Guys I was wondering, why do I increase on my apetite after a swim.I eat like a monster after a good swim????
I mean when I workout the same happens but not to this extent.
Is it just the work which makes me hungry?????

Mostly because of the depletion of your carbs (energy source).. so be sure to replenish your body with simply and complex carbohydrates following physical activity.

Swimming seems to take more energy. You are keeping yourself from going under to far and moving in a certain direction. While doing this you are using almost all of your muscles.
