Gearing up a level

A great deal of data collection was done to complete the chapter on bike fit. This chapter displays data to dispel the old myth that "women have shorter torsos than men." The chapter gives both genders informtion to help them select the right bicycle frame for their specific riding needs and body type. It also gives bike-fit information to help women and men customize bicycle settings for optimum performance and comfort.

This book is a "must buy" for any woman who rides a bike for fun and fitness, as it contains unique information on bike fit, a periodized strength-training program that blends with a cycling program, and specific, detailed training plans. It also focuses on important information specific to women's health, nutritional information as it relates to health and athletic performance, mental tools, and, finally, tips to make cycling more comfortable.
