Maybe, just MAYBE you don’t know enough about the MENSTRUAL cycle, female ♀️ physiology, as well as whether or not it influences training.
🤦♀️ ACTUALLY, we all don’t know nearly enough about it!
Lauren Colenso-Semple wants you to understand that we are still quite far away from giving training based on MENSTRUAL PHASE, as well as specific recommendations around timing of various training phases or competitions. In the meantime:
Get to know your athletes, build an understanding and open environment, so that you can INDIVIDUALLY adjust what they need for their variety of potential strengths and syndromes. They know when they feel good, and when they don’t!
In the 64th episode of The Training Science Podcast, Paul and Lauren also discuss
✨ what the hormonal fluctuations of women are and HOW they could affect training?!
⚔️ how incredibly individual the hormonal fluctuations are from one women to the next.
🔎 how the menstrual cycle data can be useful if you can easily track it.
