For me, if I don\u2019t eat enough before I exercise, I can get really lightheaded. But I know for other people, they\u2019re completely fine fasting for hours before a workout. Either way, I wouldn\u2019t recommend exercising within 30 minutes of last eating a meal because nobody likes throwing up.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Keely F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I believe it\u2019s better to exercise before eating. I can always get more done, push myself the hardest, and then reward myself with a healthy meal afterwards. Sometimes if I eat first, I lose my motivation and my energy to do the most.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Wendy U.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Id say its better you exercise a little bit everyday if you wanna exercise directly after eating thats fine too just make it an habit we got this\ud83d\udcaa<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Pinkfedoras N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">No! This is because the food needs time to digest into the body, otherwise you&#39;re gonna have an unpleasant time in the restroom. It&#39;s best to wait 15-30 mins (depending on how harsh the exercise is to the body) to let the food digest a little bit &#8211; then, you&#39;re free to do whatever.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jo W.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It really depends on yourself and how much you eat. For example, if you eat too much, you could throw up. If you eat a little like a snack, you may not. It\u2019s up to you, but I recommend exercising after, so you don\u2019t feel lightheaded while working out.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Harp P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">No, because you might throw up or be hungry afterwards and you don&#39;t want to double up your calories if u know what I mean.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Lois S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I would suggest no, the moment we eat our body would need energy to digest the food and spending the energy in exercise would effect digestion. Also from my personal experience, I used to feel vomiting sensation when I started running after have a little milk.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sa Ba O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">U should always eat before exercise if it&#39;s not soft yoga or stretching, but after eating u should wait 1 or 1:30 hours at least to do intense workout or etc.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jesse N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think that start exercising before eating breakfast can ensure a reward after you\u2019re done the sessions and willing to work out more<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sol Ne T.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Depends on what I&#39;m doing that day. Cardio? No food for the 2-3 hours before the workout. I end up with a cramp if I eat anything too close to a run. If I&#39;m doing a strength-byilding routine, I need a little fuel beforehand. A couple eggs or a protein bar does it. But if I&#39;m doing both cardio and strength, I bring a carb-based snack with me to refuel after my run.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Xylia Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Personally I wouldn&#39;t. Only because for me, I can get cramps due to it. I also find myself too lethargic or full to exercise and will find those as my excuse.<\/p>\n<p>I also notice that if I exercise before I eat I&#39;m definitely more awake. I&#39;m able to conquer the world when I do it that way.<\/p>\n<p>So it depends on the person! I know some people can exercise right after a meal, but I&#39;m not one of them! I&#39;ll admit it! I&#39;m more lazy after eating if I don&#39;t exercise before I eat.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chlo Z. its definitely unhealthy to do exercise right after eating food.
