Synopsis
Like a safety helmet, Arnie Baker's BICYCLING MEDICINE is a must for the cyclist. Dr. Baker, a cyclist himself, extends the scope of each section way beyond the usual topics. In diet and nutrition he covers hydration, nutrition while riding, and nutrition quackery; his physiology section includes important topics such as optimal cadence, lactic acid, and thresholds, as well as genetic ability; and in his sections on medical problems and health, he of course covers crotchitis, but also gastrointestinal problems and sleeping hints. Dr. Baker advises on special issues for both the young and the aging, and points specific to men and to women. This is not a first-aid book or a training manual, per se, but it is a creatively produced, comprehensive guide with practical advice for the cyclist who wants to stay healthy.

Publisher's Note
More and more people, from kids to seniors, are taking to the roads or exploring the wilderness on two wheels -- and many of them are suffering unnecessary discomfort, accidents, and injuries. Bicycling Medicine provides cyclists with invaluable advice on preventing and treating all kinds of bicycling-related aches and pains. It explains how to diagnose minor and major problems, offers do-it-yourself solutions, and alerts readers to conditions that require a doctor's attention. A special section on bicycling physiology illuminates the demands cycling puts on the body; and thorough discussions about diet, exercise, and nutrition explain the best ways to meet those physical demands.
