description: Inside Triathlon, August 2003 The Waterproof Waterproof Workouts for Triathletes is one of a new breed of books produced for active Not only does the title contain great workouts but it is also printed on waterproof paper, so you can take it to the pool.The Waterproof Triathlete is the second book from Thomas Denes. As with his first book, The Waterproof Coach, Denes has teamed up with an expert, in this case pro multisport athlete Desiree Ficker, to craft an innovative book full of swim-bike-run workouts.After a very brief but humorous introduction to some training terms, Denes goes straight into the workout section, where the book s real value lies. The center 18 pages are die-cut from the page edge to the spiral binding, divining each page into three flip cards.Each of the three stacks lists a workout for one of the triathlon disciplines plus a mantra-like workout tip. Printed double-sided, this gives the reader 36 unique workouts in each of the tree disciplines. Flip the cards at random, Denes writes, and the book offers "over 10,000 possible workout combinations."The book assumes that the reader has a fair amount of fitness and experience, and the workouts are aimed at the advanced novice to intermediate athlete in complexity and duration.It s a refreshing and humorous book that will blow the cobwebs out of any fitness plan. At $29.95, it may help your racing better than any titanium bike parts or fancy running shoes.Book DescriptionThe Waterproof Triathlete is a unique, self-paced workout book for triathletes. This book is completely waterproof and tear-proof, making it a valuable addition to the pool deck and gym bag. Triathletes can take the book to the pool, ride or run and plan their workout. Each page of workouts is die cut into three segments--the first segment contains a swim workout, the second a ride workout, and the third a run workout. The book can easily be configured into over 10,000 different combinations of workouts. In other words, if the book is used six days a week, it would take over 40 years before the same workout is repeated! Never have another boring workout!! Makes a great gift for that triathlon addict in your life!
