There are many differences between women and men in anatomy, physiology, hormones, and metabolism. So why do most training programs take a one-sex-fits-all approach? A female's training program should be strong enough for a man, but made for a woman. This Run-Fit CEC course delves into the science of a woman, providing comprehensive information on training female runners based on their cardiovascular, hormonal, metabolic, muscular, and anatomical characteristics. Topics include the impact of the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, menopause, the female athlete triad, female-specific injuries, nutrition, and how to use sex differences to a woman's advantage.
