Cyclists Build Power and Endurance with Weight Training for Cyclists

VeloPress is pleased to announce the

release of Weight Training for Cyclists: A Total Body Program for Power and
Endurance by Ken Doyle and Eric Schmitz. The book is now  available in the
U.K. at good bookshops or direct from www.cordee.co.uk.

Cyclists need more than just powerful quads and chiseled calves. Cyclists
need total body strength-a strong core and solid upper body-to ride with
power and endurance. Put simply, stronger muscles last longer and  stabilise
the body, improving technique and efficiency.

Weight Training for Cyclists is the only book available that shows cyclists
how they can get stronger to ride stronger. The authors explain how strength
training in the weight room translates to endurance and power on  the bike.
New in this second edition are easy-to-follow drawings that clearly
demonstrate strength training exercises. Doyle and Schmitz update exercises
to include the newest weight training equipment and present  the latest
information from new research on core strength, nutrition, stretching, and
warm-up.

Weight Training for Cyclists presents a series of training plans that
require only a fraction of the time that cyclists spend in the saddle. For
newcomers and veterans alike, Weight Training for Cyclists will become their
fundamental guide to better performance.
