ok lang ba mag exercise when you have your period at pag lack of sleep?

[pinkstone]

i exercise regularly at home..except when i have my period at pag kulang sa tulog,may narinig kasi ako na hindi raw pwede mag gym o mag exrcise pag kulang sa tulog. is it true? ayaw ko kasi sana mag absent ng exercise,lalo na during period,kasi one week akong hindi nakaka pag exercise

[angeleigh]

Okay lang naman magworkout ka kapag may period, basta wag ka lang magweweight lift, kasi bababa ang matress mo.

Kapag puyat naman, IMO, sayang lang ang workout, kasi hindi ka nakakapagconcentrate sa mga galaw mo, kasi nga puyat ka. Kung puyat ka sis, better na itulog at ipahinga mo na lang muna yan.

[pinkstone]

how about squats and lunges pag may period,ok lang din ba yun?

[aquacharly]

You can still exercise, but do not do your whole routine.  Do the lighter version, and more of the stretching stuff.   (I am not a PT, that is just my personal opinion)

[angeleigh]

^^I think squats and lunges are OK. For as long as you dont do weights.

[FridaGee]

walang problema yun as long as kaya mo.

[ravena]

with period ok lang mag exercise.

I would not go to the gym lalo na kapag puyat. and after exercise diretso ligo na baka lamigan ka, magkakasakit ka lang.

[Heatherette]

Ok lang mag-exercise pag may period. I told my trainer at that time na may period ako pero ok lang daw yun.

Pag puyat, never ever exercise. Nagawa ko na rin to at ayun hinimatay lang naman ako haha!

[caeca]

i'll disagree about not lifting weights when you have your period -- it doesn't affect your reproductive system. however, we girls tend to be weaker during the time right before our period, the first day, and a couple of days after. but pwedeng pwede pa rin magexercise.

pag puyat, i'd suggest to stick to exercise that doesn't require as much coordination and intensity. best case would still be wag magpuyat though.

[maribeth]

pag meron ka..ok na ok pa din mag-exercise...bakit naman hindi..

pag puyat ka..ok din..basta you know when to stop...just listen to your body...

from what i know exercise is OK even if you have your menstration.  but if you are doing yoga... then that's a different story.  I personally in my class am very strict and will not allow any of my students to practice if they have menstration.  specially on their 1-3 day of menstration.  why?  it has something to do with the energy AND the use of your core muscle when practicing yoga.  Actually i did try it before and practiced yoga on my 2nd day.  i practiced in the morning... come afternoon... my period stopped.  as in nawala talaga.  so it really is not adviseable to do yoga if you have menstration. by your fourth day... should be OK.. but no inversions like headstand, handstand... kasi well if you're inverted then the flow will not go out properly.  our menstration is something natural so we shouldn't stop it from happening. 

kung kulang ng tulog... SLEEP.  it is very important.

Most important thing to learn... listen to your body.  i know excercise can be really fun.  but we need to respect our body and let it rest din.   

Om Shanthi....

Pointless mag-ehersisyo kapag puyat. Kaya ka nga nag-eexercise para magka-energy di ba? Eh paano ka naman magkakaroon ng energy kung kulang ka sa pahinga? Lalo ka lang mapapagod.

As for exercising during your period, a nurse from my high school says dapat nga lalong mag-exercise kapag may period para mawala ang pain ng cramps. And based on my experience, that is very very true. When I was 16-17, I'd play tennis even if I had my period, and I would feel very light. When I was also running, nawala ang lower back pain ko. I would just make sure to change napkins after dahil pinagpawisan ako. Now that I'm not exercising, lumalabas lahat ng sakit-sakit ng katawan ko kapag may period.

Pag puyat bawal. also, it feels like a chore doing it.
Pag meron, alam ko dinidiscourage sa Yoga. Pero meron certain poses na pwede pag meron. Di naman yata masama sa ibang activities.

[Amphitrite]

ako...

kapag meron, ok lang. Noon nga swim training pa rin kahit meron hindi ako nagkaka-cramps kahit konti. Ngayon, stretch lang ng konti saka 5-mins sa elliptical.

kapag puyat, masakit sa ulo at nakakahilo kapag nag-exercise

[pinkstone]

thanks mga sis!

^oo nga, i tried exercising kahit puyat, sumakit ulo ko.

[mikelly]

i think advisable naman mag exercise if you have your period but when it comes to puyat, mahirap.  Parang di gumagana utak ko pag ganun, nakakapanghina din instead na mag gain ako ng energy. 

[cherub.rock]

i agree with most replies here. ok lang mag exercise if may period. . but for me, i just do light cardio and no weights. but if walang tulog? definitely not. it defeats the purpose of exercise. mas lalo akong ma-stress kapag puyat tapos mag exercise pa. i'd rather rest and sleep. i've done it a couple of times and i felt like fainting. i get light headed. instead na mag exercise ako, nahihiga lang ako sa mga bench dun sa gym. what a waste of time!

[scienceinnovation]

Ok lang ang mag work out kahit may period for good blood flow. Regarding lack of sleep a big NO! NO!. Mababa kasi ang BP ng mga lack of sleep ang tendency pwede silang mahilo and it will result to lost of consciousness while execising.

[wild_berries]

Period: Yes! It helps with your regular flow and against cramps or other PMS.

Lack of Sleep: NO!  Your body and muscle tissues needs to recover.
