CrossFit & Hormones After 35: When Training Helps… and When It Hurts

If you’re a female CrossFitter over 35 who trains hard but feels more inflamed, tired, or stuck than you used to, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we break down how CrossFit impacts female hormones after 35 — including cortisol, insulin, thyroid, and sex hormones — and why training stress, volume, and under-fueling can stall fat loss and recovery.

We also debunk the myth that carbs spike insulin, cortisol, and inflammation, and explain why strategic fueling is essential for performance, hormone balance, and sustainable fat loss.

You’ll learn:

  • Which hormones are impacted by CrossFit training
  • When CrossFit supports hormone health — and when it backfires
  • Why intensity, volume, and recovery matter more after 35
  • How under-eating and low-carb dieting increase stress and inflammation
  • How to fuel CrossFit workouts to support hormones and fat loss

If you’re ready to stop guessing and learn how to personalize your macros for CrossFit, hormones, and body composition, join my upcoming workshop.
