The Time-Crunched Cyclist reveals the fastest way to get fit for
road racing, century rides, gravel grinders, cyclocross, Gran
Fondos, and mountain bike events. With elite cycling coach Chris
Carmichael's innovative, time-saving approach, busy cyclists will
develop fitness, speed, and power in just 6 hours a week. Now
powered by Strava, this updated third edition of The Time-Crunched
Cyclist training program taps into the most popular cycling social
network to help cyclists get fired up to crush their workouts, one
segment at a time. Through his popular endurance coaching service,
Carmichael noticed that many busy cyclists are unable to make
performance gains using conventional training methods; they simply
don't have enough time to train. So CTS developed a new
approach-the Time-Crunched Training Program-to help cyclists
achieve competitive fitness and power without the impossible time
demands of traditional training methods. The Time-Crunched Cyclist
shows cyclists how to build fitness on a realistic schedule by
tapping the power of high-intensity interval training (HIIT)
workouts. Cyclists learn the science behind this alternative
approach to training before performing the CTS field tests to get a
baseline reading of their fitness. Nine comprehensive training
plans include effective time-crunched workouts, nutrition
guidelines, and strength training to develop the speed and
endurance for a wide variety of cycling races and events. The new
Time-Crunched Training Plans cover: * New and Experienced plans for
criteriums, road races, and cyclocross * New, Experienced, and
Competitive plans for century rides and Gran Fondos * Gravel racing
and ultraendurance mountain biking plans * Intermediate and
Advanced plans for commuters This new, third edition integrates
Strava, the popular ride tracking and analysis program. Powered by
Strava, the Time-Crunched program becomes interactive, social,
highly motivating-and focuses riders on the training data that
matters most. It also adds the Time-Crunched Diet, a sports
nutrition approach designed to help riders optimize their
power-to-weight ratio with new guidelines on eating behaviors and
delicious recipes from chefs Michael Chiarello and Matt Accarrino.
A new chapter on hydration and managing heat stress will show
athletes simple ways to avoid overheating that lead to better
performance. The Time-Crunched Cyclist can help you capture your
best performance-all in the time you have right now.
