The Exercise & Nutrition Scientist: The Truth About Exercising On Your Period! Women Were Right About Menopause! These 4 Supplements Give Women Optimal Health!

A lot of women come with their partners to see me and say, I don't understand. We're both doing the same training. He's leaning up and getting fitter, I'm putting weight on, getting slower. And that is because we have puberty, we have our reproductive years, we may not have pregnancy in there, we have perimenopause, we have postmenopause, we have menstrual cycle. Each one of those is a different hormone profile that can affect the way we eat and the way we train. But no one told us this or what we can do. Until right now, Dr. Stacey Sims is an exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist whose best selling books and over one hundred peer-reviewed studies is revolutionizing how women can optimize their health, fitness, and longevity by working with their unique physiology. We're looking at sports science research. Everything from training to eating, recovery, it's based on male data, and women have been generalized to that data. things like we see men do really well on calorie restriction and fasting, but for women, it doesn't happen that way. And we'll talk about that. And we also know that during puberty your all's hips widened, shoulders widened, which changes our angle of unique hip, what we call the Q angle, so that you don't feel comfortable running or swimming or jumping. And because they're not caught with stuff. We see that by the age of 14, girls who previously were sporty, over 60% of them drop out of sport. The problem is it's never about how we can empow women to use their physiology to their advantage.

So let's change that. Let's get. As it relates to nutrition and exercise, how do I need to adapt across the menstrual cycle? What's your view on cold plungers and supplements like creatine? And what's the variance between men and women as it relates to sleep? And then let's talk about menopause, starting with perimenopause. I'm excited. The diary of a CEO is independently fact checked.
