Do it or not?

Don't overwork during menstruation, your body will be overwhelmed.

Avoid taking part in some fierce competitions. Taking part in these sports during menstruation, due to mental stress, leads to endocrine dysfunction and menstrual disorder.

It is best to adjust exercise during menstruation. For example, on the menstrual day of 1 2, you can do some light activities such as radio exercises, aerobics, Tai Ji Chuan and qigong. On the third and fourth days, you can increase the amount of activities, such as toto volleyball, badminton and table tennis. We should also relax the tense parts of the waist, abdomen and back, do more soothing exercises combining stretching and breathing, and don't do sports with great vibration, such as violent running and jumping, volleyball spike and basketball jump shot. It is even more impossible to carry out strength exercises to increase abdominal pressure, such as lifting barbells and strenuous abdominal exercises. Activity time should not be too long, generally 15-30 minutes is appropriate. For women who have no sports foundation, games, cold baths, swimming and other sports are not suitable during menstruation (well-trained women and athletes can participate in these sports appropriately), and it is better to feel comfortable after exercise.
