Exercise during your PERIOD? Is it okay?

Today I'm on red alert! Yes, that time of the month where we're supposed to discharge gallons of "dirty" blood for days or even weeks (for some). And yes, this day is probably the most annoying, most crazy and most bothersome for all the girlahs! Ugh. And yes, this is also "that" time of the month when I'd like to turn back time and be born as a male homo sapien. 😂

On that note, can the V handle exercise on these days?
Hmm. According to my research, exercise during your period is actually beneficial for you - except for YOGA! Thank God I don't do yoga. Based on this article by womenshealthmag.com:


Ayan so to sum it up - YES, you can exercise during your period, girlfriends! On the beginning of your cycle - light exercises can do. When you feel a lot better (patapos na ang menstrual period), you can do your usual strength training routines, and maybe cardio (after your period). And of course, you can totally take some day offs!

Like Nike's tagline ---- Just do it, girl! 😉




P.S. This isn't a review blog. Sorry for this random post. I felt extra productive today. 💚
