Using research on female physiology and its effects on physical performance and psychology, this book informs physical practitioners and athletes on how best to navigate and take advantage of the female body's cycles during physical training.

This detailed, yet approachable guide distils the latest research studies on female physiology and its effects on physical performance and psychology. Using these new findings, it provides a framework for optimizing physical training with the natural cycles of the female body, helping your clients make the most of their individual body-mind system.

It pays special attention to the changing conditions within the female body across different life stages and experiences, and how to best manage/maximize them. This includes the monthly hormone cycle, pregnancy, breastfeeding, menopause as well as contraceptives, conditions like PCOS and endometriosis, and more.
