Andrea Vendrame: When Performance Meets Biomechanics

OUR TESTIMONIALS

Andrea Vendrame is a professional Italian cyclist, born in Conegliano in 1994. Raised in the rich cycling tradition of the Veneto region, he quickly stood out for his talent and determination, qualities that led him to compete at the highest levels. He currently rides for Groupama-FDJ, one of the most prestigious teams on the international circuit.

Throughout his career, Vendrame has achieved important results, most notably his stage victories at the Giro d’Italia in 2021 and 2023.These triumphs confirmed him as one of the key figures in the professional peloton. Beyond his wins, he has proven himself to be a versatile rider, capable of competing in hilly stages as well as in races requiring endurance, always combining resilience with tactical intelligence.

In modern cycling, athletic preparation extends far beyond training on the road: posture and biomechanics have become integral to an athlete’s routine. The foot, in particular, plays a central role—it is the point where muscular forces are transmitted directly to the bicycle. Even minimal alterations in foot mechanics can lead to energy dispersion, premature fatigue, or joint pain.

For Vendrame, paying attention to biomechanical balance has made it possible to optimize pedaling efficiency, improve stability, and reduce the risk of overuse injuries.
Personalized orthotics and postural assessment have enhanced the effectiveness of each pedal stroke, ensuring that every watt of energy translates into performance on the road.

This experience highlights a key principle: top-level performance is never the result of talent and physical preparation alone, but also of attention to detail. Biomechanics and custom orthotics are not secondary elements, but essential tools to support athletes and unlock their full potential.
