In the days before menstruation, usually your exercise performance will decline.However, some of the negative impact of PMS can be minimized by knowing your exact steps. Here are some factors that need your attention:

But the menstrual cycle also affects your metabolism. During the luteal phase, 1-2 weeks before your menstrual period, then your body will experience a drastic increase in metabolism, so it will burn more calories and more quickly in your body. At this time, most women also experience increased appetite, and eventually more will they eat the calories than they burn. So make sure you keep eating healthy foods during this period.

So, if you do intense exercise, which also increases body temperature, you may be uncomfortable, and therefore you can not maintain a very high intensity exercise.

So you can train harder during this period.
• Carrying excess water during the luteal phase will also affect your exercise performance, especially if you enter in the menu to run your practice.
Additional “burden” this will make you feel as if the train harder than usual.
• Training Development
Keep in mind the factors mentioned above while undergoing training and diet during your cycle.
