Aprašymas

The first major guide for serious female cyclists - covering everything from saddles and training to hormones, strength, and nutrition, all from a 100% female perspective.

'We ride like there is no tomorrow and for a better tomorrow.' Marianne Vos

More of us women are getting on the bike. There's more female riders on the road and the number of pro women's teams has almost doubled. But the guidance available to us still lags behind, often based on research designed for male athletes. The Female Cyclist changes that.

Built on the powerful idea that women are not small men, this book challenges outdated training methods and reveals how to work with your unique physiology to unlock real gains in speed, endurance and recovery.

Written for committed riders who want to take their cycling to the next level, experienced cyclist and writer Lexie Williamson brings together everything you need to know: from choosing the right saddle to mastering training, understanding hormones, building strength and fuelling your body.

Each chapter is packed with expert insights from leading riders, coaches and specialists, translating cutting-edge science into clear, practical advice you can actually use on the road.

The Female Cyclist empowers you with the knowledge you need to ride with confidence and purpose. Whether you're chasing a faster time, longer distances, or simply a stronger, healthier ride, this is your essential companion.
