Why Your Body Is Strongest in This Phase (and What to Do With It)

Ovulation is your natural power peak, babe. This is when your body’s firing on all cylinders—estrogen and testosterone are at their highest, and that translates to more energy, better endurance, and faster recovery. Aka, your workouts? They hit different right now. This is the moment in your cycle to lift heavier, sprint harder, and really feel your strength. You’re not forcing it—you’re flowing with your body’s rhythm. And that alignment? It’s magic.

💪 What to Try During Ovulation

This is your green-light window for intensity. Think strong, dynamic, and energizing:

• Resistance training with moderate to heavy weights (this is the week to increase your reps or your load)

• Strength-based circuits or high-energy bodyweight flows (think squats, push-ups, and plank variations)

• Plyometric drills or sprint intervals—if jumping and speed are your thing, now’s the time

Even a power yoga class or dance cardio sesh will feel more fun and doable right now. Ride the wave.

🥗 Fuel Like You Mean It

When your body’s pushing harder, it needs solid support. This is not the time to skimp on calories, carbs, or hydration. Think of food as your performance partner:

• Eat before and after workouts—yes, both

• Focus on protein + carbs to build muscle and stabilize energy

• Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate to support hormone transport and recovery

Smoothies, grain bowls, protein pancakes—make it delicious and functional.

🔥 This Is Your Go-For-It Phase

You’re not just capable right now—you’re in alignment. Your cycle is backing you, your energy is elevated, and your strength is ready to be felt.

So challenge yourself. Fuel your fire. And don’t be surprised if you hit a new personal best—physically or emotionally.

You are powerful, you are supported, and you’re allowed to take up space—in the gym, on the mat, or wherever you choose to show up.
