Exercise does not always have to bw intense but you&#39;ve got to keep moving.<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"thefa-test2 thefa-entity-placement\" id=\"thefa-3611173691\"><div id=\"thefa-1138914205\"><style>.thefa-test2 {margin-bottom: 24px;}<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"banner-content-position light-viol\">\r\n<div class=\"banner-text max400\">Procrastination is not laziness.

I respect my body when my period is heavy and I feel like resting. When I feel a little better, I go back to light exercises, like yoga.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Florence R.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I just continue as usual. I don\u2019t like to quit exercise just because of period, I use a tampon and don\u2019t think about it a lot tbh. I used to have strong pain during my period but exercise even made it better, my cramps are less strong.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Maria O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I definitely give myself more slack when I\u2019m on my period and minimise the amount of exercise I do. It\u2019s worth using tampons over pads when you\u2019re exercising as it is much more convenient &amp; you don\u2019t necessarily notice you are on your period as much.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Thea Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I try to make it, but evoid those exercises that will hurt too much. Actually, training every day, helps me to have less pain on my period.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Rebecca P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I usually have bad cramps only for a few hours each period, so I just avoid to exercise while I have them, and wait until they&#39;re gone. Anyway I don&#39;t like to let periods controls me. I just do everything like every other day. We are women, we can do a lot more than just exercise when we have periods! And if your cramps are really bad and you feel really tired all the time, it&#39;s probably best if you consult your doctor. Anyway, I find useful to eat more food with iron in it(red meat or veg options), using vitamins all year round and if cramps doesn&#39;t stop and your doctor says it&#39;s just normal, check out DAYE for CBD tampons that seem to be really effective and safe!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Luke O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I starve myself to the point that I no longer get my period.  It makes keeping my workout routine easy as pie.  Mmmmm, pie.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Felicia C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I give myself grace to rest but I do my best to do some cardio because my period is actually worse and more painful when I don&#39;t work out.  That alone is motivation enough for me. Don&#39;t workout &#x3D; intense mental cramps, workout &#x3D; less cramps, clots and more flow. Try it and see if you notice a difference. I&#39;m confident you will. Also, diet can significantly impact it too. So if you can eat cleaner that also helps.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Josefine C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I do stretch outs mostly focusing on the lower belly, and go for walks and so. I don\u2019t do hard cardio and stuff since I usually don\u2019t have the same energy on my period as if I wasn\u2019t on it<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Don E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think that in our period we have more time to spend in ourself. I think that if I can\u2019t do my first step on my gym routine only because I\u2019m on my period, I\u2019m trying to make another excuse to do nothing. So, keep on moving!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Luke O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I starve myself to the point that I don&#39;t get a period anymore.  It makes keeping my work out routine easy as pie.  Mmmmm, pie.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">L Andre O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Well, what I do is to make easy and low intensity exercises. I like walking or doing some slow Yoga or even a small streching routine always help.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vanesa C.
