Product Description: Power meters are rapidly becoming an invaluable part of training and racing among professional cyclists and triathletes, amateurs looking for a competitive edge, and gear fiends. For coaches and athletes, these devices offer enormous potential for targeting and timing training to realize a riders goals. Yet few athletes or coaches understand how to interpret the data for optimal results, and few do more than consider the possibility of wattage training. Training and Racing with a Power Meter decrypts the layers of information and explains how to begin a program that effectively integrates power. Hunter Allen and Andrew Coggan have conducted extensive research and consulted with manufacturers to deliver the most sophisticated and scientific approach to training on the market, allowing riders to tap every last watt of power. The book includes cogent case studies, sample power workouts, and a chapter on the future of training and racing with these indispensable devices. Where to Buy
Reviews Training and racing with a power meter  by: on: 16-Nov 2009 If your goal is performance improvement, then this book is invaluable. A must have for people with a power meter. A Promotional book for a website  by: on: 25-Sep 2009 I was expecting this book to help me learn about my power meter and it's usage. I read over half of the book before I droped it. This book is for the "BIG RACER" not for someone that just wants to have fun and ride. From my understanding you need to buy webservice from them and ride for a little while and then spend twice as much time after each ride recording the information. What you eat, what you drank. What you ate and drank the night before and the morning of the ride. I guess the book is ok and would be worth having if you use their web service. Really seemed more like an instruction manual that should be given away free if you are a paying customer on their website. All charts in the book are from their website which you have to sign up for. training and racing with a power meter  by: on: 21-Sep 2009 It is a book with a lot of good information. Also a lot to digest the first time you read the book. You have everything you gain and nothing loses. Great book by: on: 09-Sep 2009 This is great book for an introduction to training with a power meter. Discusses specific power meters and the pros/cons of each. Then gives a good start to power and lot's of examples on how to use the power data and what it all means. I will be referring to this book often as I train.
