The Menstrual Cycle in Sport, Exercise, and Physical Activity is the first book to offer students, researchers, and professionals an evidenced-based reference on considerations and concepts relevant to sports performance and physical activity during menstruation and the menstrual cycle, showcasing multidisciplinary perspectives in sub-disciplines of sport and exercise science, including physiology, psychology and biomechanics, and social science.
This new book presents research insights and theoretical underpinnings as it explores targeted interventions to support sport, exercise, and physical activity engagement during all parts of the menstrual cycle.
Bringing together internationally leading researchers to present a range of research and practice issues connected to menstruation and the menstrual cycle in various physical activity environments, The Menstrual Cycle in Sport, Exercise, and Physical Activity examines key topics such as the impact of menstruation on sport training and performance, menstrual health literacy in sport, menstrual health monitoring, and menstrual stigma.
The Menstrual Cycle in Sport, Exercise, and Physical Activity is key reading for researchers, undergraduate and postgraduate students and practitioners and coaches working with menstruators in sport, exercise, and physical activity settings, providing a useful resource for inquiry, discussion, and learning about menstruation and the menstrual cycle in sport, exercise, and physical activity.
Petra Kolić, PhD is a senior lecturer and social scientist in the Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences at Manchester Metropolitan University, UK. Her work uses sociological theory to make sense of menstrual experiences and menstrual stigma within situations of daily life, including sport, exercise, and physical activity. Through in-depth qualitative methods, her research raises awareness, and offers avenues for interventions to improve knowledge, communication, and confidence of those involved in engaging and support engagement in sport, exercise, and physical activity during menstruation. Christopher Morse, PhD is a Reader in Clinical Exercise Physiology in the Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences at Manchester Metropolitan University, UK. His work in the field of menstruation has worked towards understanding the role of menstrual hormones and oral contraception on physiological outcomes. In recent years, his research in this field has focused on understanding how physical and physiological variables associated with menstruation may impact upon physical activity avoidance.
