i always have troubles with my periods and i get really really sick when it comes. so my question is, should i push through and do my work outs anyway? or should i take a rest for a few days?

    it IS sooo much hard to get started, but it usually makes me feel better.

    Keep working out! I cut my caffeine, cut my sugar and take hard core meds. I find Running makes it a shorter visit :-)

    YES! Work through it! I'm in the same boat. I get sick and feel horrible throughout the entire thing unless I work out. Then I feel better after I work out though. Also, boil a little ginger root in some water. Add in a little tea and honey. It helps with cramps and taste pretty darn good!!

    I have a hard time keeping on track during this time, but have found that forcing myself to do even just a small workout helps incredibly.
