It can take time to find an activity that you love. Keep searching for it before writing off all sport/exercise. Your body and mind will thank you for it later 🧘♀️
⭐️Manage stress - make time for your body and mind.
⭐️ Improves concentration - can help with productivity & school work.
⭐️ It’s FUN - find something you love! Yoga, boxing, walking, weights.
⭐️ Can be social - call a friend during a walk or do an online workout with a friend👯♀️
Who said you need much time/equipment to get a good workout?!
Tonight we did 20 minutes of intervals ⬇️:
⭐️ Super varied exercises 🤸♀️
⭐️ Fast + intense 🔥
⭐️ Cardio + resistance training 💦
⭐️ FUN!!! 💃🏼

Is it any wonder that periods are a primary reason girls sit out of PE? If talk about periods more, remove the stigma, let our friends know it's not gross or weird, how much nicer would the experience be - especially during sports and PE.
