Why align workouts with my cycle?

The idea is to optimize your workouts based on the hormonal fluctuations that occur throughout your cycle. Different phases of your cycle present different hormonal profiles, impacting your energy levels, strength, and recovery needs. Aligning your workouts with these phases helps you train smarter and achieve better results.

What if my cycle is irregular?

If your cycle is irregular, you can still participate! I recommend tracking your cycle for at least a few months to get a sense of your average cycle length. Once you have a better understanding of your cycle, you can start to tailor your workouts to the different phases. For irregular cycles, we also offer additional resources and guidance to help you adapt the program to your specific needs.

Can I still lift weights during my period?

Absolutely! While you may need to adjust the intensity or duration of your workouts during your period, moderate strength training can actually help ease cramps and improve your mood. FitterPeriod. provides period-friendly modifications and suggestions to support you.

What are some examples of tailored phase workouts?
