A gentle 30-minute workout for days when you're feeling low energy

"Should I work out on my period?" is a question that fitness coach Beverley Cheng hears a lot. So, it wasn't particularly surprising when her time of the month workout quickly became the most popular video in her series for CBC Life.

Now she's back with part two! In the latest video from her series Fit for Me, Beverley leads you through 30 minutes of deep stretches and mobility exercises that are ideal for when you're dealing with cramps, bloating or low energy, but still want to get some gentle movement in. While a resistance band is recommended, you can also do the entire routine using just your bodyweight.

Check out the video, then scroll down for the full list of exercises in this workout. Let's get started!
