Dr. Tabatha Barber explains how to sync your workouts with your menstrual cycle. During the follicular phase when estrogen rises, lift heavy and go hard. After ovulation, when progesterone increases, switch to yoga, stretching, and tai chi instead.
whatever it is, but capture that time of feeling drive for life and do something. You're probably craving lifting weights too. It's when I like to lift the heaviest. Yes, like get after it, get in the gym, stop being afraid of it, get some lessons, get a trainer. And then once you ovulate and the progesterone starts to increase, that's your body saying, okay, I'm hoping to get pregnant this month. Even if you don't want to get pregnant, Your body wants to, and so it wants to nurture and nest and, and chill a little bit. And so now you need to like go to yoga, you need to do some stretching or tai chi or Pilates, and like nurture relationships.
