Greg Choat Bio: Greg's passion for bike fitting grew from his own misfortune. Unable to ride a bike, walk or run following a back injury he sought out professionals to help address his issues. The answers he sought could not be found in the bike industry at the time so he looked to the wider health community. His journey took him both eastern and western medical professionals, neurologists, kinesiologists, phycologists, chiropractors, physiotherapists, and some who's practice could not traditionally be described. After 14 months of inactivity, he returned to competition with a new appreciation of the human body and the many ways it can function. Greg is a Cat 1 USA Cycling Coach and Certified Skills Instructor, Functional Movement Specialist II, RKC HKC kettlebell Instructor & Precision Nutrition Master Coach. With over 20 years of fitting experience and 30 years coaching and continuing learning he is a journeyman in the world of human movement and sports performance.
