Bon Posted July 14, 2002 Posted July 14, 2002 I've noticed the last two times where I've gone hard in sparring I've ended throwing up. I'm training in the morning which I normally don't do, first time I chucked up my breakfest, so that's fair enough I suppose. Today I didn't eat anything, I only drank water before I went. I ended bringing up juice that I drank last night at around 12am. I thought the 9 and a half hours inbetween would be more than enough time for my body to get rid of it. Am I throwing up 'cause my anaerobic endurance is low ? Generally when someone gets a knee on stomach is when I start feeling pretty sick.. Anyone have any ideas ? It takes sacrifice to be the best.There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.
KickChick Posted July 14, 2002 Posted July 14, 2002 Bon this can be a combination of many,many things. People get nauseated when their blood sugar is low. You should eat some carbs 45 minutes prior to your workout. Also some people can't drink water, even lukewarm, during an aerobic workout, or they immediately feel like vomiting. Drink prior to not during and wait say 15 min. after. Also make sure to breathe in & out correctly while doing your aerobic activity!
Bon Posted July 14, 2002 Author Posted July 14, 2002 KickChick, thanks, that's the post I was waiting for! =p Btw, a little hard to worry about your breathing when a guy has knee on stomach, heh. So an orange or bannana before training would be a good idea ? It takes sacrifice to be the best.There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.
Eye of the Tiger Posted July 14, 2002 Posted July 14, 2002 Always drink a lot of water an hour before any training regime. Just 2 glasses of water keeps me fine for 2 hours of physical activity, without the need to drink. And like KickChick said, eat plenty of Carbohydrates an hour before.
KickChick Posted July 14, 2002 Posted July 14, 2002 ...yeah, I'd imagine breathing would be difficult in that given situation. When punching or kicking the technique has to finish while air is coming out or the lungs. Breathing should be done with nose at all times. Breathing with the mouth comes in most cases more natural but is less healthy then breathing through the nose. In sparring it is very dangerous to keep the mouth open. In case of a punch or a kick hitting the head while the mouth is open can cause teeth to chip, tongue damages or the jaw can easily dislocate with painful conseguences. It's very important to remember that while performing hard physical work (e.g. sparring) the body requires extra oxigen intake. While sparring it is essential to show the fact that you are not running out out of breath .... so working proper breathing is important!
