I have written and co-authored number of books to help self-coached athletes. Some of the training plans from these books are available in an online format on the Active Network or Training Peaks.
Training Plans for Multisport Athletes – A book containing fourteen detailed training plans for triathlon, duathlon and X-Terra events. There are plans for sprint triathlons, Olympic triathlons, half-ironman distance triathlons and ironman-distance triathlons. This great training resource contains three, six-month plans and a year-long plan.
Training Plans for Cyclists - This book was written based on the large number of requests I received from road and mountain bike riders, that were familiar with Training Plans for Multisport Atheltes. They too wanted a book laid out for reaching new endurance goals, maintaining foundation fitness and racing. This book contains sixteen such training plans. The book is written as a reuseable resource, so you can mix and match various training plans. Self-coaching information is included as well.
Triathlon Training Basics – This book contains four detailed training plans to help first-time triathletes prepare for a sprint triathlon or an Olympic distance triathlon. Two plans are designed for already-fit beginners and two plans are for currently-unfit beginners. There are also four plans per sport (swimming, cycling and running) for individuals wanting to train for a triathlon as a single-sport team member. The plans can be used in succession, helping you progress from a triathlon team member to a triathlete. The book contains strength training, stretching and bike fit photos to help you get started on the right track. Bicycling for Women – Great chapters “for women only” and five training plans to help you complete a 50-mile bike ride, a century, a 40-kilometer time trial or faster group riding, a multiday tour or improve your hill climbing skills. This book is written on the premise that women can ride fast.
Workouts in a Binder® – I created “Workouts in a Binder®” product and co-authored the first edition of swim workouts for triathletes, which quickly sold out four printings. These handy workout cards help athletes and coaches optimize workouts and are waterproof to prevent destruction from water, sweat and dirt. This product is so popular, the series has expanded and will continue to grow.
In addition to my own books, there are several other books listed as recommended reading. Books that make this list are excellent resources.
