Follicular — Build
Build at a pace that fits you.
Focus: Build · Progress · Practise
Some people notice changes in energy or motivation after their period; others do not. Use your training log and how you feel to decide whether this is a good time to progress. Your cycle alone does not require a jump in volume or intensity.
Keep building strength through consistent practice. Add load or volume when your technique, recovery, and goals support it. Eat enough to support the work you are doing, including carbohydrates for demanding sessions and protein across the day. Your amounts are individual.
