Monthly exercise

[Shirley Panek]

I apologize in advance if anyone is offended by this posting, but that being said ... Have any of you ladies noticed a difference in your workout during "that time of the month"?

I find that I sweat more and it feels like I have to work harder (I feel kind of sluggish, almost "out of shape) during my workouts. Does this mean that I'm burning extra calories? (Please say yes, please say yes ...) Wouldn't THAT be a bonus!

I agree with the 'sluggish' feeling, like I can't get going. I do try to moderate myself abit then anyways. I do yoga & walk, but usually only do yoga that week unless my DH and I go out for a hike/walk that is non-exercise related.
Extra calorie-burn? I wish.....
:D

I never really thought of it before. However, this week was that time, and although I felt sluggish, I attributed it to Jetlag and trying to get back into a routine after almost 2 weeks off. I will pay more attention next month.
