Book Reviews of The Triathlete's Training Bible
Book Review: If you want to know HOW , read it
Summary: 5 Stars
Thanks for this Book. With some knowledge of sport, your will enjoy the WHY's and HOW's of Tri. This book is not "3 step to do a Tri". If you are new to sport get this book for next year, and will get the most from it.
Thru the book You may understand what is going to happend in the process to become a better athlete. IF you are a serious athlete (PRO, AGE, CLYD) this is "CONSULTINg BOOK", to read time to time, and found that WOW!!... "now I got it!...that's Why!!!,
Personally I do not like "bible" title, but I may said that Joe is an authority in the SPOTS
Book Review: triathlete's training bible
Summary: 5 Stars
i never like the word "bible" in a book title...kinda offensive to me...but i have to say, if there is a bible for triathletes, this would be it. Very complete as to how your body functions ... written for those who want to understand, not just grab a training plan. This may have more info than most people want, but the more you know, the more successful you can be in setting up your plan. However, no actual training plans are laid out, so i recommend Bernhardt's book (training plans for multisport athletes) along with this for a complete guide to your planning.Book Review: A must have!
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a great book that I would recommend to everyone! I bought this to help me prep for an IM, but anyone who is training any of the disciples in the book will learn something by reading it. This is the best training book I have read.
The only thing that was not relevant to me was the how to make your own training schedule section because I already had a training plan.
This book is a very fast read and very interesting!
Book Review: Well-written & High Quality Material
Summary: 5 Stars
Reading this book from Joe Friel is very interesting and insightful for athletes of all kinds. With a huge variety in the kinds of triathlons and athletes, Friel does a masterful job at sharing the latest research in a concise, easy to read format. And if you want to read more, often there is a citation or something related to that topic that gives you just that. But at the same time, this book covers a great depth of content and topics.Book Review: perfect book
Summary: 5 Stars
bought this for my wife as a present and she loved it. She has not done many Tri's before and wanted to step it up and really start training and someday do a Ironman. She is an experienced runner, so the level of this book was perfect! If you have never exercised in your life, this might be a bit much. Most people thinking about doing a Tri has some exercise background and this book is perfect for that!
