Optimizing Athletic Performance Through Cycle Syncing

Welcome to the Period Chats Podcast! In this episode, we discuss how to tailor your workouts to your menstrual cycle with our guest, Callie Jardine. Callie is a former competitive figure skater turned flow-workout lover and certified Pilates instructor who has her own online Pilates platform called Sweaty Studio.

We dive into the benefits of cycle syncing and using variations like light workouts, stretching, sculpting, cardio, dynamic movement, and more for the four phases of the menstrual cycle. By observing your energy levels and cooperating with your body's natural ebb and flow, you can optimize your workout routine for better results.

We also touch on the importance of working out for yourself and practicing wisdom in approaching your exercise routine to prevent injury. This intuitive approach to exercise can increase your enjoyment and positivity towards your workout goals.
