Learn how food manages exercise stress and balances your hormones. Many people view physical training as the primary stressor on the body, but the reality is that your nutrition dictates the response. Eating before working out acts as the critical first step in a cascade that helps your body handle physical exertion. By focusing on proper pre-workout nutrition, you provide the fuel necessary to manage the physiological impact of training. When you give your body food, it signals that resources are available, which is key for cortisol management. This approach allows you to keep progesterone levels stable rather than spiking stress hormones unnecessarily. If you are struggling with balancing hormones while maintaining a fitness routine, understanding this relationship is essential to long-term health. 📚 Resources & Links Mentioned: 📍 Kelsey Moore on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crunchystrengthcoach/ 📍 Kelsey's website and training programs – https://www.kelseemoore.com/ 📍 Episode 96 with Kelsey, Nourishing Young Athletes – https://youtu.be/WBLjPPUjSC4 📍 Training for Two by Gina Conley – https://www.amazon.com/dp/0760387540?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallback 📍 MamasteFit on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/mamastefit/ 📍 Dr. Stacy Sims, women's exercise physiology – https://www.drstacysims.com/ 📍 Creatine Supplementation in Women's Health: A Lifespan Perspective, Abbie Smith-Ryan et al. – https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7998865/ 📍 Thorne Creatine Monohydrate – https://www.thorne.com/products/dp/creatine?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23086295444&gbraid=0AAAAADLUbJURmPCjEkY6SYs_6OpRSvqVw&gclid=Cj0KCQjwm8bTBhDWARIsAC9Hi8kgqbSAZcxZ8atNRkHNTzsf6tnBvARlOFk6rxtKejh4bJAO37tyEA0aAq_BEALw_wcB 📍 Baja Gold Sea Salt and new spice blends – https://bajagoldminerals.com/ 📍 Join our Patreon Community – https://patreon.com/modernancestralmamas 📍 Website – https://www.modernancestralmamas.com ✨ Topics Covered in This Episode: ✔️ Food loads the gun and exercise pulls the trigger, the reframe that changes everything about training stress ✔️ Why fasted workouts hit women differently, and the cortisol to progesterone connection ✔️ What 20 grams of protein and 20 grams of carbohydrate before training actually looks like on a plate ✔️ Why hauling water, kneading bread, and carrying babies was always strength training ✔️ Type one versus type two muscle fibers, and why women lose their power muscles first ✔️ The exercise regimen that heals you is not always the one that sustains you ✔️ Muscle mass as the biggest buffer for your quality of life at 60, 70, and 80 ✔️ Getting 12,000 to 15,000 steps a day when you are home with kids, and the walking pad case ✔️ The $50 home gym ✔️ Bringing your kids into your workout ✔️ Creatine monohydrate, protein powder, and why collagen is not doing what you think ✔️ Pelvic floor as a barrier to entry, and what to do when a PT is not accessible ✔️ Cycle syncing, or just a well written program with a de load week already built in ✨ Support the Show! 👍 Like & Subscribe for more ancestral motherhood conversations ⭐ Leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify 📍 Join our Patreon Community – https://patreon.com/modernancestralmamas 📲 Stay Connected: Patreon Community | https://www.patreon.com/c/ModernAncestralMamas @fornutrientssake | https://www.instagram.com/fornutrientssake/ @nourishthelittles | https://www.instagram.com/nourishthelittles/ @modernancestralmamas | https://www.instagram.com/modernancestralmamas/ YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@ModernAncestralMamas
