Description
Bloomsbury presents The Obree Way by Graeme Obree, read by David Monteath
'A must-read book to make you faster on the bike' – Cycling Weekly
'Graeme Obree is genius in the true sense of the word' - Sir Chris Hoy, multiple Olympic cycling champion
A fully updated edition of twice world hour record holder and twice world 4000m pursuit champion Graeme Obree's popular guide to cycling.
No one but Graeme Obree has the clarity of vision to get to the heart of the 'problem' of how to improve as a racing cyclist. His innovative approach took him to the top of world cycling, twice breaking the world hour record.
This practical guide to revolutionising your cycling training – applicable to all cyclists, from the weekend warrior to the serious competitor – swerves conventional wisdom and strips cycling back to its elements, always asking the question: 'What actually improves my race time?'
Fully updated, this cycling classic reveals Graeme Obree's radical insights into technique, training, psychology and diet, and the clear logic behind them. It is certain to help cyclists get the most out of their training.
