I'm pretty lucky in the fact that when it's "that time of the month," my symptoms are fairly mild. I feel a little crampy, bloated, and tired, but it doesn't interfere with my life too much. Sticking to my regular exercise routine usually relieves any discomfort I have, and it always lifts my mood.

How Does Your Time of the Month Affect Your Workouts?

I just don't feel up to exercising.

I just do lower impact or relaxing workouts.

I guess I'm lucky because I hardly have any symptoms and it doesn't interfere with exercise.

I do have symptoms, but find that exercise actually makes me feel better.

If you've never stretched using a foam block, then get ready to embark on a whole new realm in the world of stretching. Blocks can be used to get you deeper into stretches than you can on your own. This upper back release is a simple and relaxing exercise that will open your chest and shoulders.

When it comes to exercising, I have a few go-to activities that I always end up doing. I mix it up between running, biking, swimming, as well as outdoorsy activities hiking and kayaking. I love yoga, Pilates, and weightlifting.

The railroads are an important part of American history, and Rails-to-Trails is committed to preserving that history. This group transforms old railroad lines into recreational paths for biking, running, rollerblading, and walking. They've created a list of trails great for viewing the pyrotechnics of Independence Day away from crowds.

I have a competitive edge. I don't know if it stems from having older siblings, but if I'm doing the same task or activity as someone else, you can bet I'm secretly trying to beat her. I've noticed that while this is not favorable in many aspects of life (driving, anything involving my husband, etc.) it does have an advantage in fitness.
