Total Heart Rate Training shows anyone participating in aerobic sports, from novice to expert, how to increase the effectiveness of his or her workout. It's like having a personal trainer guide the reader step-by-step during exercise. By following the author's carefully constructed program and utilizing a heart rate monitor, readers can coach themselves — knowing when to push harder and when to back off. This guide teaches readers how to use the latest tools, including training analysis software and new high-tech intensity measuring devices, for precise training that practically guarantees success while minimizing the chance of injury. The author also makes it easy to use new gizmos such as power meters and GPS units that allow readers to compare the body's input, as measured by heart rate, with output. Section for novices show how to use a heart rate monitor for the first time while chapters aimed at experienced athletes describe how to gain that extra competitive edge thanks to heart rate training.

Customer Rating:  
Summary: Very helpful resource...
Comment: This is a great book that will help any endurance athlete begin to develop a strategy and be smarter about planning workouts. It is straightforward and readable, a great reference. My cycling performance has definitely improved now that I am able to understand and focus on heart rate zones.
Customer Rating:
Summary: How to get more from your HR monitor
Comment: Basically this book directs the reader to get the most of his Heart rate monitor and helps very well to change the reader into a more dedicated amateur or professional athlete by giving us the information (always backed with scientific literature) and the more pragmatical advises to improve our training. I find very easy to follow the books instructions in order to find my lactate threshold and organize an annual training plan (something I haven't). I think the book was written with a lot of expertise behind the author and he actually put all that info and experience in the hands of the reader. With that, the simplest Heart rate monitor transforms itself in a powerful tool.

Summary: Total heart rate training
Comment: This book was o.k. in the sense that it did explain certain useful aspects of training with a monitor that you would not recieve elsewhere. I felt that book had a lot of fillers that were hard to understand and did not really apply to the layperson looking for basic information on how to get the most out of your monitor.
I have used a heart monitor in some form for the last 15 years, and I have been looking for a book that would be a one stop manuel. I would recommend this book to the athlete that is detail oriented, but would not give this book to first time users of heart monitors;there are better ones out there for that purpose. All in all, you will find this book useful for some aspects of your training.

Customer Rating:
Summary: complete and controversial
Comment: The author clearly has a wealth of knowledge and practical experience with heart rate monitors and heart rate monitor training. If you're looking for a "beginner's guide to using a heart rate monitor" this might be a little too complex for you.
However, if you are a serious athlete whose sport requires caridovascular strength and endurance, then this book is a great fit for you.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very informative - almost too much
Comment: As with other Friel books I've read, there is an abundance of outstanding, detailed and reasoned information in this book. Probably more detail than any non-professional athlete needs, but it is an outstanding resource. I think it is well worth the money for someone who wants to understand the physiology and theory regarding workouts in order to maximize his/her fitness.
