About this listen

Dr. Mindy Pelz is a bestselling author and leading voice in women’s health who has spent decades studying how hormones impact training, metabolism, and longevity.

She explains why most workout advice is built around male biology — and why that approach often leads to injury, burnout, and stalled results for women. From the menstrual cycle to pregnancy and menopause, Dr. Pelz breaks down how women should actually train to support hormones, strength, and long-term health.

She explains:

  • Why women shouldn’t train the same way men do

  • How female hormones change strength, cardio, and recovery

  • When women should push harder — and when rest matters more

  • Why overtraining backfires for women as they age

  • How to think about fitness through a longevity-first lens

This conversation reframes fitness for women at every stage of life — and offers a smarter, more sustainable way to train.
