Timing Your Exercise & Diet Around Your Menstrual Cycle

Let me know what you thought of this episode!

Did you know your menstrual cycle can impact your energy levels, cravings, and workout performance? In this episode, I dive into how to optimise your exercise and nutrition based on your cycle—so you can work with your body, not against it. 

After bariatric surgery this will show up by being more hungry in the week prior to your period and increased bloating and sluggishness. 

You'll learn:

  • The four phases of the menstrual cycle and how they affect metabolism and strength
  • The best types of workouts to do in each phase (hint: it's not always the time for HIIT!)
  • How to adjust your diet to support your cycle
  • Why understanding your cycle can help with bariatric weight management and long-term success

If you've ever struggled with feeling sluggish during workouts, intense cravings, or frustrating weight fluctuations, this episode is for you!
