If you can deal with the cramps you're gonna get, go for it but in future, excercise before you eat.

to allow time for digestion\nif u dont wait, u may cramp up and u wont be able to swim if the tide takes u out too far.\n\n\n\nActually, the recommendation \nto wait an hour after swimming probably should be applied to most forms of \nphysical exercise/exertion.  When you eat and the food gets into the \nstomach and then into the small intestine (where most of the work of \ndigestion and absorption takes place), the body 'pulls' extra blood into \nthe body's middle (around the internal organs), so that the nutrients can \nthen be transferred into the blood and sent to the rest of the body.  \nSince you have a fixed amount of blood in your body, the amount of the \nblood that is left in the outer muscles must then be less.  So, you have \nless blood in the large muscles that you need for exercise...and that \nincreases the chances for muscle cramping (due to the production of by-\nproducts, such as lactic acid, which are toxic to the muscles).\n\n     Dr. Titchenal also mentioned that maybe where the 'old wive's tale' \nabout waiting for swimming, in particular, originated because when you are \nswimming you are usually face-down.  This might make you more prone to \ngetting sick to your stomach and throwing up, because of the stomach being \nfull and your face is in the water.  I wonder if anyone ever tested this \nafter eating by swimming face down and then swimming on his/her back?\n \n     So, bottom line:  it may be a good idea not to exercise for about an \nhour after eating (particularly a big meal), regardless of the exercise.

its good to eat a good meal after a workout as it replenishes your body. just eat healthy, lots of rice, pasta, fresh fruits, veg and lean meat, chicken and fish. dont have a big meal before u workout. some fruit is good and gives u energy. save the meal for after. eat well and healthy and get plenty of sleep and u will do well.

if you exercise alot or just started to exercise your metabolism may be running pretty high and it may need more calories to keep it in balance.. this should even out though after exercising for awhile.. \nif not that then you need to eat the largest meal at breakfast with alot of protein, and a medium meal at lunch, and then at supper.. its OK to have snacks and smaller meals too.. in fact its healthier to eat 5 small meals rather than 3 large ones..

At such a tender age 6/2 hours of sport is sufficient your body is still growing and thus is vulnerable to strains and sprains.if your diet is adequate there should´nt be any problem but with so much sport you are burning a vast quantity of calories,if you do have a strain rest it completely going back to soon often finishes a playing career.

you'll be in better shape, and a better soccer player, but remember that muscle weighs more than fat.  \nsweating isn't necessarily good or bad.  it's your body's natural cooling mechanism.  but remember- no matter how much you sweat, always stay hydrated, or you risk serious health problems.  you should drink about 16 oz of water (or any other fluid really, it doesn't much matter) for every 30 minutes or so of serious exercise.

A few minutes after you eat.  When you eat, your metabolism starts to kick in.  Working out increases your metabolism, therefore helping you to burn more fat.

I am a youth wrestling coach, and would have to discourage you from this very dangerous act. Instead of doing unhealthy things why don't you try going for a jog in the morning wearing an extra layer or two of clothing, try eating breakfast after weigh ins. Try not to drink anything before weigh ins either. Weighing in in the buff can also help with those 5 oz that are knocking you out of your weight class. Don't ruin your body for the sport. Good Luck Grappler!!

It is an old wives tale. The oly way it could really harm you is if you're a competitive swimmer, and you eat a big meal. Then you risk cramping.

Well am a swimmer and have swam since i was little. I was always told to eat bananas, bagles, pasta, etc. All of those are good and help with your swimming. I knwo this isnt healthy but my coach always had me eat a choclate bar about 30 min before a race to give me energy, it helped alot!  Good Luck , oh by the way i would suggest not drinking pop the week before a swim meet or the day of one

Well, I don't know how it relates to Iron, but my coach always said you should eat pasta.  But not right before the game.  You want to give it time to digest.  You'll play better on an emnpty stomach.  Not to the point where you are hungry and weak, but where your stomach is no longer trying to digest the food and you can use all of the nutrients.

Sports people needs a good balance of nutritious food to keep them fit and healthy.Pasta can be taken but not too much becos of its calories content and may increase people's weight.

When it comes to sports nutrition, your weight makes you and ideal candidate to eat anything you would like, within reason.  There are a number of factors, other than the surface question to take into consideration, such as what is the length and/or duration of your run and the intensity with which you run.  If you are currently not eating before your runs, try having a snack consisting of carbohydrates and protein (i.e. a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on whole grain bread).  You will need to find what works best with your body, and this will take some trial and error.  Hang in there, and you will find the right balance of when and what to eat.  Also, look for articles and advice from Nancy Clark.  She's a sports nutritionist with great advice and number of columns on sport websites in addition to other publications.
