We study equilibration and hydrodynamic response in systems undergoing periodic expansion and contraction in one spatial direction. We use strongly coupled holographic, weakly coupled kinetic and hydrodynamic frameworks to study the shear response to periodic drive for different amplitudes and frequencies. Unlike the monotic Bjorken expansion, the system does not approach equilibrium or even Navier-Stokes behavior. For small drive amplitudes and frequencies, the late time cyclic attractor is universal across systems and is described by MIS theory. For large drive amplitudes, the non-linear heating induces the drift in the system properties and the attractor behaviour.
