So I was thinking we could take the opportunity to maybe counter the negativity by talking about things we like about ourselves or good vibes about femininity in general. Just trying to bring some positivity. :comfy:
Would prefer to keep comments on the womenby side of the gender spectrum.
Personally, I noticed that I don't cringe as often when I look in the mirror anymore. So, that's a start! I feel like I'm trying harder at life now than I ever have, and it's making a neat little feedback loop where the results of working on myself gives me the energy to do more. Among things I'm working on is being able to empathize with people, including people who aren't like me. And I think getting to experience being someone different really helped me to internalize the humanity in others. So yeah...just doing my best.
Looking forward to seeing what people have to say!
Lol it's not actually about improving your periods is about using your periods to improve your health. So like during certain phases doing light exercise is better (and strength training will actually be useless) whereas during others you could be strength training everyday with no rest days. The point is that the traditional advice of having a regular workout routine with rest days that you follow every week doesn't make sense for menstruating bodies
interesting
whats the suggestion for the phase that you bloat in. im trans and stuff and just bloat once a month for a couple days, pretty much like clockwork :thinkin-lenin:
Probably linked to higher estrogen build up which is when intense exercise won't do much. Just do light stuff then.
