Why do you exercise during your physiological period?
Moderate exercise during menstruation can improve our physical level, improve blood circulation, help the contraction and relaxation of abdominal muscles and pelvic floor muscles, and is conducive to the discharge of menstrual blood, so menstrual fitness also has many benefits.
However, strenuous exercise is definitely not recommended during menstruation.
I recommend some exercises similar to static yoga to female friends during menstruation. You only need to keep a posture for a few minutes to achieve the purpose of menstrual fitness.
