Show Notes
I am going to share with you how to understand and optimize your fitness and nutrition based on where you are at in your cycle. I absolutely love this episode because I'm going to teach you how this leads to a well-rounded way of training, a better understanding of your body and your biology, so things just start making sense.
That's the big thing with my living in sync method. And what I teach is instead of wondering "why do I have these crazy cravings or why am I not feeling motivated, why am I not sleeping good this week?" Instead of having that, "why am I feeling this way?" You are understanding what's going on in your biology, that your hormones are different based on where you are at in your cycle, and you can bring that better understanding to either give yourself grace or to optimize and work with it. This is also really, really great for having variety in your fitness and nutrition plans.
