Drawing upon the same programme he designed for 7-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong, Olympic and U.S. Cycling Team coach Chris Carmichael shows men and women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond how to build fitness on a realistic schedule that fits into the busy lives of today's active middle-agers. Complete with training plans, case studies, nutritional guidelines, and success stories, The Time-Crunched Cyclist is the book working professionals and parents have been waiting for. There are no shortcuts; the book's plans require dedication to high-intensity workouts that are based on the same principles Carmichael uses to train top-level pros. The payoff is competitive cycling fitness in less time than previously thought possible. Cycling is more fun when you are fit, and now great fitness is achievable for cyclists who thought their best performances evaporated along with their free time.
