newwhole30er Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Are these just for serious athletes? I am finally starting to exercise, with 15 minutes a day of Leslie Sansone's walk vidoes. So, not very strenuous at ALL. I'm doing them about an hour after dinner (which is a template meal of veggies, protein, and fat- and sometimes starchy veggies) and haven't been eating after. I've been feeling tired after doing them, but not actually hungry. Is this ok or should I tweak anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcbn Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Generally I'd say if you're doing some kind of exercise that raises your heart rate considerably for a sustained period of time and it is making you sweat then you need a postWO.I'm not familiar with the videos you've mentioned but I imagine you'd be okay without for now.

newwhole30er Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Do you think it's a problem to do it an hour or so after eating starchy veg? I've read elsewhere on the forum not to eat carbs before working out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcbn Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 The glucose (from the starchy carbs) will peak in the blood somewhere between 30mins to an hour after consumption so so long as you're not doing your work out earlier than that you should be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
