Exercise after eating.

How long do you usually wait to do a workout after a meal?

DRJJ2004

I try for at least an hour..depending on how big my meal is and how I feel.

If it is going to be cardio heavy I will wait an absolute min of 30 minutes otherwise I get terrible stomach aches. Usually closer to 1-1.5 hours. Weight training doesn't produce the same results for me, so I can do that pretty much immediately, but usually don't.

Depends on how much I eat. But generally, I'll eat a meal about 2 hours before, and then have a small snack (usually a banana) about 30 mins before I do a cardio workout.

I have to wait at least an hour, hour and a half before doing any serious exercise otherwise i'm puking. I have GERD and while it's mostly under control now that i eat healthy and exercise, it does tend to rear its head when i work out. I even have to limit the amount of water I drink when i do my bootcamp classes. Nowadays, for my morning cardio, I have a banana before I go, just so i have some simple carbs for immediate energy and then have breakfast when i get back. I work out after work, which usually works out to about 1.5 hours after my last meal.

I usually wait about an hour.

I wait an hour to an hour and a half. Or else I get super nauseated.

I wait till I feel like I digested my food. If it was something small like a granola bar, maybe 10, 15 minutes? If it's something bigger, like a meal, perhaps half an hour, at that point I feel fine. I go by how my stomach feels.

After i eat, i drink alot of water, then half hour to hour I go for my walk and do crunches.

I normally do this. I eat very light dinners, so usually 30 minutes is fine for me. If I have a heavier dinner, I'm waiting closer to an hour.

It's nice when I can get it in before dinner, but it doesn't always happen.

I usually wait an hour after an actual meal. If I'm starving before working out, I do a protein bar or shake (usually do that before my kung fu class).

About an hour for me...otherwise it's like the food rips right through me, and that could be unpleasant for not only me but everyone around me...

I have to exercise before I eat or I have a VERY light snack to get my sugar up before exercising. If I have to exercise after eating I wait at least an hour to two hours.
