And this is where I bring it in.
It's like if a woman had a seat at the table when all the study designs were started—
It wouldn't be a question.
It would just have been assimilated in.
But because we've been so drawn into, we have a crossover, here's one week, crossover next week, because of male physiology, when you add women's hormone fluctuations in, people are like, oh, it's too complex.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, we can look from a morphological standpoint where men have more of our fast twitch fibers.
Women are born with more endurance fibers.
When we're talking about muscle, yeah.
So men have more of the ability to do power and really fast, energetic type activities.
Women are more attuned to endurance type activities.
And this affects metabolism.
It affects blood glucose, homeostasis.
