How much exercise is right when you’re trying to conceive?
From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, your menstrual cycle flows through 4 phases - each with different energy needs.
By considering your movement to these phases, you can:
✨ Support Yin & Yang balance
✨ Nourish Qi & Blood
✨ Reduce stress
✨ Encourage an optimal cycle
The 4 Phases:
Menstrual – Passive Yin: Gentle movement, conserve energy.
Follicular – Yin building: Gradually increase activity.
Ovulation – Yin to Yang: Moderate cardio & circulation boosting.
Luteal – Yang phase: Gentle to moderate exercise, avoid overstraining.
💡 Always adapt to your rhythms, fitness level, and how your cycle feels
