This is the second part of our women’s special podcast. In this episode, I’m joined by the team to dissect all the popular health and fitness myths women face on a day to day basis. Everything from the menstrual cycle, to pregnancy, to skinny fat syndrome, to effective training… as well as what things women who are less than 50kgs need to consider when they want to change their body composition. This is an episode for both men and women to tune into, dissect and take notes from, as many of the myths women are hit by, are closely linked to what men experience too.
