feeling sick after workout

Personally, my blood pressure drops really quickly after I work out so I really have to do an extended cool down or the same thing happens to me. Not saying that this is what is happening to you but maybe you just need a longer cool down before you hop in the car.

Are you eating enough food? Are you overdoing it at the gym? If you're new to working out, go easy on yourself... start something like 10 minutes light rowing and 15 minutes on the elliptical aiming to burm maybe 10 calories per minute instead of 17 or 18. Work your way up. If your gym has personal trainers, make an appointment and let them know your particular situation. Also make sure to eat a good breakfast far enough in advance so that you've digested the food but aren't hungry. It could be that carrot full tummy upsetting you.

Finally - drink enough water!

I have that same problem if I eat or drink a lot right before a workout... I've noticed I have to give myself at least 1 &1/2 hours after a meal before I can exercise or it makes me extremely nauseous...same thing if I drink like, a whole bottle of water before I exercise, it will make me feel sick...

This has only happened to me once after a very vigorous workout at the gym. I felt really great up until about 10-15 minutes AFTER I finished. I started to feel nauseous and developed a headache. The symptoms hung around for over an hour until my partner told me to drink some gatorade. I had had plenty of water so it wasn't dehydration as such, but apparently the loss in electrolytes or whatever other nutrients that sports drinks can help replenish in the body. Within 20 minutes I felt back to my usual self.

I suggest you drink a recovery drink after intense workouts if you're feeling sick. Grab a powerade or gatorade or something from your gym.

its probably your blood sugar drink some orange juice before or after or pb

In addition to what everyone else is saying, don't neglect your cool down. A lot of people just cut their intense workout at the end without properly cooling down and letting their heart rate drop at a slow pace. Make sure after you do your workout you walk around the track or on the treadmill slowly for a couple of minutes and do some stretching and deep breathing. It's really bad for you to just let your heart rate drop really fast, and maybe feeling sick is your bodies way of telling you that.

I've been in the Army for just shy of a decade and we do some pretty intense training to include 50 mile ruck marches with 100 pounds on your back and 25 mile runs for fun and cancer awareness and other things and one of the biggest problems I always saw with the newer guys is that even though they eat, they don't eat right and even though they hydrate, they don't hydrate right. I don't know your specific diet or hydration table, so please bear with me. You're body needs time to digest what you eat to turn the food you consume into the energy your body needs to survive. It's the same way with hydrating. Like everyone else is saying, you need to eat well enough in advance to ensure the food is out of your system before any major work out. Before a heavy workout you can't have that sitting in your stomach. That being said, we've always had success with eating today to prepare for tomorrow. Essentially, knowing what you're going to do tomorrow, be it intensive, moderate or light, you can reverse plan so you know what you need to eat today to have the energy tomorrow, (specifically a dinner meal, but all meals should be considered). The same goes for hydration. It is important to drink water while you do your workout, but more importantly is making sure your body is hydrated in advance. I drink about a half gallon at the gym everyday while i work out and then throughout the day I drink about another gallon or so to replenish what was lost and prepare for the next day. As far as meals go, before a heavy day I take high calorie, high protien and high complex carbohydrates to make sure my body has the stored energy it needs to function. Before a moderate or light workout, the same thing, just not as much quantity. Equally as important is the warm up and cool down. Before one of the 25 mile runs, we usually warm up with stretching* and calisthenics for 20-30 minutes and then after, we cool down for 45-60 minutes to make sure everything is stretched out and that our heart rates have returned to normal. *Please note that while stretching is important before any intense training, it is equally, if not more, important to stretch afterwards while the muscles are peaked to get maximum range of motion, maintain proper blood flow and improve flexibility. Pre-workout boosters or drinks or shakes are a personal preference and may or may not suit/help you. I'm sorry this was so drawn out, but I hope it was helpful.

Sounds to me like u may have hit the nail on the head!Most people do this...Cool down people!

I first time I went to the gym was when I was 11 I had realllllhy bad nausea... first is dont over do it and also dont eat too too much before going to the gym..I have always got nausea after a gym workout so if you do lie on a bed, floor, couch etc flat with your stomach 2 the celling then you want ro rub your stomach, eat maybe a quarter of a banana SLOWLY.and trrust me it helps

These are great suggestions. I recently have had the same symptoms. However I work out at 5:30am. So I'm not going to eat before I workout. But I'll have to try the electrolyte replacement afterwards. I was so sick today after I had a protein smoothie after my workout I didn't eat for the rest of the day.
