Exercises and gymnastics during menstruation

When is it best to mitigate the intensity of your workout?
When the period, should be more careful when doing gymnastics. An investigation of the Portland Hospital in London found that the menstrual cycle has an influence on muscle lesions. It is because of two hormones: estrogen and relaxin. The first is responsible for strengthening the muscles and tendons, and no longer produced in the middle of the cycle.

And Relaxin dilates the cervix during menstruation and weakened tendons. Therefore, the ideal is to decrease the intensity of your workout in this part of your period. Try to make bicycle which has a low impact strength.
