The Synced Method™

The Synced Method has been developed by Seema Chopra to harness the females individual strengths, moods and energy within each phase of their cycle.

Research has shown that unfortunately we cannot apply a one fits all rule for training females around their menstrual cycle, so it’s vital for each individual to understand their symptoms and to feed that into the programme. Thereby a programme is created that is unique and backed by the physiology of female health.

This is EMPOWERMENT for the Active Woman:

Excel in your strengths

Balance training and recovery

Push boundaries during peak cycle strength

Supportive cohort and safe learning space

Safely developing fitness with research-informed strategies

It needs 100% commitment from you!

“16 days into the programme and my usual premenstrual lower back pain is unnoticeable! It feels so good”.

"I learnt how to fit in time for myself, time to do exercise and time for me to relax and become less stressed, a healthier & happier person. Seema understood the stresses of being a mother and, and what that does to your routine. I've learned a lot in terms of five minutes of meditation goes a long way".
