I refuse to let my period affect my workout routine. My workouts give me stress relief and period pain relief so it would be counterproductive! I’m a period pants convert and love everything about what they offer. They are environmentally friendly and sustainable, kind to the body, easily washable and reusable and very kind to the purse. I’d been using my usual ‘everyday’ period pants to workout in, up until receiving the Puma X Modibodi Active Cheeky Brief. I had been getting along ok with this however, for heavier days and in some styles I do find them a bit bulky and would avoid those particular ones on workout days.
My exercise of choice is yoga, which equals tightly fitted yoga pants – not the best combination when on your period. The last thing I want is unsightly and uncomfortable bulges when I’ve got my legs up in ‘happy baby’. So I was very keen to try out this style of period pant which promised the same level of absorbency (recommended for moderate to light flow) but with a slimline fitted style that promised to solve the problem of the bulge. I chose the size S/10 to fit my usual size 10 and they fit really well.
Upon inspection, these navy blue pants with the Puma waistband appeared quite thin and lightweight and not much different from normal knickers, so I was curious to see if they could prevent leakage during a workout.
I put them to the test in an hour-and-a-half long yoga workout that didn’t shy away from any extreme stretching and open poses. I didn’t feel like I was wearing period pants at all and felt totally confident in them. They were so comfortable that I wasn’t even aware of them during my workout, when usually the bulge does cross my mind in certain poses. I think these are really stylish to look at as well and I would absolutely now buy more Puma X Modibodi pants for workout days to give me that extra level of confidence.
If you have tried period pants before and are looking for a solution for any kind of workout, these are ideal. Likewise, if you are new to the idea of period pants these lightweight ‘no bulge’ pants are a fabulous way to start and have complete comfort throughout the day.
The pants retail at £21.50 and are currently at a reduced price in the Black Friday sale. The sizes range from 8 to 20 and can be purchased at: https://www.modibodi.co.uk/products/puma-x-modibodi-active-cheeky-brief-light-moderate-persian-blue
As period pants go Modibodi have a superb track record and this collaboration with Puma is another example of providing great products that give you exactly what you need. I give this product a 5/5, as a secret weapon for ensuring undisrupted exercise routines all month long.
