I'm honored to be joined again by Dr. Stacy Sims, exercise physiologist, nutrition scientist, athlete, and author of ROAR and Next Level. Stacy is a leading voice in women’s performance, and her groundbreaking work has reshaped how we think about training and fueling across the female lifespan.
We dig into the science behind why “women are not small men,” covering everything from the menstrual cycle to perimenopause and menopause, and how those changes impact hydration, recovery, and performance. Stacy shares practical strategies for fueling, training, and strength work that help women harness their physiology instead of fighting it. We also talk about breaking down taboos, the importance of lifting heavy, and why female athletes, and the coaches and partners who support them, need to reframe how success is measured over time.
This conversation is packed with research-backed wisdom, actionable tools, and empowering reminders for women (and men!) who want to thrive in sport and life .
