E29: Sync Your Fitness with Your Menstrual Cycle for Better Results and Less Stress with Courtney Babilya
Show Notes

Welcome back to the Happily Hormonal Podcast. In this episode,  Courtney Babilya is my guest. She is a Fitness Nurse, mom of two busy little kids, and Women’s Fitness Specialist - not to mention a fellow hormone nerd so I loved getting to share her perspective on how our cycles can impact our fitness for the better.

I’m thrilled to talk to her about cyclical fitness, how your hormones impact your fitness, and how to sync your menstrual cycle with your workouts and actually get results with that versus just feeling like your cycle is limiting you or holding you back.


In this episode:

  • [01:44] Courtney’s journey to becoming a Women’s Fitness Specialist
  • [04:35] The biggest misconceptions about cyclical fitness 
  • [09:41] Finding balance with inconsistent consistency
  • [13:13] How each phase of your cycle impacts your fitness
  • [19:06] Trust yourself and listen to your body to know how much you can push yourself with exercise
  • [29:55] The way Courtney structures her workouts phase by phase
  • [37:27] The mental and physical benefits of having a cyclical structure for your exercises
