MENSTRATION DURING EXCERCISE
If possible you should still continue to run when you are menstruating. Running has helped many females during premenstrual tension (PMT).
The following symptoms have improved including a reduction in the bloating feeling often associated with menstruation, less tenderness of the breasts and normal menstruation fatigue can be reduced by being active.
Keep a diary of how you feel during your menstruation cycle and you will learn what exercise suits you when. Many women find they are tired in the first 4 days of their period starting, everyone is different.
If you exercise most days then workout every other day. Are you better doing a shorter session a little harder or a longer steady workout? Also try training little and often this can be less taxing.
Do you need complete 24-hour breaks without exercise to feel better again?
Consider all your individual options, keep a diary see what works best.
The best advice is to speak to other females of a similar age and lifestyle.
