Unbreakable: A Woman's Guide to Aging with Power

Unbreakable provides guidance on nutrition, training, and lifestyle to help women optimize their bodies for longevity through menopause and beyond. The book addresses the "musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause"—a cluster of symptoms including joint pain, muscle loss, and reduced bone density that affect more than 70% of women entering perimenopause and menopause. Left unaddressed, these symptoms can lead to osteoporosis, osteopenia, broken bones, limited mobility, and reduced independence. Drawing on decades of experience as an orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Vonda Wright outlines action steps across four categories: exercise (combining cardio and resistance training for tissue regeneration and metabolic function), nutrition (reducing inflammation and supporting bone and muscle growth), lifestyle (managing stress, improving sleep, and reducing systemic inflammation), and supplements (targeting cellular health). The book includes a six-week exercise protocol for building skeletal and muscular strength, guidance on baseline blood and mobility tests to assess current health, and twenty anti-inflammatory recipes.
