Agreed. I there should be basic training plans included in a “training bible”. I enjoy reading about triathlon and will use this book as a reference tool. However I won’t suck the enjoyment out of it trying to create a training plan from a set complex variables either.

L&L:

Here's a link to the book review for "Faster After 50" on Slowtwitch. Gives you more info on whether you may want to read the full book.

Louisn:

JWMott recommended "The Well-Built Triathlete". Below is the link for a Slowtwitch review of that book if interested.

What dissapointed you?

What I wrote:
"I must admit I could not really categorize the information to do something with it: I did not really understand it. "

Maybe it is that what other posters call here "overcomplicated".
But again: that was my impression, it is for others probably a very useful book.
