Do You Eat More When You Work Out?
Categories: Your Turn, Fitness
When you burn a bunch of calories during a good workout, it's only natural for your body to want to compensate by consuming more, which is why many of us celebrate a good session with a hearty meal. Well, either that or we're using our hard work as an excuse to treat ourselves.
Either way, bad behavior can catch up with you even if you're keeping up a regular fitness regime, as Jennifer pointed out when she asked the question, "Is marathon training making you fat?"
What about you? Do you tend to eat more when you're working out regularly? If so, do you do it because you're physically hungrier or because you feel like you're "allowed" to? Is it keeping you from losing weight?
Last week, we asked you if you work out in the rain. Here's what you had to say:
- 32 percent said yes -- you're too determined to let a bit of rain stop you.
- 30 percent said there's no reason to -- your gym is indoors.
- 22 percent said maybe, as long as it was safe and comfortable
- 16 percent said no way -- it's just not worth it.
