    You get that "heavy" feeling when you exercise with a full stomach because digestion is hard! It takes a lot of energy to break down the food before you can use the energy. So when you put all of your energy into exercising, all that food just sits in your stomach. It'll sit there until you vomit or stop exercising.

    My swims usually happen in the morning so I start with cold lemon water followed by celery juice. I take a smoothie made with either orange juice or pomegranate juice base and frozen berry mix and bananas. I sip a little before getting in the water and I sip a bit more between sets if I feel hungry but normally I don't. I finish the drink once practice is done. I have regular food after that. All good.

    Banana is my fave pre swim food but generally I swim first thing in the morning in a fasted state. I then continue to fast after my swim to stay on my fasting routine. I personally have tried eating before and fasting before my swim and have tracked my progress and don't see or feel and difference. Post swim my go to is something protein/whole food based with a decent macro split. Refrigerator oats, smoothie, etc.

    I grew up swimming (1980's) and was so very hungry after the pool & ended up in a weight battle to this day. Late May I changed to a very low carb (40 total grams , high protein (120gr), moderate fat and I function so much better. Different methods for different bodies, turns out carbs of all sort generate a vicious hunger drive in me. Only took until the age of 51 to figure myself out. Also: only returned to the water 2 months ago after a 10yr break, what a quality of life improvment!!! Pulling for everyone to hold out through the latest round of pool closures. Thanks for all the helpful inspiring content here & on FB.

    I am doing intermittent fasting low carb. I am not a pro, just training in the pool every day 1hr, pretty intensive, 2-3 times a week 1hr gym, 4-5 times a week stretch/yoga routine in the AM. I eat something like eggs or nuts about an hr before I go to the pool. The pool for me is daily 1-2pm, I drink a plenty while in the pool. When I get back home, I prepare food (I'm vegetarian, so anything from gigantic salad to steamed vegetables, curd, eggs, a block of cheese, always with vegetables and greens) and I eat around 4:30/5pm and if I don't finish the plate, I'll finish up later, like 7 or 8pm and that's it until next day c.a. 11am.
    My personal guilty pleasure is curry with a lemon rice side dish as well as chocolate. Luckily, cooking curry from scratch is quite a project, and for chocolate guilty pleasure I found one that is with stevia so almost no sugar in it, low carb, and calorie count, and I found a local variety of glazed curd snacks that are extremely filling, relatively low carb, and low calorie. I'm slowly getting rid of stagnant lbs.

      @@str8shooter-talk116 encouraging to hear! Congrats! I was on a low carb/keto plus intermittent fasting also when I ramped up the workouts with what I call "nightmare mode" which was twice a day workout in the pool 5-6 days a week, plus gym (there were winter swimming races coming up but got canceled due to COVID). The OMAD and low carb/ keto worked really well, I was surprised. I actually had energy for some projects after the PM swim, which was insane. The standard is that swimmers eat everything that moves and that does not, 10 times a day. Apparently, OMAD and low carb work as well if not better!

    In laymen terms. Your body burns a sht ton of calories when swimming. Calculate how much and consume about 50 grams of carbs per day and be on a deficit if you want to cut/lean.
    It's not that hard, especially if you're drinking lots of water too. It suppresses hunger.
    You're welcome. 😊😊

    At the pool I continue with sugar water and a little orange 🍊 juice with water.
    After practice if it was a hard workout I'll have a 2-3 banana smoothie with almond milk and, you guessed it, sugar.
    I sip my drink at the pool which keeps me from the crash he keeps talking about.

The corn goes through a patented cooking process that changes the structure of the corn and elongates the molecule to make it a longer lasting, complex carbohydrate.
