Product Description

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 (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. 9 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 include:

  • * New and Experienced plans for criterium, road race, and cyclocross
  • * New, Experienced, and Competitive plans for century rides and Gran Fondos
  • * Gravel racing and ultraendurance mountain biking plan
  • * 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, and highly motivating. It also adds the Time-Crunched Diet, a sports nutrition approach designed to help riders lose weight while enjoying delicious recipes from chefs Michael Chiarello and Matt Accarrino. Other updates include new guides for hydration, managing heat stress, and recovery.
