Earlier this year Davenport et al. released the 2025 Canadian guidelines for physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep throughout the first year postpartum. There are 9 recommendations. You can also look at www.csep.ca for additional references including:
1. The Postpartum Get Active questionnaire https://lnkd.in/gEgfZXFe
2. The 24-Hour Movement Guidelines https://lnkd.in/gRMXnN5G
Well done Davenport et al.

Women's Health Review #12.
It is so nice to see some work by the International Olympic Committee to recommend injury prevention for female, woman and/or girl athletes. This appears to be long, but I added in the consensus statements at the end. I think you will need to access the article to see them clearly. http://bjsm.bjm.com/

Review #4 - Women's Health
Just when we thought we knew lots about the symptoms of menopause and when they started, take a look at what Coslov et al. found out about when the symptoms may actually start! For those of us who see women in their 30s, 40s and 50+ this is a great article for you. And for more information, check out their website: https://womenlivingbetter.org/
