Sims, an authoritative voice on the health and performance of female athletes, will delve into the unique physiology of the female body. Historically, medical and fitness research has centered on male bodies, leaving many women frustrated by advice that doesn\u2019t align with their experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Sims will demystify how women\u2019s bodies function differently, offering insights into training effectively at various life stages, understanding and adapting to hormonal shifts, and optimizing nutrition for peak performance. Not only will you gain a deeper understanding of your physiology, but you will be inspired to celebrate and elevate your physical potential at every age.<\/p>\n<p>Sims is a forward-thinking international exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist who earned a Master of Science in Physiology of Exercise Science from Springfield College. Her aim is to revolutionize exercise nutrition and performance for women.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/springfield.edu\/academics\/school-of-physical-education-performance-and-sport-leadership\/karpovich-lecture\">Learn more about Stacy Sims<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>This event, presented by the School of Physical Education, Performance, and Sport Leadership, is free and open to the Springfield College community and the public.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For questions or more information, contact Laura Feeley at <a href=\"mailto:lfeeley@springfield.edu\">lfeeley@springfield.edu<\/a> or (413) 748-3413.
