Schedule PRs and harder training in the low-hormone phase

From day 1 of bleeding through ovulation, women generally have greater capacity for stress and may use this phase for PR attempts, heavier loads, and high-intensity work.

If we're looking at doing heavier loads, we're looking at doing high intensity work, we're looking at motivation, then that low hormone phase is really optimal for trying to hit a PR or trying to hit a new speed.
