Pre-workout Nutrition
You talk about fasted strength training vs fueled. Can you share a little more about the science behind fueled training and the value it can add. Also, more suggestions on what that meal can look like. You’ve mentioned rice cakes and peanut butter or protein and oats - what are some other recommendations. Is the key to focus on a good protein source or more carb heavy?
Libido!
I’m 42 and I have noticed a big change in libido. I’m married and what was once a healthy sexual relationship feels more like a chore these days. I read your book and a few others regarding perimenopause and everything points to me being estrogen dominant. I started DIM several months back and it’s been a life saver balancing moodiness and even anger. But I still struggle with my libido, I do think it’s improved on the DIM but not where I’d like to see it. Any recommendations on other ways to help improve this. I’m a healthy eater and prioritize my protein to match my bodyweight - minimal to no processed foods in my diet. I strength train 4-5 times a week and work in some low intensity cardio. I feel like my nutrition and movement are pretty dialed in. Thanks in advance!
