Subject: Female Question & Tip Hello there Ladies,
Question: Can adding roughly half-again the aerobic exercise you're used to doing cause delayed cycles?
I haven't lost any weight because I've been lifting for awhile now, but I have gone from running an hour + every day to running that much and adding an hour of swimming twice a week and half an hour to an hour of biking two to three times a week. This is not a strain on my body; it feels GREAT. I have become a certified endorphin junkie.
I thought that cycles were only interrupted if you lost a ton of weight, which I have no designs on doing. Can exercise alone do it?
Tip: Just in case there are any ladies out there who have been blessed or cursed with a large chest, I found the BEST sports bra when I started running 3 weeks after our most recent little Viking was born. If a bra can contain the mammaries of a nursing mommy, it can contain anything. You can find it at www.figleaves.com and it is called the Shock Absorber.
I used to have to wear two bras the were each several sizes too small, and this one instrument of perfection takes care of the whole deal with no monoboob syndrome. Very cool. Thought I would pass that along for anyone who might need it. |
