Train Smarter With Your Cycle is a powerful conversation with Jess Stoll - Director, The Female Collective, women’s health educator, women’s health physio, NRLW Dragons and Samoan team physio and Founder of Project FEM.

In this episode, we unpack how the menstrual cycle actually impacts performance, recovery and confidence and why female athletes have been trained with the wrong assumptions for far too long.

Jess breaks down:

• Why women aren’t “small men” and why that matters for training

• The biggest myths female athletes believe about periods and performance

• Red flags athletes should stop ignoring (including missed periods and pain)

• Why one-size-fits-all menstrual cycle training can do more harm than good

• How understanding your cycle can help you train smarter, not less

We also explore the inspiration behind Project FEM, the education gap facing young girls and women in sport, and why open conversations around women’s health are essential, not optional, in modern high-performance environments.

This episode is a must-listen for female athletes, coaches, parents, schools, clubs and anyone supporting women to perform at their best, in sport, work and life.
