That sick feeling

kevtheraise Posts: 42 Joined: 2001/04/07	2001/06/09, 05:46 AM Over the past week when training i have felt sick after my workout.And yesterday(leg day)after doing squats i had to stop and go to the bathroom in fear of throwing up!This means i could not train my hams or calves which really pissed me off.Anyone had the same experiance? I ate my pre-workout meal about 1 3/4 hours before training too!

Also what does your pre workout meal consist of? Is it loading with sugars? How much Soda POP do you drink before your workout? Are you consuming and Fat Burning aids? ~billk~

Did your face feel cool and numb? Did you see spots of red? If so, it's nothing uncommon. What you should do is simply take a break and most importantly drink water. Be sure to stretch out the muscle group your working on during this break. However, you might want to consult your physician if the sickness persists beyond what YOU think is normal. You might also want to check the supplements you're taking. I know first hand that Thermogenic products will give you a very unstomaching affect. Products like Hydroxy-cut, Xtreme Trim, Xenadrine, Metabolife, and countless others use a very high dose of caffeine. The caffeine acts as a catalyst for the main ingredient used in these "fat burners." However, the increased strain on you nervous system (which ephedra is known to do) could give you those faint feelings to. So if you're on the Thermogenic supplements, be sure to hydrate yourself frequently, and try to cut back at least to half the dosage. GOOD LUCK
