Hi, everyone. Welcome back. Today I have Dr. Payton with me. She's a doctor, physical therapy,

Evel instructor, C-O-O of EVlo. And we are talking about weightlifting and exercise for fertility,

a common question and a common topic that we get asked. Now, a couple of things before we get into the questions for today. So Peyton has her own journey of fertility and IVF,

and you have talked about that at length in what episode? I can't remember the number. We can put

it in the description. Yeah, we can put, we have a few different ones where we got like my specific journey and then we talked about PCOS specifically. Yeah,

maybe we'll link all of the episodes that we've done to this point. Yeah. Um, but today's episode

will just be kind of more general if you are trying to conceive. This isn't about a diagnosis

specifically. So this isn't about like if you've been diagnosed with PCOS, here's what to do.

It's more just like I'm trying to conceive.

I'm trying to increase my chances of conceiving.

How do I exercise around that?

Yep.

Exactly.

And I will also say that we have a big fertility doctor coming on the podcast.

We're interviewing her next month.

So watch out for that.
