Me too, some people are just that way.0
-
I have always been that way. It's one of the reasons I don't like to exercise at lunch time during the work week.0

Me too, a tomatoe is pale in comparison. I look at the bright side, it brings out my bue eyes0
-
Me too, which is why I never work out in the morning before going to class/work. People assume I've been crying.0

I get red only if I exercise hard in the Summer months. Especially if I've walked 8 miles or so. I've had people stop me concerned. I'm a natural redhead with dark eyes so I tan, I really don't get what makes it happen as my skin is pretty thick for a red head. I guess it's as my husband says "better red than dead".. what ever that means!!0

I get red faced too but I think the fitter I get, the better it gets.0

I called pbs radio doc Zorba Paster several years ago about my red face, and he said that we're just very good at releasing heat from our faces and heads!0

Mostly just has to do with your body and complexion, but there's always those few people who just forget to properly breathe during exercise so make sure you're doing that!0

Me too! I used to be embarrassed about it, but now I honestly can't be bothered to care much. I used to think people would assume I was out of shape when they looked at me, but over the years I've come to accept it. I'm pretty pale and eventually realized it's nothing I have the power to change. If I'm not red after exercise, I start questioning how hard I worked. Keep rocking the red face! I don't really even notice it now.0

I do too so when I am done working out I take cool wash clothes and hold them on my face for a few minutes. It really helps in my opinion. I rinse with fresh cool water and hold for about 30 seconds for about 5 minutes.0

Thanks guys i really panicked as i looked and felt sunburned i presum its as im so unfit and.people were really concerned soo embarassing0
-
Pale girl here! I get really red after cardio! It's worse if I haven't worked out I'm a while so hopefully as you build up your endurance it will improve. No shame in being pale though haha0
-
Yeah im really pale aswell lol hope so its so embarassing0
-
Happens to me, too. Plus my face is hot for hours afterward. If I exercise outside, I'm careful to always remember sunscreen, because sun exposure makes it worse. Any kind of wind, too.
I took a course of Accutane in my thirties due to severe acne (on my back--I never had acne on my face, not even in adolescence) and my face has been redder, in general, ever since. It's just me, now.0 -
Aww really yeah mines feel.sunburned and.so warm.for ages after too0
-
i get it too. i've read it's genetic.
but also i am a sweater too. so i totally look like a hot mess0 -
Yeah thinkcit.might be genetic coz my brothers the same just aswell i dnt wear.make.up.to class haha0

I have always been that way. It's one of the reasons I don't like to exercise at lunch time during the work week.
This. I totally envy the girl in the team behind me who goes out to the gym at lunch and comes back looking just as fresh faced! Also agree that we should just embrace it though0 -
Yep. When I was a teen I used to sneak out to play volleyball when I should have been doing my homework. My face would always betray me and get me in trouble.0
