PMOS exercise advice online has gotten…weird. You’ve probably heard it all: cardio spikes cortisol, HIIT is off-limits, you have to cycle sync...
But are these actually exercise rules, or just myths that got repeated enough to sound like facts?
In this episode we’re cutting through the noise and diving into:
➡️Why exercise feels so hard to stick to with PMOS
➡️What actually happens to your cortisol post-workout
➡️Cycle syncing: worth it, or overhyped
➡️5 pre-workout snacks to fuel your session and recovery
A little evidence, nuance, trust and gentle effort in your exercise routine can do wonders for your hormone health.
