Aerobics is the other term for those kind of exercises involving stretching and strengthening of the muscles. Aerobics are very important especially when having your monthly because it alleviates the cramps and makes you feel better.Besides it helps in supplying oxygen to the muscles.Also, aerobics will help in boost your body and facilitate sleep which is very crucial especially when having your periods and it will help in boosting your metabolism which is very important.

Finally, aerobics allow free circulation of blood throughout the body which may at times cause anaemia (iron deficiency).Being seated all the time doesn't allow blood to circulate freely and that's why aerobics are important.

Aerobics is a form of exercise. Me, I describe it as a form of cardio exercise while you are dancing. There is nothing wrong if you do it when you are having periods, in fact, it is good for you whenever you experience cramps. Normally, when we are having cramps, we stretch our bodies and move a lot, so why not do some aerobics? This kind of exercise will help us move a lot and sweat a lot. This will lessen the pain in our stomach and will also help in blood flow, not only for the period itself but in every part of our body. We will get tired after and the pain will go away for sure after an hour. Aerobics also will help us to sleep better at night. Sometimes when we have periods we are irritable. This kind of exercise will make us tired that all we need to do is to jump on our bed and sleep. Exercise is good for our bodies. It even makes our skin smooth and hair shiny so why not do it even when we are not having periods?

From my understanding, any kind of exercises and not just aerobics are healthy for any female who is in her monthly menstruation to take part in. These exercises comes in handy with assisting them to have their menstrual pains and cramps relived. Some women suffer from severe pains and cramps whenever they are undergoing their monthly menstruation. There are some who would need to take pills in order to help them get through the pains. My immediate junior sister happens to fall among the kind of females that needs to take pills as a result of menstrual pains.


Aerobics exercises are definitely going to be of immense help to reducing these menstrual pains but I took to research and discovered another way to help with reducing the pains and it with the use of hot water poured in a bottle and placed on the stomach. It stops or reduces the pains drastically.

Every girl who has grown into womanhood understands what menstruation pains and cramps is all about. There are some lucky ones who doesn't feel much pains but only little cramps just for few times and the menstruation will stop but there are the unlucky ones who pass through hell within the four to six days menstruation duration, and even with drugs, they still feel a lot of pains.

Aerobics workouts can very well help to alleviate the menstruation pains and cramps because it helps to enhance blood circulation in the body, which we all know that menstruation have to do with losing blood and it's not an easy thing to do by bleeding for four to six days every month. My own menstruation pains me averagely but I don't take any drugs to help the pains stop.

Yes it is very advisable for you to do aerobics which is a form of exercise during your period. Exercises have that relaxing and relieving effect on our muscles and entire body. Make sure that you are doing something mild and not very strenuous. You can practice the ones that target your abdominal muscles.
I would suggest that you add more stretches. This can really help especially when you have cramps. Aerobics can increase blood flow to all parts of the body hence you'll have much ease with less cramps. Just make sure that you aren't doing anything that would make you fatigued.

You can also consider drinking a lot of water during your period. It aids transportation of nutrients and blood flow. Add a proper diet to it and you'll be fine.

Yes, you can, but it has be minor aerobic exercises not those intense one that can make you tap out at the end of doing them. Aerobic exercise become necessary during this period of menstruation because it helps to relief cramps and pains. It is believed that as you engage in aerobics, there is great amount of circulation of blood to those regions where pains or cramp is being experienced. And this immense blood flow allows the conveying of essential nutrients and oxygen contained in the blood. That is why is not only advised to do aerobics but also to improve on you diet. Consume foods that can elevate your mood, especially balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. You can also consume foods that have high amount of magnesium as they are needed for the functioning of muscles and nerves.

Yes, you can do aerobics during your periods. However, it is important to note that every person’s body is different and you should listen to your body and adjust your level of exertion accordingly. You may find that during your menstrual cycle, your body is more sensitive to exercise and you may need to adjust your routine so that you don’t over-exert yourself.

Some people find that aerobics withoutmoderate pressure air can be quite challenging, while others prefer air pressure aerobics.
