Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in a revised and expanded third edition, the aims of The Active Female are threefold: first, to increase the awareness of wellness and fitness issues for active females and their family members; second, to provide an avenue for medical practitioners, allied health professionals, health educators/providers, and certified individuals in sports medicine/athletics to gain critical, updated knowledge of a field specific to active females; and third, to introduce the concept of obesity as a growing health concern even for normal weight individuals. Part I of the book offers a foundation for understanding the interrelationships between female physiology, body image and other psychological issues, the female reproductive cycle, and the musculoskeletal anatomy and physiology of females that makes their health risks and concerns unique. In Part II, the concepts of eating disorders from a global perspective and the health disparities and inequities in women’s health are discussed in detail. Part III describes the prevention and management of common musculoskeletal injuries in active females across the lifespan, including the management of osteoporosis. Appropriate exercise and nutritional guidelines and recommendations for active females are discussed in detail in Parts IV and V. Part VI is a new addition to the book and highlights the obesity epidemic and co-morbid diseases associated with obesity even for normal weight obese individuals. Each chapter is bookended by clear learning objectives and review questions for additional pedagogical appeal. An invaluable addition to the literature, The Active Female: Health Issues throughout the Lifespan, 3e will be of great interest to all clinicians and allied health care professionals concerned with women’s health and related issues, from sports medicine and family practitioners to endocrinologists, gynecologists and orthopedic surgeons.

Book excerpt: In the acclaimed documentary The Heart of the Game, audiences first came to the attention of the Roosevelt Roughriders, a Seattle varsity girls basketball team, and their charming but unorthodox coach Bill Resler. The film portrayed vividly Resler’s unique coaching skills, which asks for "all-out aggression on every possession," while at the same time bearing in mind that players should value above all fun moreso than winning or losing. Collectively, the lessons and stories in the book offer an inspiration to develop competitiveness, teamwork, and self-confidence, attributes that’ll come in handy both on and off the court. This book is especially an ideal text for both teenagers looking to improve their sports skills and develop their personality, as well as for their parents. It will also be cherished by those who loved The Heart of the Game and want to know more about Resler and his coaching.

Download or read book The Female Coach as a Role Model for Personal Growth and Development to the Female Adolescent Athlete written by Tammy Campbell and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research interest on the topic of female coaches as role models has recently emerged in the coaching literature. Social learning theory (Bandura, 1963; 1977; 1986) has also emerged as an essential framework in explaining learning through modeling. Previous research has examined the coach as a role model, as well as gender differences between coaches. Several authors, with several different conclusions, have studied the significance of gender as an influencer in role modeling. Whitaker and Molstad in 1988 conducted a study focusing on the coach as a role model. What they found was when they combined the results of high school and college aged athletes; the female coach was considered to be a superior role model. The current research used a social learning theory framework to examine the benefits and intricacies of the modeling relationship between female adolescent athletes and influential female coaches. To accomplish this task, the formative experiences of thirteen adolescent female athletes were examined. Each athlete was interviewed, with each semi-structured interview focusing on extracting the salient features of a coach that the athlete identified as being the most influential in her personal development. The data from these interviews were quaHtatively analyzed using case studies. From case studies, a template emerges in which the coach/athlete relationship can be seen as an essential construct in which caring and strong role models can have lasting effects on the lives, values, and successes of adolescent female athletes.
Download or read book You Let Some Girl Beat You written by Ann Meyers Drysdale and published by Behler Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ann Meyers Drysdale is still the only woman ever to sign a no cut contract with the NBA. Time Magazine recently called her one of "The Top Ten Female Sports Pioneers of All Time." The first 4-time All American ever, man or woman; Ann won a silver medal in the '76 Olympics before bringing UCLA women their one and only Championship. The only woman ever invited to compete in ABC's Men's Superstars, today Ann is the only female VP on the only operation side of the NBA and an award-wining broadcaster who has worked for over thirty years with nearly every major television network But her meteoric rise wasn't without controversy. The press skewered her '79 NBA Pacers bid, while the first Professional Women's Basketball League accused her of "shamming herself" and slighting her sisters. Ann simply wanted to play basketball. And she wanted to play with the best. The first girl to play in an all-boy after school sports program, Ann later tried out for the boy's high school basketball team while parents screamed, "You're letting some girl beat you?" and classmates questioned her sexuality; but Ann refused to be held down. From becoming the first female to get a full athletic scholarship to a Division I school, to her historic NBA bid, Ann's memoris never let up, yet her athletic career is only half the story. She would endure the loss of a brother and a sister, and the untimely death of the only man she ever loved, Dodger great, Don Drysdale, leaving her with three young children to raise. Still, through it all, she continued to break ground. Book jacket.
