PB after exercise?

[stepht7s 0]

Hi, I had a weird experience tonight. I PBd while eating chicken which shouldn't have been a problem. I chewed well so I was stumped on why it happened.:guess

Anyway, I exercised today and wondered if anyone had any experiences being more restricted afterwards?

Thanks!

Never after exercise but frequently on chicken.

It could have been an off day for you...see what happens next time.

Whats chicken? I think I remember, but it has been so long since I could eat chicken, I can't recall.

chicken is when you're scared to do something. Like how I feel when it's on my plate and I'm supposed to eat it.

hi steph,

funny that you posted this....i just started exercising again after being away at my vacation home for 2 months. and i am having alot more restriction.

my sister in law who is a nurse said this makes sense since muscles swell up after exercise. i never thought of my abdomen swelling but it is muscle.

for the last 2 days i have serious restriction. (i'm glad because i was getting too loose)

just thought i'd share this with you.

Definitely! I cannot eat after running, not for quite a while. At first I thought it was great, go for a run at 5.30 and eat no dinner, but I realise I need to eat so I try to run after dinner.

Definately interesting you posted this now...I just got back to the gym from about a 3 week hiatis (excuses not forthcoming). Feels great, gone 3 days in a row now, and I can't believe how sore my muscles are (or that they deteriorated so quickly)!

I've gone straight after work, before dinner...and all three days, there was NO dinner to be had. I noticed, on the drive home, that even sipping from my water bottle was uncomfortable! Last night, even had some mild reflux. Very weird, have had no problems eating or drinking...except after recent workouts. And I won't do dinner late, so I just bypass eating for the rest of the day. Tonight did the Protein Shake route.

Hope this calms down, or I'll rearrange my schedule to exercise in the morning.

I'll bite on the muscle swelling thought...any others?

I've never had that problem, but I'm a HUGE stickler to 20g Protein Shake 30-45min pre-workout and a 20g shake right after. I usually don't eat for a few hours after, though.
