I ate right before I worked out today, but when I got done working out and cooled off I was starving.
My question is... if you are really hungry after you are done working out, is that a sign of a significant burn?

    Maybe yes, maybe no. Thirst often mimics hunger. It is however a good idea to plan to have a post workout snack especially if you feel famished after a session at the gym. That and a large glass of water!!

    I drank lots of water before, during, and after, and was still hungry :/
