À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode, we dive into the impact of the menstrual cycle on endurance performance with Dr. Natalie Brown, a research officer at the Welsh Institute of Performance Science. We break down how different phases of the cycle affect the body, from physiological changes to performance shifts, and why understanding this is crucial for female athletes. Natalie answers questions from some lovely female runners within the local community, sheds light on the importance of education and support for young girls in sport, and discusses how we can shift the stigma into a positive mindset.
And, of course, we couldn’t ignore the online 'keyboard warriors' who lost their minds over Emma Pallant-Browne daring to bleed while being an absolute machine at a world championship race. While they were busy typing furiously from their couches, Emma was out there proving that a period doesn’t stop a powerhouse. If you’re still unsettled by the reality of female physiology in 2025, consider this episode your wake-up call
