How long after dinner can I do some proper exercise?

Nowadays, many female friends do not have time to exercise in their daily lives, which causes their physical fitness to become worse and worse. In addition, during the day, they may need to sit in front of the computer for a long time or sit on the computer frequently, which also causes a lot of fat on their abdomen. Therefore, they often choose to do some simple exercises after meals. So how long after a meal can you exercise?

If you start doing strenuous exercise during this period, your body's priorities will change in favor of blood flow to the muscles; this also happens when the body is under stress, setting off a chain reaction that prepares the body for strenuous exercise (the fight or flight response). The worst case scenario usually occurs when you swim shortly after a meal, because at this time the blood not only needs to supply the muscles and digestive system at the same time, it also needs to keep the body in the water at a certain temperature. Therefore, the most conservative result is: insufficient blood supply to the muscles leads to cramps, and you can't swim temporarily!

The length of the interval between a meal and exercise largely depends on the type of meal and the amount consumed. Other determining factors include age, physical condition, and exercise intensity.

If you have a large meal before exercise, and most of it is high in protein and fat, the interval should be more than two hours; if the meal is small and mainly carbohydrates, the interval can be shortened to 30 minutes to 1 hour. It's best to make any changes gradually, but if any muscular or digestive problems occur, pause.
