Designed for women seeking better energy, hormonal balance, and productivity, this episode breaks down how to use biofeedback tools like heart rate variability (HRV) and resting heart rate (RHR) to track recovery, predict hormonal shifts, and guide training intensity. Listeners learn how to adapt their nutrition to reduce cravings and support hormonal balance, improve sleep quality by phase, and adjust their workouts to match energy availability--pushing harder in the follicular and ovulatory phases and embracing recovery in the luteal phase.
