    🔍 In This Episode, We Cover:
    • Is fasted training harmful for women?

    • Do women need to consume protein within 45 minutes of exercise?

    • Does intermittent fasting cause muscle loss?
    • Does syncing your workouts to your cycle actually work?

    • How menopause affects muscle building (and how it doesn’t)

    • HRT and muscle maintenance during menopause

    • How to prioritize what actually works for body composition
