Train With Your Cycle, Not Against It

You're not imagining it. There really are weeks when you feel unstoppable — hitting personal bests, training hard, recovering fast, running on less and still showing up strong. And there are weeks when everything feels heavier, slower, harder — and no amount of willpower changes that. Here's the thing: both are completely normal. Both are by design. In this solo episode, Nikki breaks down how your menstrual cycle directly shapes your energy, your strength, and your capacity throughout the month — and why understanding that has changed the way she trains herself and every single one of her clients. As a PT, this information felt like a missing piece she wishes she'd had years ago. Because when you stop fighting your body and start working with it? Everything shifts. You'll learn why the first half of your cycle is built for pushing, progressing, and performing — and why the second half is a signal to slow down, nourish deeply, and practise a little compassion instead of white-knuckling through. Because progress isn't always linear. And neither are you. Track your progress monthly. Not daily.   Connect with Nikki: www.nikkikable.com @nikki_kable
