In this episode of the Active Bariatric Nutrition Podcast, I interviewed muscle physiology researcher, Dr. Lauren Colenso-Semple, also known as @drlaurencs1 on IG. We discussed:
- An overview of the menstrual cycle hormonal changes as well as what happens with our hormones as we enter perimenopause and menopause
- Misconceptions around women and muscle building and the menstrual cycle
- Should women be "cycle-syncing" their workouts?
- Dr. Colenso-Semple's published research on muscle protein synthesis and whether hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle impact it
- Are there specific types of workouts or dietary guidelines women should be incorporating as they enter perimenopause or menopause?
