Wellesley Business Buzz: Human Powered Health hosts grand opening; Dryft & Shake Shack hiring

May 30, 2024 by Bob Brown

The latest Wellesley, Mass., business news:

Human Powered Health grand opening

Human Powered Health invited the public to check out its completely refashioned space in Wellesley Square at 77 Central Street, 2nd floor (nice view of the Boston Marathon course!). Incredibly fit people showed up in force and gave their full attention to the fancy fitness-assessment equipment while generally passing by the spread of wraps and cookies.

The idea behind Human Powered fitness is sport science data, data, and more data, collected and used in the service of helping athletes from recreational to professional achieve their goals. Various tests educate athletes about their own anaerobic capacity, cognitive reactions, gait, resting metabolic rate, body composition, hydration and sweat; and more. Team members supply insights and recommendations based on individual assessment results.

We found the scene mildly intimidating, but the staff that includes physiologists, a physical therapist, and a massage therapist set us at ease. No matter how far gone we were from our past glory days, we were assured we could experience marked fitness improvement.
