Key Takeaways
- The menstrual period is a good time for training and cold exposure
- The anticipation of the cold is much worse than the actual event
- Ice baths create a sympathetic response in the body leading to adaptation
- With a full experience, the body and metabolism will reap the rewards for at least 24 to 36 hours afterwards
- Let your body do the work to get the maximum benefit
- Thinking about doing the work actually results in better work, it’s about getting better because you are riding the edge
- Putting the stressor into the muscle means it adapts and you get tighter, stronger and leaner
- Write down every day something that is positive and something that is beautiful about yourself
- We spend a lot of time obsessing over how we look but we only have this moment, and this day every day
- Women are so hard on themselves but all women are incredible, amazing and beautiful
- with many special gifts that no one else has
- Small consistencies every day are what get us to the long-term goal
- Your cells are listening when you are talking to yourself and it impacts on how you are showing up in the world
- Being outside and grounding is a simple but very powerful tool
- If you understand your body you can take control
- Looking at your body as a whole and understanding the mechanics means you can optimise and live your best life
Best Moments
‘You can go into the cold at any time of the month that feels right
‘Bio-syncing means you can take control
‘It doesn’t matter where you are in your lifespan as a woman you should be lifting heavy
