Fast + fit from 50
by Joe Friel. How to train and compete successfully for many years to come
This title is for all masters who continue to enjoy shooting, still enjoy shooting or enjoy it for the first time. Whether in competition or just for training to stay fit or get fit, because that's when you feel the best.
Friel explains very clearly here what sport and getting older are all about, what you should pay attention to when doing sport and in general, and above all that the much-advocated "slowing down" is not exactly the best option. This helped me enormously, also in terms of motivation for anything that involves the taste of blood in your throat on the bike.
Friel is one of the people behind the training platform Trainingpeaks, now in his seventies and a lifelong competitive cyclist and triathlete. I met him and his son Dirk years ago at the Ironman in Hawaii and in addition to their technical expertise, I can definitely confirm that they really have the drive.
Sporting greats like Mark Allen, Ned Overend and the biomechanics and fitting guru Dr. Andrew Pruitt round out the book, which you will definitely pick up again and again!
