I never saw them in the action. If most of the pro's were this lacking in tactical development, it is not fair to expect amateurs turned coach to know more.

Pregnancy And Menstrual Cycles One of the regular problems women have to deal with in racing is their menstruation.
Some women have very little effect from their monthly menstrual cycle.
Others menstruate more heavily and need to alter their training to take this into account. Some women are fortunate enough that they menstruate lightly enough so they don't experience any difficulties in their riding. Most women are not this fortunate. This was to permit their bodies to handle the nutrient requirements of the menstruation while still having the nutrients or molecules needed to properly recover from their workouts. If a woman was still feeling a little weak or fatigued too easily, I also had them cut their anaerobic workouts short or do one less anaerobic day to maximize recovery.
