One-Hour Workouts is a collection of 50 swim, bike, and run workouts from top triathlon coaches that anyone can fit into a lunch hour--including warm-up and cool-down.
If they could, most endurance athletes would love to set aside more time for training. But work, family, and real life too often get in the way of the cardinal rule for endurance athletes: never miss a workout.
One-Hour Workouts is the perfect solution for athletes who are pressed for time. These 50 workouts are tightly focused so that athletes can get a quality training session in just one hour. Athletes can choose from base, tempo, or speed workouts in each sport to match their training plan's goal for the day.
Former professional triathlete Scott Molina (The Terminator), Mark Newton, and Michael Jacques give athletes smart workouts that will complement their existing training and keep season goals on track even in the busiest of weeks.

I gave this book five stars because it is deserved. What frustrates me, however, is a lack of "advanced workouts" that coaches save for the athletes they are personally training. Even just one or two of those per discipline would have been nice (and that's really the only complaint I could come up with :-). Overall, this book is an excellent value. A few judicious purchases of other books with workouts combined with some internet research, and you'll have everything you need to fill in the workouts for an entire season of triathlon training.
Has bonus lifting routines at the back.
