Paula Newby-Fraser's Peak Fitness for Women
Seven-time Ironman triathlon champion Newby-Fraser presents guidelines, techniques, and principles for female athletes--especially experienced runners, bikers, and swimmers--to attain peak fitness. Reaching peak fitness, she says, involves three components--cardiovascular conditioning, strength workouts, and flexibility training. To master them, she offers a series of static stretching exercises, a strength-training workout plan, training schedules, advice on nutrition and fluid requirements, and counsel on mental preparedness. The 75 photographs and other illustrations will enhance the presentation.Sue-Ellen Beauregard
