even though my weight and measurements have pretty much stayed the same this week, I am able to do more reps and run longer.  SOOO that is an improvement.

Question for the females:  does PMS or your period effect your work out? 

I am the type of person that doesn't crave chocolate or want to eat eat eat when I am getting my period, I am the totally opposite, I don't want to eat at all.  And on top of it, this week my pms was just out of control.  I felt sick and depressed, making it a huge struggle to work out.  Yesterday I just couldn't do it, I kept feeling like I was going to vomit everywhere.

PMS always makes my workouts feel harder. I have just come to accept this and have learned to forgive myself. There's nothing wrong with an easy (but not too easy) cardio workout once in awhile. You don't always need to be pushing yourself to the max to still see results. Use PMS days as lighter days...but keep exercising! It actually helps resolve most PMS issues. Good luck.

Ya see, I've heard that it's good to work out while you have your period because it helps out with cramps BUT i HATE working out during 'the time of the month' because i just feel so fatigued to begin with and i get worn out quickly. if i do work out while on my period i just take it easy, because i figure atleast i'm in the gym doing some kind of work out, even if it isn't vigorous it's better than sitting on the couch being a lazy bum!
