NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Stronger muscles and bones, increased mobility, lifelong independence, and a new mentality for aging with power—this cutting-edge guide to nutrition, training, and lifestyle will optimize a woman's body for longevity, through menopause and beyond.

“Stop believing the BS about getting older. In Unbreakable, Dr. Vonda Wright lays out the science that proves your best years can still be ahead.”—Mel Robbins, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Let Them Theory

“Building muscle and bone are what I like to call my nursing home avoidance plan. There is no better mentor in this important work than Dr. Vonda Wright.”—Mary Claire Haver, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The New Menopause

Strong skeletal muscle drives healthy longevity yet too often women in particular neglect this important measure of fitness. Indeed, more than 70% of women experience musculoskeletal symptoms like joint pain, muscle loss, and reduced bone density as they enter perimenopause and menopause. These symptoms—what Dr. Vonda Wright refers to as the "musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause"—can often set us up for osteoporosis, osteopenia, broken bones, increasingly limited mobility, and reduced independence later in life. That trend stops now. Unbreakable outlines a new and direct path to protecting ourselves against this too-common fate.

Drawing on her decades of experience as a pioneering orthopedic surgeon helping women at all fitness levels to repair their bones and regain strength, Dr. Wright gives clear action steps to shield us from the timebombs of aging in four critical categories:

Exercise: Pinpointing the right combination of cardio and resistance training for you to aid in tissue regeneration and improve metabolic function.
Nutrition: What to eat to extinguish inflammation, repopulate your gut biome, and support strong bones and muscle growth.
Lifestyle: How to manage chronic stress, get more restorative sleep, and turn down systemic inflammation in your daily life.
Supplements: What to take to target the elimination of “zombie cells” and improve your cell function.

Including a six-week, master exercise protocol to jumpstart skeletal and muscular strength, critical information about baseline blood and mobility tests that will help you understand your current health state, and twenty easy, anti-inflammatory recipes, Unbreakable is an invaluable guide to adding more vibrantly healthy life to your years.

* This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF with charts and appendices from the book.
