@joshtaylorcoaching: I had to stop hip thrusting half way… I wish I could say it’s because I felt the emphasis on training glutes could be perceived as aligning with societal beauty standards that are often criticised for being patriarchal and objectifying. … but really it’s because that angle showed my moose-knuckle. One thing I do want to reiterate: Individual programming is paramount. There is such high variability between women and their cycles we can’t just make blanket recommendations. And no, I’m not ovary-acting. It’s possible that the apparent contradictions between the science and people’s experiences can be answered with psychological explanations. But either way, listen to your body and adapt a program accordingly. Here’s an example of programming if that monthly uterus punch does knock you for six. * Weeks 1 and 2: Lift heavier for lower reps, close to failure. * Week 3: Lift a moderate load for higher reps, 1-2 reps further from failure. * Week 4: Maybe take a deload by dropping one set off each exercise or taking a further 1-2 reps from failure.  * Repeat. Hope this helps.
