Girls are especially prone to this since they have lesser muscles than men. However, they should learn about diets and nutritions that they can use after a workout for recovery. In this regard, they should take plenty of carbohydrates after working out, for this is sure way of recovering fast and making feel rejuvenated. Proteins too are crucial, for they repair any worn out tissues in the body.</p>
<p>In fact experts recommend that the ratio of proteins to carbohydrates should be around 1:2 respectively. Girls should also know that a post work out consumption of proteins and carbohydrates is likely to replenish the carbohydrates store in their muscles. After resting and cooling, they should then take plenty of water. Water not only aids in digestion, but refresh and make skins glow. The water should be taken at intervals, and the more one can take, the better.</p>

<p>Acupuncture, an ancient Chinese technique where specific pressure points in the body are stimulated by fine needles to cure illnesses, still finds a place in contemporary medicine because of its effectiveness. A notion exists that acupuncture is only effective in muscular pain relief. However, it has proved to be remedial for many afflictions, including many afflictions that women face. A majority of women suffer from PMS i.e.</p>
<p>Pre-Menstrual Syndrome which results in many symptoms such as Irritability, headaches, muscle pain, feeling bloated due to increased water retention, breast tenderness and mild depression. These symptoms can range from mild to debilitating. Acupuncture can help fight PMS better than conventional medicine. This is because Acupuncture seeks to restore the body&#8217;s balance holistically and not just treat the symptoms. Women also face Dysmennhorea, commonly known as menstrual abdominal cramps. While pills are available for pain relief, they don&#8217;t offer a permanent cure.</p>
<p>Acupuncture, taken at the right time during the menstrual cycle can help alleviate these cramps by mobilizing the body&#8217;s principal energies known as the Yin and Yang. Acupuncture can also help lessen the symptoms of Menopause such as hot flushes, weight gain, palpitations and insomnia. Hormonal replacement therapy used conventionally can have many side effects which aren&#8217;t seen with Acupuncture. It is also believed to be effective as a cure for Endometrosis and Infertility.</p>

On one end there is an excitement of new life growing inside you and on the other side morning sickness and hormonal changes affects your fitness levels and activities. Here are some of the ways in which you can remain in top shape all throughout your pregnancy:</p>
<p>Before starting with any pregnancy workout like swimming or yoga it is advisable to consult your physicians so that there is no negative effect on the health of the child and mother.</p>
<p>Go for early morning or evening walks which will not only provide you with fresh air but will also relax your body and improve blood circulation. Also walking raises the progesterone levels which is needed for the growth of the child<br />
Remember to have a proper diet that is rich in proteins, folic acid, iron and other essential minerals. Some people take a lot of fat during pregnancy believing it will be helpful in child growth but it only adds extra kilos to your body without actually helping the baby.</p>
<p>Also drink a lot of fluids. Consume 3-4 liters of water, juice and have 2 big glasses of milk daily during your pregnancy period.</p>
<p>Lastly take adequate rest and sleep which will help you stay fit and active during pregnancy.</p>
