About Get Back In The Game: Overcoming The Eight
Product Description 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: Why women need to eat, drink, and move differently than men. How making a few, simple dietary changes can lead to a long-term solution for easy, effortless eating, endless energy, exceptional endurance, and a leaner, stronger body. Why healthy cells form the foundation of a healthy body and determine a woman’s overall capacity for peak physical and mental performance. What anatomical differences influence female digestion, why women are more prone to digestive dysfunction, and how these imbalances can compromise their body composition, mood, immunity, and more. How women can sleep their way to better health, improved athletic performance, and a quicker, more complete recovery from strenuous training, illness, and/or injury. How women can assess the functional health of their thyroid and adrenal glands without the use of laboratory testing. How women can benefit from the use of wearable, health-tracking technology—without becoming overly analytical or having it become a time-consuming chore. Review What inspired you to write this book? As a competitive, older athlete, I've had my fair share of health and performance ups and downs over the years. And as a women's health coach, I learned early in my career that my struggles weren't all that unusual. A few years ago, I decided to research illness and injury rates among men and women. I wrote Get Back in the Game to share what I found: that women and men differ in ways that are rarely discussed. What can you tell me about the book? Get Back in the Game is about empowerment through awareness. For decades, active women have essentially been trained and treated as if they were small men. And it hasn't been working that well. While research into women's specific health and performance is gaining momentum, my book will provide women with a summary of the eight most common obstacles female athletes of all ages and ability levels face. It explains why these health and performance hurdles exist and offers insights into how they can be conquered What did you learn wh ile writing Get Back in the Game? That nearly a third of the 20,000 or so genes that men and women share work differently inside the female body. Because of this, women respond differently to dietary interventions, athletic training programs, physical and emotional stress. Prescription medications affect them differently. They exhibit different symptoms and early warning signs for strokes and heart attacks. None of this information is widely known since women are so often excluded from studies
