Should You Exercise During Your Period? Workouts, Calories & Cycle Syncing - Day 69

Should you work out on your period? Should you eat more calories during your period? And does cycle syncing actually work? Today we’re separating menstrual-cycle science from social-media hype.We cover whether you should lift weights, do cardio, rest, eat more, or change your workouts during your period, plus what research actually says about strength, muscle growth, HRV, cramps, hunger and temporary period weight gain.The bottom line: your period doesn’t automatically mean you should train harder OR take it easy. Train based on how you actually feel and perform, not what a cycle-syncing calendar tells you to do.TODAY’S RECOMP TARGETS💪 PROGRESS: Add weight or reps to one exercise next workout.🥗 PLAN: Pre-log tomorrow’s meals tonight.🚶‍♀️ MOVE: Get up and move for a few minutes every hour.💪 WANT THE WORKOUTS?Stop guessing in the gym.
