About this listen

Women are not small men. Stop eating and training like one.

Because most nutrition products and training plans are designed for men, it's no wonder that so many female athletes struggle to reach their full potential. ROAR is a comprehensive, physiology-based nutrition and training guide specifically designed for active women. This book teaches you everything you need to know to adapt your nutrition, hydration, and training to your unique physiology so you can work with, rather than against, your female physiology. Exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist Stacy T. Sims, PhD, shows you how to be your own biohacker to achieve optimum athletic performance.

Complete with goal-specific meal plans and nutrient-packed recipes to optimize body composition, ROAR contains personalized nutrition advice for all stages of training and recovery. Customizable meal plans and strengthening exercises come together in a comprehensive plan to build a rock-solid fitness foundation as you build lean muscle where you need it most, strengthen bone, and boost power and endurance. No matter what your sport is - running, cycling, field sports, triathlons - this book will empower you with the nutrition and fitness knowledge you need to be in the healthiest, fittest, strongest shape of your life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

incredible book!

I absolutely love this book and will recommend any female athlete to read it. it teaches about so much of our anatomy and physiology, but we should and shouldn't be doing when it comes to sports nutrition training, menstrual cycles etc. it is fascinating and I took away so much from it!

Thorough and educational

I enjoyed this read as I learned new things about myself and my training. It’s good to have a reference for women, the internet is too vast. I even bought a hard copy of this book to read and highlight.

Great for professional athletes!

The focus of this book was primarily for professional or intense athletes or at least people training on a level beyond mine. If you are someone who is just looking to be fit/heathy and don’t compete- you might find that there is a fair amount of the book that does not pertain to you. Having said that, I would be very interested in a book by this author that was more geared to your average person and/or one just focused on post menopausal women who want to be fit. She delivers scientific information in a way that is easily understood.

Every woman and coach should read this book

Very informative! I wish I’d had this information back when I’d started running ultras and doing Ironman.

I wish I knew this before

This is invaluable information for every woman athlete, of any level. I also got a paper copy of this book, which is a must if one actually intends to use the advice. The audible version is a great companion to the hard copy and gives you a great overview of what s init, while you are doing a workout as most of the readers of this likely don't spend much time sitting with a book.

Amazing!

I highly recommend this book! I listened to it in 3-5 days! I am an exercise physiologist and found it to be so well written, organized and researched.

So Much Information

As a woman in a very physical male dominated work industry, this book helped me understand why my body doesn't function the same way as men's bodies do. I injure myself a lot less than I used to. I am so grateful for the information in here.
