Sync your workouts with your cycle
Hi Angel! Ever feel like your energy, mood, or workouts change depending on the time of the month? You’re not imagining it—our bodies have natural cycles that affect how we feel and perform.
That’s what cycle syncing is all about!

What is cycle syncing?
Cycle syncing means syncing your workouts, diet, and habits with your menstrual cycle. Since your energy, mood, and strength change throughout the month, it helps you work with your body’s natural rhythms for better results and well-being!
What are the benefits of cycle syncing?
The biggest perk of cycle syncing is getting in tune with your body’s natural changes each month. Other possible benefits include:
Reduced PMS symptoms
Less period pain
Enhanced workout efficiency
Lower risk of injury
Support for fertility
Improved mood, sleep, and productivity
A greater sense of balance
What are the phases of my menstrual cycle?

Menstruation: The uterine lining sheds, leading to bleeding. You may feel exhausted as both oestrogen and progesterone levels are low.
Follicular: One of the developing eggs matures and you’ll notice an energy boost as oestrogen levels rise, leaving you feeling more positive and motivated
Ovulation: The release of the mature egg, and when energy and libido peak. Ovulation itself lasts only 12 to 24 hours but generally occurs mid-cycle.
Luteal: If fertilisation doesn’t occur, PMS symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, and bloating may appear as your body prepares for menstruation. Energy levels typically decline as the cycle resets.
How can I track my menstrual phase?
Use a period-tracking app to figure out where you are in your cycle. You can also use a basal thermometer or ovulation test kit to track key signs like basal body temperature, which rises after ovulation.
Does cycle syncing apply if I'm on birth control?
Even if you’re on birth control or don’t have a regular cycle, syncing your workouts and lifestyle with how you feel can still help. The key is listening to your body and working with your current energy and needs.
