Book: 7-Week Cycling for Fitness
I picked up this book a couple of weeks ago, and I'm finding it very useful in using my bike for exercising on the YNY plan. If you're relatively new to cycling, you'll want to check out other sources for more detailed info on bike fit and maintaining your bike, but this book is very good at what it advertises itself as: a bicycling fitness plan.
The workouts include warmup, cool-down, heart rate recommendations, riding technique lessons, and suggestions for complementary weight training (not a lot--just as a little supplement to the biking), and provide three levels of work, according to how fit you already are. Near the end of the book are suggestions for continuing to improve and ride more.
I like that the book offers info for novices as well as some new ideas and challenges for the not-so-novices, though if you're an accomplished cyclist, it probably isn't for you.
You may notice some unusual spellings, since the book was originally published in the UK, but that's a tiny, tiny thing that only an English teacher like myself would notice. As I said, it's been a very useful book for me so far--check it out.

I recently read the book "Bicycle Road Racing" by Edward Borysewicz. Wonderful and motivating reading, I also recommend it. I recently prepared a research paper on this topic and tried to use all my knowledge, as well as the information obtained from this book. I navigate to these guys to get quality help for my work. It's important for me that my work is presentable and has no mistakes.

Thanks for sharing book recommendations! I have now also started going for sport, but I like to read motivational books, for example, Gym Candy, did any of you read it? I found a summary of it at https://freebooksummary.com/category/gym-candy and really liked the idea of the book. Here, about life, motivation and victory!

Cycling is very cool, my favorite activity. But I don't have enough time for that. architecture homework https://assignmentshark.com/architecture-help.html doesn't allow me to do it, and the weather is wet in the yard now. But I like to read books precisely in such weather, when there is fog and mist in the yard. This book will be the next in my experience.
