Women's health training
Training that adapts around your body through your menstrual cycle, pre and post natal, and perimenopause and menopause. JC doesn't diagnose, prescribe or advise on hormone treatment (HRT) or medication. For medical questions, speak to your GP, midwife or a menopause specialist.
Your menstrual cycle
Energy, strength and recovery can shift through your cycle, and everyone responds differently. JC builds your plan around how you actually feel, not a rigid calendar, and adjusts it as you go.
How training can adapt
During your period
Some people feel fine, others have cramps or low energy. Sessions can stay as planned, or move to lighter movement, mobility and lower-intensity strength work.
The days after
Many people feel stronger and more energetic as the cycle moves on, so this can be a good window for harder strength work, if you feel up to it.
Around ovulation
Some people feel strong, others feel off. JC keeps the plan flexible and pays extra attention to warm-ups and technique.
Before your next period
Energy can dip, and tiredness or mood changes are common for some people. Intensity can come down and recovery can go up, so you keep going without pushing through exhaustion.
On hormonal contraception?
Hormonal contraception can change how your cycle works, and sometimes there's no clear pattern to follow. If that's you, your plan is based on how you feel and recover, not on cycle phases.
Notice what's normal for you
A simple note of your energy, mood and recovery helps JC adjust your plan.
When to speak to your GP
JC doesn't diagnose or treat. Speak to your GP if your periods have stopped for three months or more (and you're not pregnant, menopausal, or on contraception that explains it), your cycles are persistently irregular or longer than 35 days, your periods are very heavy or last a long time, or pain goes beyond normal discomfort or affects your daily life.
JC doesn't diagnose, prescribe or advise on medication, hormone treatment or diet.
