All girls and women knows how hard it can be sometimes
when we experience menstrual pains. Here I would like to share will you
some exercises to strengthen your muscles and improve your nervous system
so as to reduce these pains.
Exercise Number 1:
Place both your hands on your waist or place one hand on a wall. Stand up straight and tall.
Bend sideways to your left and then to your right. Slowly increase the angle in which you bend. Repeat 20 to 30 times.
Exercise Number 2:
Stand up straight. Bend your knees and slowly crouch down halfway, letting your arms
swing back in a natural position. Crouch down until your thighs are almost horizontal. Then stand up,
and let your arms swing back to the front of your body.
Exercise Number 3:
Lie down on the ground with your knees and front part of your arms touching the ground.
Tuck in your abdomen and tighten the muscles on your hips and your genital area. Remain in this way for a few seconds.
Slowly relax. Repeat this for 8-12 times.
Exercise Number 4:
Sit down on the ground. Gather your knees close to your body and wrap your arms around them. At the same time,
tuck in your abdomen and tighten your muscles around the genital area. Slowly relax. Repeat for 6-8 times.
Exercise Number 5:
Lie down on your back. Raise your legs to a slanting position.
Make sure your knees aren't bending. Move
your right leg and left leg upwards and downwards in alternating movements for a total of 20 - 30 times.
Exercise Number 6:
Stand up straight and place your hands on your waist. Swing your hips to the left and
then to the right. Slowly increase the size of your movement. Repeat this 8 to 10 times.
Do try doing these exercises daily. It will help a lot! Hope this is useful
for my fellow female Suite101 members :)
