Spring is officially here. And speaking of spring, did you know that the follicular phase of your cycle is a lot like spring for your female body? 🌱
Spring is rejuvenating, reenergizing and abundant. ✨
During your follicular phase, your body starts to prepare for ovulation.
You might feel more creative, vocal, and decisive.
Your hormones like estrogen and testosterone are naturally increasing.
Your recovery is faster.
You might feel like participating in new or more challenging types of exercise.
GO WITH IT.
This is one of the phases where doing more is naturally easier. And if we support your body, through the increased activity, you can feel really, really darn good!
