Description

  Western's warmest bag at -40° F; windproof and highly water-resistant.

  Denali, Aconcagua, the Himalaya... mountaineering in the extreme. These are places where the margin for error is zero, and so the Western Mountaineering Bison Gore Infinium sleeping bag is most often chosen to serve. A full Gore Infinium shell makes this bag windproof and virtually waterproof while remaining lightweight and surprisingly compressible. Stuffed with over 40 ounces of 850+ fill down, the Bison has 10 massive inches of heat-trapping loft. Huge V-Block Side Baffles and horizontal baffles across your chest keep the down fill in place, and double Interlocking Draft Tubes and a down-filled Gore Infinium collar seal in heat while howling winds surround your tent. The huge hood is not only well-filled but is completely made with Gore Infinium and has a large ruff to seal your face from the elements. The Bison is the crowning glory of Western Mountaineering and demonstrates their commitment to innovation and quality. This life-saving bundle weighs in under 5 lbs and is the warmest bag you'll find anywhere.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the Bison down sleeping bag is made by hand in San Jose, California. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.

  The GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® series enhances quality and performance, combining versatile aspects of support and comfort without the need for total waterproof protection. Durable water resistance combined with increased breathability, better packability, and optimized lightweight elements are the defining features of this technology. GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® is totally windproof and provides highly water-resistant protection for unstoppable performance.

Best Pilates exercises to do postpartum
  Once mums have given birth, whether vaginal or via c-section, they often ask what is the best exercise to start building back their strength.

Women's weight training for beginners
  Weight training, also known as resistance or strength training, can often be undervalued when it comes to women’s exercise.   Research out of the University of Northern Iowa backs this up, showing there’s a huge training gap between men and women, with only 20% of women undertaking any form of strength training regularly, compared to 50% of men.   One of the...
The tips you need to improve your sleep
  According to the Sleep Foundation, a healthy amount of sleep for an adult per night is 7-8 hours.

How to build fitness back postpartum
  In almost all of my postnatal classes and sessions, women often ask me, ‘will I ever get my pre-baby body back?’ First of all I remind them that they never actually lost their body. It’s the exact same body they had, it just took on a whole new role and form.   And secondly I tell them never to ‘punish’ their...
How does the menstrual cycle impact training and racing?
  When it comes to reaching that time of the month, it’s rare to find a single woman firing on all cylinders. The fluctuation in hormones affects most of us physically, emotionally and mentally.   In fact, some women can be impacted so severely that it renders them unable to carry out their everyday lives normally.   The good news is that more...

Can you exercise safely while pregnant?
  To share a personal anecdote from the perspective of a no-longer-pregnant person, I recently clicked on an online workout to find myself feeling somewhat apprehensive at the sight of a pregnant instructor teaching a full-body strength session.   My initial thoughts were ‘would she be able to lift heavy weights and carry out all the moves herself effectively’ and ‘would I...
Do you burn more calories on your period?
  For some, periods feel like the body is going through the wringer. Monthly menstruation can take a lot out of the body, and come with a string of PMS (premenstrual syndrome) grievances like cramping, bloating, fatigue and more.   Surely all that burns more calories, right? There must be a reason why we’re reaching for the chocolate more during this time...
