The PMSing Guide To New York

How annoying is it that every article about surviving your period says that exercise makes your period so much better? Don't you just wanna punch the writer in the face when they say that because the very last thing you wanna do on your period is exert energy while wearing yoga pants that highlight how bloated you are. Direct your punches at a punching bag at Shadowbox instead. They describe their workout as "intense shadowboxing and guided heavy bag work, paired with high-energy music, elements of interval training and body weight exercises." With a class like this, you'll get all the negative energy out of your system and by the time your period bloat subsides, you'll get a toned bod.
