S12 EP4: Cycle Syncing DEBUNKED

The Thick Thighs Save Lives Podcast

We love Dr. Rachele Pojednic so much we had to have her back! In her last episode we took a deep dive into cryotherapy, but as an exercise scientist her expertise goes well beyond cryo. She is the CEO and Founder of Strong Process Education and the Director of Scientific Research at Restore Hyperwellness. Her current research examines nutrition, supplementation and physical activity interventions on muscle physiology, performance and recovery.

She’s not only doing some amazing research, she’s bridging the gap between socials and science and making it relatable. She focuses on women’s health 🙌 because there is such a tremendous omission in the data and because we are different than men! In this episode, Rachael and Rachele get into cycle syncing, how to reverse muscle loss at age 30, supplements, cellulite, fitness post menopause, metabolism, sarcopenia, and hormone replacement therapy. Join us to hear the science but also, why women are so freaking awesome!
