Recently, we have expe­ri­enced grow­ing inter­est in infor­ma­tion included in the text­book, Women’s Fit­ness Pro­gram Devel­op­ment. So, we decided that site read­ers might want to pur­chase this text if they are seri­ously inter­ested in sub­jects per­tain­ing to women’s health fit­ness. The book opens with a chap­ter on how women dif­fer from men in their phys­i­cal, men­tal, emo­tional and social devel­op­ment and how these dif­fer­ences affect our moti­va­tion to be active. Sec­tions on ado­les­cence, preg­nancy, the post­par­tum period and menopause explain what hap­pens dur­ing these crit­i­cal and uniquely female life tran­si­tions, what is known about the impact of exer­cise on health dur­ing these times, and how to develop effec­tive pro­gram­ming for these pop­u­la­tions. It is avail­able through the pub­lisher, Human Kinet­ics, or through Ama­zon or Barnes & Noble.
