I’m looking for a training book (or a _very_ comprehensive website) on behalf of an older cycling newbie. He wants a book kind of like this [running book](http://www.amazon.com/Running-Well-Sam-Murphy/dp/0736077456/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1302199164&sr=1-1) - it’s basically a book that has all the kinds of exercises and stretches a physiotherapist would assign to prevent (or treat) injury. I have training books, but nothing like what’s he’s looking for, and I can’t think of anything off the top of my head. Any suggestions? (I guessed this is an IMHO kind of thing, but maybe it’s a Cafe or Game thing?)
