Laura led a comprehensive coaching call on adapting training to hormonal cycles and menstrual patterns, explaining:
- How four main hormones (estrogen, progesterone, LH, and FSH) fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle and affect energy, recovery, appetite, and training performance
- Two case studies – Charlotte with a typical cycle and Lucy in perimenopause – to demonstrate how hormonal changes impact training capabilities and introduced a “traffic light system” for assessing daily training readiness based on body and energy level
- Strategies for green (high energy), amber (unpredictable), and red (low energy) days
- Specific training adaptations, nutrition approaches, and self-care techniques
