Moderate Aerobic Exercise for Managing Menstrual Cycle Symptoms

"Participants will complete moderate intensity aerobic exercise for 30 minutes per session, progressing from three to five days per week to meet the minimum recommended aerobic physical activity guideline of 150 minutes per week set by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) over two menstrual cycles. Moderate intensity is defined as maintaining a heart rate within 40-59% heart rate reserve and a rate of perceived exertion of 11-14 light to somewhat hard on the Borg 6-20 scale."
