Your Body Is Your Instrument: Training with Your Cycle

Many fitness programmes aren’t designed taking a menstrual cycle into consideration, especially in the performing industry, where consistency is often prioritised over sustainability. In this episode, I break down how the menstrual cycle impacts energy, strength, recovery, and performance, and how actors can train in a way that actually works with their bodies. I also explore important considerations for those living with PMDD and Endometriosis, offering a more compassionate and realistic approach to fitness on and off the stage. Enjoy!
