Get Back in the Game: Overcoming the Eight Obstacles to Optimal Female Health and Performance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798682917853)

Get Back in the Gameis a must-read for any active woman. Whether you're struggling to stay healthy, happy, and fit or simply seeking a better understanding of your unique female physiology, this book is for you.

New York Times bestselling author Mark Sisson calls it, "The book active, health-minded women have been waiting for...a perfect blend of scientific insight, ancestral wisdom, and practical advice."

Readers describe it as an "insightful and empowering read that offers guidance and inspires confidence."

Women are different than men, in ways that extend far beyond basic anatomy. It's widely known that men and women differ in height, weight, body composition, and aerobic capacity, but they differ in terms of their predisposition to both illness and injury, too. Surprisingly, medical and exercise scientists are just beginning to acknowledge and understand the innate, underlying discrepancies that make women biologically, physiologically, and psychologically unique. While interest in women's specific health and performance research is rapidly gaining momentum, Get Back in the Game provides a timely and relevant bridge across the existing gender gap.

Read this book and arm yourself with all the actionable information you'll need to identify--and eliminate--the unseen obstacles standing between you and your health, performance, and recovery goals.

These are just a few of the many things you'll learn:
