Dr Stacy Sims - Hybrid Training as a Female Athlete
In this episode, we’re joined by the one and only Dr. Stacy Sims—researcher, author, scientist, and leading expert on female physiology and training. This was a real pinch-me moment for us! We’ve followed Stacy for years, read her books, taken her courses, and watched her TED Talks—so having her as our very first guest on Atalanta is an absolute dream.Our visions are aligned as Stacy’s mission is to help girls and women understand their unique physiology and to be empowered as active and confident females. Since science guiding women’s health and performance has been incomplete or based on male physiology, Stacy is leading the way to rewrite the path and she is doing an incredible job!Stacy competed in her first Hyrox in Auckland, and we kick things off chatting about that experience before diving into all the gold: hybrid training and fuelling strategies for women, training with your cycle, supplements, RED-S, returning to training postpartum, and so much more.This episode is a MUST listen for every female athlete!To learn more about the topics covered in the podcast or anything else related to female physiology and training, check out Stacy’s articles and newsletter.
