Worse still, of that 6%, only 8% was found to be of high enough quality for the outcomes to be trusted.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWomen go through various life stages, with each moment bringing a new set of challenges and opportunities. Yet we rarely speak openly about these, or share our knowledge and solutions with each other. We use euphemisms to describe periods rather than saying the word. We don't acknowledge leakages or admit that we don't know how to find our pelvic floor or even what it does. We buy trendy sports bras without thinking how they work for breast health or exercise performance. We see young women giving up exercise in their teens to the detriment of their health at an older age. We barely mention the menopause.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody literacy is something every woman is entitled to. Health and fitness are not the same as aesthetics and photogenics. Instead of prioritising how a body looks we need to focus on how it feels and functions. How it works. When we listen to the body, embrace it and nurture it, health and fitness will follow.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMerging the expertise of sports research scientist Dr Emma Ross, athletic coach Baz Moffat and NHS doctor Bella Smith, The Well HQ champions the non-negotiables when it comes to understanding our health and wellbeing as women, throughout all stages of our lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e©2023 Baz Moffat, Bella Smith, Emma Ross (P)2023 Penguin Audio\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin UK","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49399333978416,"sku":"BDhhtf","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/hhtf-Square-cover.jpg?v=1776559355","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-hhtf","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
