A science-backed, stigma-free guide to pelvic health for all athletes and those who train and treat them.

Athletes train for speed, strength, and endurance, but few consider the importance of the pelvic floor. In every sport, movement is reliant on deep connections to the core and the pelvis through the pelvic floor muscles.

Floor It is a groundbreaking guide to the pelvic floor, identifying the problems that weak pelvic muscles can cause in sports and daily life and showing how pelvic floor exercises can solve a surprising number of sports-related injuries, pain, and problems.

Pelvic health is integral to athleticism, performance, and longevity in sport—and simply living a more comfortable, active lifestyle. With humor and expertise, Dr. Rachel Selman, DPT, equips athletes, coaches, trainers, and health professionals with guidance to build a stronger pelvic floor.

Floor It applies to athletes of all kinds: women and men, young and old, pregnant or post-partum. Studies show that athletes of all kinds are far more likely to be affected by pelvic health conditions than non-athletes, revealing why this topic is booming in awareness in online sports communities.

This first book on pelvic floor health for athletes goes well beyond Kegel exercises to help runners, triathletes, cyclists, weight lifters, gymnasts, and many others to solve their lower core issues and follow a path to improving their sports performance.
