Help Finding TRIMP information

I'm not training with power yet (don't have enough money for a PowerTap or SRM) but I do use a Garmin 305 with heart rate and cadence. I was hoping to quantify my training loads this winter, both indoors and out, using the TRIMP (training impulse) method but I don't have any info on it. I'm sure I read about it somewhere but I can't remember where. If anyone would be so kind as to give me a book title or a website to go to it would be greatly appreciated.

FWIW, my searches keep directing me to discussions about training loads using power metrics which I don't understand yet.



EDIT: Found this link http://www.pponline.co.uk/encyc/training-schedules.html which helped. If anyone has a title of a book referencing TRIMP, I'd still appreciate that.

Thanks in advance for your help,
Patrick
