Years of research culminate in this
trailblazing online course on the menstrual cycle
and how to leverage it for better results for
your athletes and clients.
Did you know your female clients may be at a higher risk of injury during certain times of the menstrual cycle?
Women make up half the population of the planet, yet for decades they have been persistently under-represented in medical and performance research. Exos is determined to do what we can to help remove the stigma of periods and female physiology from fitness training, as an industry, to improve results for the clients we support.
This online continuing education course is how we get started. As the global leader in human performance, Exos saw this research on female athletes and the effects of hormones and the menstrual cycle on performance as our responsibility to ensure our community is equipped to best coach, guide and train athletes with female physiology.
Yet this is bigger than just Exos. It’s about participating in the collective acceptance of female physiology for the biological fact that it is. Just bodies being bodies.
Because with an in-depth understanding of the menstrual cycle, you can create better gameplans and be a more informed resource for your female clients of reproductive age who aren’t pregnant or trying to get pregnant.
Yes and no. You will no doubt understand the gameplan components we discuss, but the nuance of which ones to prioritize and how to manipulate variables to not only accommodate but leverage the menstrual cycle is beyond the XPS material.
XPS taught you what the tools are; this course will teach you the specifics of how to apply them to the clients you support.
This course will cover recommendations for females of reproductive age that are not currently pregnant, aren’t trying to get pregnant or haven’t been pregnant within the last year.
While some of the information we cover in this course will be universal at all ages and stages, we are working on additional courses to cover a female's full life span in the detail it deserves to ensure you make the best recommendations for your clients.
If you coach athletes and clients with female physiology, this online professional development course is for you. Taking this course isn’t meant to be exclusively for people who menstruate, but rather an opportunity for everyone to learn how to best support 100% of the clients who entrust them with their readiness.
