It gets you feeling comfortable.

It will teach you some of those movement patterns that we've discussed.

And then maybe after class, you and a couple of friends that you've made in class can go and try out a couple of machines.

And so you can kind of ease into it that way.

And people gravitate towards group fitness because it's social and you have an appointment because you have to be there at a specific time.

So that can be another good kind of entry point to get you going to the gym without feeling overwhelmed by it.

exercises you're not sure how to perform or equipment that you're not sure how to use.

It's a lot.

I think now more than ever, you're just seeing more and more of this messaging pop up.

And with the menstrual cycle, it's not only about exercise.

I see the way you should eat differently due to cycle phase, the way you should work differently, the way you should socialize differently.

There are all of these messages that are saying –

You need to kind of overhaul this aspect of your life to align with these phases.

Not with resistance training specifically, but with physical activity, sure.

It can definitely help because if you have something like cramps, then just kind of doing something to increase blood flow, even if it's going for a walk, can be helpful.

And it also kind of gets your mind off of it so you're not actually sitting there kind of focusing on the fact that you're uncomfortable.

And it depends on the person, but I think some sort of physical activity can be beneficial and that's something that you should consider exploring, whether it's resistance training or anything else.

The nutrition data is pretty poor because as is most nutrition data, it's kind of self-report.

And so we're saying observationally, people tend to eat a little bit more in this phase versus that phase on average based on self-reported food diaries.

Does that mean that you should change caloric intake or protein intake or carbohydrate intake?
