Many women have disagreements about whether or not a person may be exercising during menstruation.
Exercise requires a lot of energy, but the body during menstruation usually feels more weak and uncomfortable than usual conditions.
Therefore, some of them eventually become lazy to exercise and prefer to sleep or just rest at home.
And according to Donnica Moore, MD, author of Women's Health for Life, exercising during menstruation can increase oxygen delivery throughout the muscle tissue, so it can relieve cramps, and reduce bloating.
Not only that, a number of other experts also say that exercise can overcome the anxiety, annoyance, and anger that is usually experienced by women during mestruasi.
Because when exercising the body releases endorphins that can be a natural painkiller and make a person feel happy.
Researchers from the University of Vermont found that by exercising just 20 minutes can make the mood better for 12 hours.
Exercising can affect a person's mental condition when in a bad mood.
Even so, there are still some things to watch out for when exercising during menstruation.
When abdominal menstruation will become more sensitive than usual conditions, so you should avoid abs exercises and yoga poses that are reversed.
Because it will actually make the blood flow more menstruation and painful cramps.
We recommend that you choose a relaxed sport that can still make the body move but not excessive.
For example with light cardio exercises, yoga, pilates, or a walk and jogging relax for a few minutes.
That way, the body will be more energized and free of the discomfort produced during mestruasi.
