Customer Rating:

Summary: It's a MUST read
Comment: This book is an all time classic, and a book that every triathlete must read. It's the perfect practical guide to periodization in training for triathlon. Medium to advanced triathletes will be able to plan a very good training after reading this book. Novice triathletes will get much help in understanding the thousands of training programs that one can find free around the web.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Serious training for serious cyclist
Comment: Very good book but it is not for everybody. It gives you a lot of details with a scientific approach.
This book assumes that that will be doing your homework keeping track of several statistics and metrics. It can get a little bit tricky so you need to be patient.

Customer Rating:

Summary: This is now my bible
Comment: The author suggests that the target audience of this book is more focused on people with a few years of racing experience, however, as a first year racer, I've found the book to be one that I cannot do without. I consult the book each week when planning my weekly rides, and I look forward to revisiting several parts of the book again once I hit the off season and need to come up with an overall plan to move ahead in racing next year.
