197,60 €Endurance sports performance is not about magic workouts, fad diets, or special supplements. It is about understanding the human body and how it responds to physical work. Science provides us with the tools to come to that understanding. However, that science is often inaccessible to the average athlete. This book changes that.
Packed with over 400 references, Scientific Training for Endurance Athletes provides an evidence-based framework to analyze and improve your swimming, cycling or running. It includes not only the techniques Dr. Skiba has used to help his athletes set world records, but the scientific basis of those techniques explained in everyday language.
Although it contains example workouts and schedules, Scientific Training for Endurance Athletes does not provide canned training plans. Instead, Dr. Skiba teaches you the concepts you need to know in order to develop your own custom training program. You will learn to rigorously evaluate what you have done, and then make the adjustments necessary to better pursue your dream performance.
By the time you finish this book, you will understand that the secret is there is no secret.
Note: In addition to entirely new material, this work includes the information found in Dr. Skiba's out-of-print books (Scientific Training for Triathletes, and The Triathlete's Guide to Training with Power), updated to include the latest research in the field.
