3 out of 5 stars Complete Triathlon Book - Review May 2008   May 23, 2008
I bought my Complete Triathlon Book ( Matt fitzgerald) in 2007. I compete in many Duathlons and a few Triathlons.I also run competively 1 or 2 times per week. In general im pretty competitive, like to be near the front, so was looking for lots of new tips etc . I would rate the book as ok. The cover looks great. To get my higher rating I would hope to see many more pictures ' preferably in color' to illustrate various beneficial tri techniques, equipment and ways to save those vital seconds.
I'm still looking for the perfect Tri Book.
To date I have found my best advice in seperate swim , bike and run books.

3 out of 5 stars Triathlon Book Review   January 7, 2008
A decent book. I wish they would have left out a lot of the mind mumbo jumbo stuff. Was looking for a basic training/equipment quide.


4 out of 5 stars complete triathlon book   September 24, 2007
This book is full of information about training for any kind of a triathlon, from sprint to ironman. Very informative


5 out of 5 stars Highly recommended!   September 15, 2007
I found this book very good. I first got it from the Library and then decided it was a book I wanted on my shelf. It covers all the bases for learning about, training for and performing in Triathlons. It is very up to date and very practical in it's approach. I am a novice and this book has made me feel quite competent in how to approach, prepare for and perform in triathlons. It is chock full of information and I highly recommend it if you're at all serious about improving your performance.


5 out of 5 stars The most scientific approach to triathlon I have encountered.   May 15, 2007

This book is by far the best scientific guide to the science of fitness and nutrition associated with triathlon. I have always had unanswered questions about carb consumption and storage, oxygen usage, aerobic, and anerobic thresholds. This book gave me more answers than any other I have ever read.
