Menstrual Cycle

Train in Sync with Your Body: Menstrual Cycle-Aware Coaching

Hormonal shifts throughout your cycle directly impact your energy levels, recovery rate, and physical output. Instead of forcing a rigid routine, CD Coach automatically adjusts your workout intensity and volume to match the exact phase of your menstrual cycle.

How CD Coach Adapts to Every Phase

Your training plan continuously evolves to optimize your biological performance window every day of the month:

🩸 Menstruation

During menstruation, energy levels can dip while systemic inflammation is often higher. CD Coach dials back the demand, shifting your focus toward active recovery or lower-intensity endurance efforts.

🚀 Follicular Phase

As estrogen rises, your energy levels and pain tolerance increase. This creates the optimal window for high-intensity intervals and demanding training sessions.

âš¡ Ovulation

Estrogen reaches its peak, unlocking maximum strength and power output. While higher ligament laxity slightly increases injury risk, workouts remain challenging to fully capitalize on this performance peak.

🧘 Luteal Phase

Rising progesterone increases resting core body temperature, heart rate, and overall perceived exertion. Workouts scale back to steady-state efforts or active recovery, especially during the late luteal phase.

Seamless Integration with Apple Health & Google Health

Data synchronization is fully automated and privacy-focused. CD Coach syncs your cycle data directly through Apple Health and Google Health.

How to Get Started

  1. Authorize CD Coach to read menstrual cycle data in your device's settings.
