Menstrual Health Series - Training WITH your cycle, with Olympic Champion Gwen Jorgensen

On this third episode of the menstrual cycle series, we discuss strategies to train optimally WITH our menstrual cycle, with Olympic Gold Medallist Gwen Jorgensen as well as with Dr. Stacy Sims. In the first part of the episode, Dr. Stacy Sims explains the difference between performance and training. Science proves that we can perform on any day of our cycle, but when it comes to training, should we be flexible with our schedule to better fit each phase of our cycle? Then, we are joined by Gwen Jorgensen to hear her story of how she has been able to optimize her training by understanding her cycle better. Gwen shares how and what she tracks about her cycle. She also shares key actions she took to optimize her training and recovery according to the phases of her cycle, and how she was able to improve symptoms and discomfort from her periods.
