I recommend this book for cyclists seeking more insight into this great sport.” — Kevin Livingston, Former Tour de France Cyclist and Coach Bike cycling has become a truly revolutionary exercise. Not only does it increase cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, and flexibility, but it prevents and manages disease, decreases stress levels and body fat as well as improves posture and coordination. However, individuals who are new to structured training may become discouraged or frustrated. More often than not, it’s due to a lack of trained perseverance, which can only be gained with time and patience. The Guide to Truly Effective Cycling places a strong emphasis on the mentality behind cycle training and racing. Written for amateurs as well as seasoned professionals, this book delivers invaluable information about training, nutrition, and cycling tactics. Pav Bryan, Director at Spokes and BikeEtc Magazine’s Cycling Guru, attempts to show how an amateur athlete can make the best improvements in a unique way, without it becoming an unbearable challenge—or a chore—to read. "This book is a great first step for anyone wanting to achieve their full potential on the bike." — Alain Lambert, CEO of Haute Route
