Unleash your natural power: strength training for people who menstruate
Advertisement
Learn how to work with your menstrual cycle, rather than battling against it, and get the most out of your strength training!

Using her background in human biochemistry and health education, Emma is bringing you an informative workshop on how the menstrual cycle can affect strength training, and offer tips and tricks to help you work with your body's natural rhythms rather than against them.

WHAT’S IN THE WORKSHOP?
12:00 - 12:30 Menstrual cycle health and exercise: understand the available evidence for how the menstrual cycle can affect your training, and what you can do about it
12:30 - 12:45 Questions & Answers
Break (fruit and water will be provided)
13:30 - 13:50 Functional strength circuit: get the blood pumping and harness your power. A full body workout hitting all the major muscle groups (adaptable depending on individual fitness levels and needs)
13:50-14:00 Closing circle, an opportunity to share your thoughts, and ask Emma any final questions
“I generally feel renewed and empowered with new knowledge” – Jes, Previous Workshop attendee

WHO IS IT AIMED AT?
Anyone who experiences menstruation (regardless of how you identify). We aim to offer a welcoming environment to everyone interested in better understanding their anatomy and physiology. This workshops is designed for a range of fitness levels, so you can join us whatever your fitness background!

WHAT TO BRING
Just yourself, a bottle of water, and comfortable, unrestrictive clothing. We will provide the rest!

ABOUT EMMA
Growing up I was equal parts science nerd and sports enthusiast – and not much has changed over the years.
By combining my background in rugby, strength training and calisthenics, with a degree in biochemistry and 10+ years of working in the medical education industry, I’ve learnt a lot about my own body, and how to keep it strong and healthy.
Now a qualified L3 personal trainer, my mission is to share those learnings with as many people as possible, to help individuals rewrite the script of what they are capable of. Using science-backed techniques and knowledge, I aim to help other’s learn how to work with their bodies and not against them, build strength and overall fitness, and move in healthy and playful ways they might never have thought possible.
"Since starting my personal training sessions with Emma the transformation in my fitness has been incredible. Her knowledge in health, strength and well-being is unmatched. Each session is tailored to my individual needs and goals, pushing me just the right amount. Emma’s positive attitude and encouragement have made fitness rewarding and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to make a significant and lasting change in their health and fitness journey." - Carol, PT client
