Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below yeah.... i dunno if this is the right forum to ask this in, but i've got a question: Sometimes when I work out I'll be working out for maybe 30 minutes but then I'll start to get a little dizzy and a bit sick to my stomach. I get a drink of water from the drinking fountain, but that seems to just make it worse. So I was wondering if anyone knows why this is? Could it be that I'm simply dehydrated and should drink more water during the day? Or am I possible overworking myself? I'm 18 if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, dont lift on an empty stomach. Also make sure you are drinking water, and that your BP is in check.

Try sipping on some gatorade while working out instead of water. Could be low cals/sodium. I usually eat a meal ~30 mins before the gym also.

if your piss is a yellowish color, then this indicates that you are dehydrated, and need to be drinking more fluids during the day.
also, what are you eating? could be that you are not eating enough during the day before your workouts

that is 100% true. eating and drinking water 30-60 min before a workout helped me and my brother out a whole lotIlluminati said:

I notice i fatigue towards the end of my workouts when I don't have a small meal before the gym.. The dizziness can be from blood being flushed to you head when using heavy weight (i get it on decline bench and bent over rows)

more than likely low blood sugars. i eat some oats 45 mins before i workout and i'm ok. the days i haven't eaten, i get trashed towards the end of a long workout. EDIT: keep drinking lots of water too... it helps

But I understand what you say, its annoying.
LOL i was thinking the same thing about my Monday Morning Leg workout too.
Nothing make you wanna violently throwup more than Squats and DeadLifts on a Monday Morning...

This is my own personal experiences-and age and female/male does not matter. Although I was constantly told I would outgrow this by the time I reached my age I am now. Like a few other people said low blood sugar-but I have to eat protein-at the very least the protein has to be much higher then the carbs. As far as rice, pasta and bread or oats being energy foods, that certainly does not apply to me. If I eat only that, I will pass out-in the first thirty secs. Also, if I drink sodas that are not diet sodas, I will get that same weak feeling. I carry protein powder, sunflower seeds, almonds with me. As much as I want to, I cannot do a vegetarian diet-I tried. Don;t work for me. My sister would fuss and told me that salads and smoothies were not real food. Not what I wanted to hear, but she came out to be so right. Another problem I have is low blood count and low blood pressure. I think this is common in very active people of all ages. I have to take an iron supplement-i take it every three or four days-when I remember.
