There's no set amount of time you should workout during your period. Listen to your body and adjust your exercise routine based on how you feel. Some days you might feel up for a longer, more intense workout, while other days you might prefer a shorter, gentler session.
Here are some factors to consider when planning your workouts:
- Your individual fitness level: If you're used to exercising regularly, you can likely maintain your normal routine, adjusting the intensity as needed. If you're new to exercise, start slowly and gradually increase the duration and intensity.
- Your menstrual symptoms: If you're experiencing cramps, fatigue, or bloating, opt for lighter activities like walking, yoga, or swimming.
- Your personal preferences: You know your body best, so choose activities you enjoy and find motivating.
Remember:
- Hydration is key! Drink plenty of water throughout your period.
- Listen to your body and rest when you need to.
- Don't push yourself too hard.
