Subject: The OTHER Dr. Phil's Triathlon Training Book Now Available! A while back, I realized that much of the training information on the net (and in print, for that matter ) is heavy on the "how" and light on the "why". When I went looking for the "why", I found that there was almost nothing in the lay press that talked about this, at least not very accurately. I began a project to change that. It has culminated in the publication of my book Scientific Training for Triathletes.
Ever wonder what terms like LT, VO2max, or efficiency really mean? Ever wonder what the scientific literature actually says about these things? Ever have questions about diet and/or supplements? Ever wanted to read about these things in english, and not in science-speak? Look no further. Scientific Training for Triathletes answers all these needs and more. It will teach you what you need to know to design your training based on what science knows of how the body works. It will help you train more efficiently, and more importantly, safely and without gimmicks.
Scientific Training for Triathletes is extensively foot-noted and referenced to the latest sports and physiology publications and information. If you read something that interests you, or that you perhaps do not believe, I have made it possible to track down the exact source of the information on your own. In other words, you don't need to take my word for any of it! You can find the original data and make your own judgement.
The book is available from my website at www.physfarm.com, and is priced to move at $10 plus $2.50 shipping and handling. You can read the table of contents, as well as the preface there.
Feel free to e-mail me at [email protected] for more info, or drop by the site to have a look.
