Up to Speed
Book • 2023
In 'Up to Speed,' Christine Yu delves into the underrepresentation of women in sports science research and the resulting impact on female athletes.
The book highlights the unique physiological and biomechanical differences between men and women and how these differences are often overlooked in training and treatment protocols.
Through interviews with athletes, coaches, and researchers, Yu uncovers the systemic biases and knowledge gaps that hinder women's athletic performance and overall well-being.
She also examines the cultural and societal factors that contribute to these disparities, advocating for more inclusive and evidence-based approaches in sports.
