Book Reviews of The Cyclist's Training Bible

Book Review: Excellent reference
Summary: 5 Stars

This book gives additional background on how to train and peak for races. It gives more detail than "Training and Racing with a Power Meter". It has stretching and weight training sections as well. If you race, this is much cheaper than paying $200/month for a coach.

Summary of The Cyclist's Training Bible

The Cyclist?s Training Bible is the bestselling and most comprehensive training book for serious cyclists. New in this fourth edition are updates on all the latest advances in cycling training including training with a power meter, smarter approaches to recovery and fatigue management, a new approach to strength training, and updates to body composition and nutrition. All the charts, tables, and illustrations are now in a two-color format, making The Cyclist?s Training Bible even easier to use.

The Cyclist?s Training Bible has equipped thousands of cyclists for success in the sport. Using Friel?s Training Bible methodology, cyclists create a comprehensive, self-coached training plan that is both scientifically proven and shaped around their personal goals.


"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.
