Training and Racing with a Power MeterPosted by Blogmaster in Books (Bicycle Racing), tags: Meter, Power, Racing, Training
Product Description In only a few short years, power meters have become an essential training tool for amateur and pro cyclists and triathletes. The first edition of Training and Racing with a Power Meter was largely responsible for popularizing what was once an arcane technology understood by only a few elite coaches and trainers. Now the updated and revised second edition provides significant updates on technology, software tools, training protocols, and workouts, making the benefits of power-based training available to everyone. The new edition also includes specific information for triathletes—the fastest-growing segment in endurance sports—including a complete triathlon training plan. Other significant updates include reviews of the latest hardware, refinements and additions to training plans, additional case studies, more on monitoring fitness and chronic training loads, and revised and clarified artwork, charts and tables throughout. Training and Racing with a Power Meter, 2nd Ed., will continue to be the definitive guide to the most important training tool ever developed for endurance sports.

The Cyclist’s Training BiblePosted by Blogmaster in Books (Bicycle Racing), tags: Bible, Cyclists, Training
Product Description With The Cyclist’s Training Bible, riders can create a comprehensive training plan that’s both scientifically proven and shaped around their personal goals. Suitable for riders of all ability and experience levels, it discusses every detail athletes need to consider when planning a season, lining up a week of workouts, or preparing to race. Riders learn how to use power meters and other new training technologies to maximize form and fitness and reduce fatigue, how to build muscular endurance through strength training, how to improve body composition and recovery with smarter nutrition, and how to make changes to their annual training plan over the course of a season. With more case studies to draw from and multiple contingency plans for those times when training doesn’t progress as planned, this exhaustive yet easy-to-use guide is the ultimate resource for the self-coached rider. Amazon.com Review“Periodization,” nutrition, stretching, peaking–who knew that so much went into riding a bike? Joe Friel’s The Cyclist’s Training Bible is jam-packed with information, easily the most authoritative book on cycling to date. Friel, a lauded coach and masters athlete from Colorado, adopts the principles of Dr. Tudor Bompa, whose periodization training methods were used first by the dominant Eastern European athletes of the 1960s before becoming popular in the United States.
