Being you : the body image book for boys

See all formats and editions

From early childhood boys often feel pressured to be athletic and muscular.

But what impact does this have on physical and mental well-being through their teens and beyond?

Worryingly, a third of teen boys are trying to 'bulk up' due to body dissatisfaction, and boys and men account for 25% of eating disorder cases.

What can we tell our boys to help them feel happy and confident simply being themselves? Being You has the answers! It's an easy-to-read, evidence-based guide to developing a positive body image for boys aged 12+.

It covers all the facts on puberty, diet, exercise, self-care, mental health, social media, and everything in-between.

Boys will find answers to the questions most on their mind, the truth behind many diet and exercise myths, and real-life stories from other boys.

Armed with this book, they will understand that muscles don't make a man – it's enough simply being you!
