So, I'm a new year exercise newbie .
I've got into a great routine for the past three weeks that has been bloody life changing. I've been doing a combination of gym (cardio/weights) and some classes (yoga, body combat, dance) 4-5 times a week and have been feeling brilliant. Have been eating really well, too, and generally feeling great.
However, I suffer from really bad PMT (cramps, terrible moods, zero energy). My period is due in the next couple of days and I feel awful. I ate loads of crap yesterday. I retched over my morning porridge and had white toast and jam instead and it all went down hill from there! I have woken up today feeling like shit - exhausted, stomach pains, foul mood and tearful. I have yoga at 10am and am determined to go...but just wondered..what do others do when you have PMT/bad periods? Do you exercise through it? Does exercise make you feel better? Or do you rest? What exercise is best when you've got PMT cramps? And how on earth do you manage the awful sugar/carb cravings?!
Thanks for any advice offered.
