Today I'm taking you through a quick Mat Pilates class to help you de-bloat and de-stress during the Luteal Phase of your cycle. We incorporate twisting oblique exercises and upper abs work, but avoid adding pressure to your lower back and lower belly areas.

This workout is part of a mini cycle series that I am sharing to hopefully introduce more of you to a cycle-based workout routine. These quick 10-15 minute workouts are designed to address your body's differing physical needs during each phase of your cycle. If you want to learn more about the four phases or cycle-syncing in general, check out the Align Your Cycle program - it has introductory videos explaining each of the four phases of your cycle plus a 150 page book that explains how you can workout, eat and live in alignment with your hormonal cycle.
