[Shellyrides]

I have never heard of the plan. Can someone give me the jist of it?

It is a book that has a set of plans to help you get lean. Also In top riding shape! it does not have a set food plan but helps you under stand what and when to eat to get the most out of your work outs.You can get the book in soft cover or a ebook.

So good so far. 1 hour ride with 30 min weight training.

I'd like to try this too, though am too overwhelmed with life right now. First I will start with deciding if I want to buy the book, or start down the electronic reader path. I'll be following along with this thread though. Thanks for starting it!

(sometimes I think I make life harder than I need to)

Good luck to all you ladies with this! If I remember correctly, the best part of this book (and all her writing) is the focus on having fun!

I love to have the book in hand and a highlighter ready. I have already highlighted some of the best parts and important info.

I started with the electronic version, but found it hard to read the training plan tables on my e-reader. Sooo, ended up buying a hard copy of the book too.

So how many days a week to you ride/train/or cross train with this plan?
Just curious. My problem is fitting in both biking and running

Well your comments have helped with one decision - I'll go for the hard copy! Thanks.

ok, I just downloaded the book. I am large, soft and unmotivated right now! I promise to set my bike on the trainer and get started by tomorrow! I'll need the push ladies!

Ok I am reading the book and my bike is on the trainer. Baby steps!

I'm in!
Just bought my bike trainer yesterday, and ordered the book tonight.
I'm good with being lean, I have no desire to be "skinny".

Hang in there we are cheering for you !!- It may help to try to get outside ASAP... my take on biking (skiing, kayaking etc...) for fitness is that it is SO FUN you become addicted and would do it even if it wasn't good for your health and weight (: When I am stuck inside I think about my fav trails for motivation (: Another trick might be videos of places you want to ride in the future for that kick...(:
