Perspectives in Exercise, Health and Fitness is known for translating research into applied practice for exercise professionals. This year's 2-day conference brings leading researchers and practitioners together on day 1 for an interdisciplinary perspective. On day 1 get the latest evidence on women's health; learn how to support women to maintain bone strength, improve brain function (brain fog go away!), and energy levels. Then on day 2, we'll flip the conversation, and explore not muscle strength, but mental strength. Learn how to improve your own capacity and resilience, so that you can increase your impact on your clients and communities. Check out the bonus session for all delegates on October 20!
