Book Le sport dans la vie d une femme

Download or read book Le sport dans la vie d une femme written by Christophe Delong and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comment être en bonne condition physique ? Quels sont les marqueurs de santé ou de fatigue ? Comment pratiquer ? Quels sports choisir ? Comment reprendre l'activité physique ? Quels bénéfices en attendre ? Comment éviter les désagréments du début ? Quelle prévention des traumatismes ? Quels sont les écarts alimentaires à proscrire ? Que manger, que boire ? A partir de son expérience, le docteur Christophe Delong répond à ces questions, en délivrant ses conseils aux débutantes comme aux sportives confirmées. Des explications précises sur le fonctionnement du corps féminin en mouvement sont apportées. Pour chacune des étapes de la vie de la femme - adolescence, grossesse, relations de couple, soins aux enfants, âge -, il indique les éléments d'une saine et plaisante pratique du sport. Il rejette régimes et programmes d'entraînement, tout en explicitant les écueils à éviter. Précis, érudit, pédagogue, par des anecdotes et la relation de certaines de ses expériences, il apporte l'éclairage que les femmes attendent : celui d'une médecine basée sur les faits mais attentive à leur vie de femme - qui travaillent pour la plupart -, de mère... ou de sportive de haut niveau.

Book Dressing Modern Frenchwomen

Download or read book Dressing Modern Frenchwomen written by Mary Lynn Stewart and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a glance, high fashion and feminism seem unlikely partners. Between the First and Second World Wars, however, these forces combined femininity and modernity to create the new, modern French woman. In this engaging study, Mary Lynn Stewart reveals the fashion industry as an integral part of women's transition into modernity. Analyzing what female columnists in fashion magazines and popular women novelists wrote about the "new silhouette," Stewart shows how bourgeois women feminized the more severe, masculine images that elite designers promoted to create a hybrid form of modern that both emancipated women and celebrated their femininity. She delves into the intricacies of marketing the new clothes and the new image to middle-class women and examines the nuts and bolts of a changing industry—including textile production, relationships between suppliers and department stores, and privacy and intellectual property issues surrounding ready-to-wear couture designs. Dressing Modern Frenchwomen draws from thousands of magazine covers, advertisements, fashion columns, and features to uncover and untangle the fascinating relationships among the fashion industry, the development of modern marketing techniques, and the evolution of the modern woman as active, mobile, and liberated.

Book Women  Sport  Society

Download or read book Women Sport Society written by Roberta Park and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last four decades women’s and gender history have become vibrant fields including studies of attitudes regarding the limited physical and other abilities of females as well as studies of the accomplishments of notable female athletes. We have become increasingly aware that women have made contributions to physical education, dance and sport that go far beyond being teachers, athletes and coaches. They have created and implemented an astonishing variety of programs intended to serve the needs of large numbers of children and youth sometimes organizing student health services, as well as chairing departments of physical education. They have worked as directors of sport, physical education and dance, running playgrounds and recreational facilities and have created and/or served as important officers of a variety of sporting organizations. This book explores the contributions and achievements of women in a variety of historical and geographical contexts which, not surprisingly opens opportunities for additions, revisions and counter-narratives to accepted histories of physical education and sport science. It seeks to broaden our understandings about the backgrounds, motivations and achievements of dedicated women working to improve health and bodily practices in a variety of different arenas and for often different purposes. This book was previously published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.

Book Sport and physical culture in Occupied France

Download or read book Sport and physical culture in Occupied France written by Keith Rathbone and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport and physical culture in Occupied France examines the Vichy state’s attempts to promote physical education and sports in order to rejuvenate French men and women during the Occupation. Through this cultural lens, it illuminates the central paradox of state power during the Vichy Regime. The state organised a centralised physical cultural programme meant to control and discipline French men and women. However, these activities instead empowered individuals and sporting associations to create spaces for individual expression, protect entrenched business enterprises, preserve republican institutions and organise sites for mutual aid and assistance. Based on extensive archival research, this innovative, multi-city analysis demonstrates how French sporting federations, associations and athletes appropriated Vichy’s physical education directives to reshape the ideology of the state and serve their own local agendas.
