Dario Fredrick – Head Coach & Founder

Dario Fredrick is the founder and owner of the Whole Athlete Performance Center. Having worked extensively with endurance athletes of all levels since 1994, Dario created Whole Athlete with the goal of integrating the disciplines of exercise science, biomechanics, sport psychology, nutrition, and Yoga to help athletes take a holistic approach to optimal performance.

In 2009 he founded the Whole Athlete Development Team, serving as Director, co-Director and Head Coach over a ten-year span. Throughout the Team’s decade of excellence, Dario coached and helped develop a large number of Junior and U23 athletes within the three-point philosophy of Dedication, Integrity, and Fun.

Dario is no stranger to bike racing himself and has competed extensively in road, gravel and mountain bike events – having dabbled in competitive swimming and triathlon as well.

In the area of applied sports science, Dario developed and validated a unique performance test protocol for cyclists, providing a non-invasive, accurate measurement of cycling training zones using power and heart rate. He has contributed articles to VeloNews, Cyclingnews.com, Bicycling Magazine, and Yoga Journal, and has served as the Physiological Advisor to the National Interscholastic Cycling Association and the NorCal High School MTB League.

“If you’re looking for a coach who can bring you to the top of your game, Dario is the one. From training to nutrition to bike fit to recovery, his expertise and supportiveness are unparalleled. I have learned so much from his “holistic” approach to many crucial aspects of training, and would highly recommend him to any athlete who wants to achieve a goal or pursue a dream.”
