#24 - w/ Dr. Lindsay Martens: Hormones, Menstrual Cycle Specific Training & Nutrition, Xenoestrogens, Detoxification and more!

The Fitness Experiment

We are super excited to welcome Lindsay Martens to the show! Lindsay is a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine who specializes in Naturopathic Fertility treatments. She uses an innovative blend of new research and ancient remedies to bring hormonal balance back to individuals. On this episode we dig into some specifics on WHEN and HOW to train based on your menstrual cycle. We also discuss how eating carbohydrates vs. fat may be more favourable at different times of the month, in terms of fat oxidation, inflammatory responses and more. Guys there's lots here for you too, as we dig into xenoestrogens and how they contribute to belly fat, man boobs and so on. Have you ever tried a detox or "juice cleanse" and wondered if it works? We discuss some of the physiological pathways involved in detoxification and how they really work.

If you have enjoyed our discussion(s) of hormones thus far on the podcast then you will dig this one - this one is next level!
