jump to Pro for the upcoming 2008 season. For any one looking for a coach, she is the one!"

"Since I started training with Pedal Power I have seen a dramatic improvement in endurance, speed and results. I have learned how to train smart and to realize the value of preparation before, during and after each race. Sara prepared a schedule that fit in with my lifestyle and goals. The training plan was tailored to my age and physical attributes which gave me a perfect balance of training and recovery. Since I have started to train with Sara, I have spent more time on my bike but arrive at each race feeling fresh, ready and focused. I have come to understand the vast amount of time I used to train improperly, wasting valuable time and energy. I am planning to continue to train with Pedal Power in order to work on the other aspects of my riding in order to become a more complete athlete."

"Sara knows what's needed ... until she fit me on my bike, I had knee pain."

"Once again I am going to thank Sara B. for her coaching advice. I cannot say enough about how well it has worked out for me this year. I think anyone who is serious about racing and about keeping in shape should hire her."

After deciding to compete in a national caliber race schedule for the 2009 mountain bike season, I knew I was going to need some help to achieve my goals. Following the advice of a fellow cyclist, I talked to Sara and decided to race/train under her program.

In one season, I went from getting top 5 in my age group, to 1st and 2nd place finishes. I even won the 2009 Texas State Marathon Series title in 30-39 open. These finishes were also consistently placing me in the top 10-15 overall among the pro/elite class.

In one word, I would say my first 6 months under Sara’s program has been “excellent”.

If anyone wants to raise their cycling to the next level, she is the coach you need, period

"Cycling has been a passion in my life for years, but without warning, I started having trouble with back pain, saddle sores, and feelings of crookedness on the bike. Eventually, these problems became so severe, that I started seeing professionals to find a solution. I saw everybody...from various bike fitters to orthopedic surgeons to physical therapists. Many of them gave the same medical diagnosis, but none of them could provide the solution that mattered most: feeling comfortable again on a bicycle. At one point, I hit rock bottom and seriously considered quitting the sport.

Out of desperation, luck, or maybe a combination of both, I stumbled across Sara Bresnick in Arlington, MA. Fortunately, she was located close enough for me to pay her a visit. From the moment she contacted me, her willingness to help was clearly evident. Within days, I was in her studio getting fitted both on the bike and for a new pair of orthotics. Furthermore, one week later, I had my new orthotics and was pedaling pain free on the bike!

I could go on and on about Sara's expertise on understanding and fixing body alignment on the bike. But the fact that she fixed what numerous other professionals could not says it all. What impressed me the most was Sara's genuine confidence and willingness to go out of her way to help me. Despite my doubts, she told me from day one that she would have me riding pain free again. Furthermore, she fully accommodated my hectic traveling and racing schedule to have my bike fit, follow-ups, and orthotics all completed before I left town. Because of these qualities, Sara is not only an amazingly knowledgeable expert but maybe even more importantly, a pleasant and enjoyable person to work with.

Simply put, Sara is the best combination of bicycle fitter and physical therapist that I've ever come across. After seeing what she's done, there is no reason not to believe that everyone can ride a bike both comfortably and pain-free."
