Summary: Lance's performance program
Review: I highly recommend this book. It provides some personal information about Lance which is interesting. More importantly, however, it contains specific training advice with detailed training programs for all levels of riders. The book also discusses nutrition and strength training for cyclists with more attention to detail than I have seen in other books on this subject.

Summary: Good book for beginners - LIKE ME!
Review: I like that the book details every part of the bike, and Lance's preferences related to the part. However, I found that I wanted more "why" detail on these preferences.

Summary: Lance Armstrong Performance Program
Review: I purchased this book out of curiosity, but found that it has some very good information for cyclists of all levels. It contains some bits of personal information about Lance which are interesting; however, it also covers training programs, how to improve essential skills and techniques, along with how to eat for health and performance. As a bicycle commuter, I found many bits of information that I will be putting to use to improve my cycling each day. I recommend this book to cyclists of any level who want to improve their riding performance and skills.

Summary: Bested in Berlin
Review: I read this book ravenously and quickly digested its contents. Some of the advice-- especially his commenst about cycling in the off-season-- really hit home with me. But his comments about diet-- particularly laying off the sauerbrauten-- seemed excessive.Although I achieved great results by following the methods in this book, I did not quite obtain the results I desired. Maybe next year, jah?

Summary: This is what you really need
Review: I think this book is one of the best examples of what cycling and training is all about. Too many cyclists form beginners to pros are constantly looking for that magic workout of secret training plan that will make them the next superstar. The fact is, and what this book demonstrates superbly, is that in order to be a better/stronger cyclist you need to "train smarter". Contrary to popular belief, its not the quantity of your training, but the quality. This book helps more than any other I've read in detailing a QUALITY training program complete with everything you need from specific workouts to nutrition to weight training for cyclists. I am an elite level cyclist who for years has been training as hard as my body will allow. Now, because of this book, I have refocused my energy on quality workouts and a balanced program. The results have been amazing. I recommend this book to all levels of athletes, to anyone who wants to get the most out of their training.

Summary: Pathetic
Review: I was looking forward to the release of this book with a lot of exitement. After reading it in 1 afternoon I must say I was very dissapointed. The 7 week program is a joke and won't help anyone except maybe a beginner. Half the book is a reference to Lance's success. I think if you buy this book you want a book to help you with your training, not a story on the life of a great cyclist. Don't waste your money.

Summary: Bummer...
Review: I was so excited when this book arrived at my door, but my feelings quickly changed when I began reading. If you know very little about cycling, I would say this book is a decent choice, but for anyone else it's pretty much a waste. I was hoping to get so much more out of this book other than a nice addition to my coffee table.

Summary: A Big Disappointment
Review: I was very disappointed with this book. I've met Lance, and watched him race since his amateur days with Subaru-Montgomery, so I am a huge fan. This book is strictly for beginners. If you want a great training book, get Joe Friel's. It's much more realistic and easier to set up for the racing cyclist. I expected so much more from these two. I wonder if they even really wrote this thing, or just lent their names to it.
