Main Topic: Female Hormones and How it Impacts Exercise - 45:19 --> Basically anything in the body is governed and regulated by hormones.  They control what our body wants to do or what our body can do.  For females, this is even more of a vital topic since the female body is influenced primarily by estrogen.  This starts to drastically change the body from puberty through menopause and can vary on a week-to-week basis.  It's a dense, deep, but incredibly educational topic in today's episode, which should help make more sense of what you feel and how to train appropriately.  Enjoy!
