Beschreibung

<p>'<b>Fun</b>, rooted in science... May this book <b>give all women strength </b>for the times we now live in.' Cat Bohannon<br><br><b>A myth-busting vindication of women's physical strengths</b><br><br>For decades, Starre Vartan - like most women - was told that having a woman's body meant being weaker than men. Like many women, she mostly believed it. <br><br>Not anymore. <br><br>Following a half decade of research into the newest science, Vartan shows in <i>The Stronger Sex</i> that women's bodies are incredibly powerful, flexible, and resilient in ways men's bodies aren't. Tossing aside the narrow notion of the tall, muscular man as the measure of strength, Vartan reveals the ways that women surpass men in endurance, flexibility, immunity, pain tolerance, and the ultimate test of any human body: longevity.<br><br>In interviews with dozens of researchers from biology, anthropology, physiology, and sports science, plus in-depth conversations with runners, swimmers, wrestlers, woodchoppers, thru-hikers, firefighters, and more, <i>The Stronger Sex</i> squashes outdated ideas about women's bodies.<br><br>It's a celebration of female strength that doesn't argue "down with men" but "up with us all."</p>
