Guest guest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 google D-Ribose and L-Glutamine. D-Ribose especially is good if you take it before workouts...gives you a whole lotta energy. WS P.S : what did you eat before your workout? wrote: I barely even worked out....did some arm weights and a pilates bum video and now I'm all shaky. I just drank some magnesium but it's not really helping. What can I do and what does this mean? --------------------------------- Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I had some chocolate, but it seems to always happen. Although I think the chocolate made it worse.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Pre-workout and post-workout nutrition is very important for many reasons. your blood sugar is probably going nuts and making you jittery. first are you drinking plenty of water? if not drink up, you need to be well hydrated, not drinking enough water will make you feel sick and shaky as well. Fuel up before a workout, about an hour or so before you exercise have about 24 -30 grams of protein,such as whey protein powder, add a good carb source like berries , blend it up and drink. for postwork fuel another protein shake is a fast way to get nutrients to your muscles. if you have food within a 30 minute time frame after a workout that will give you energy for the next time you exercise. stop eating the chocolate before exercise, it may be spiking your blood sugar and that could also be causing the jitters. sherielle I > barely even worked out....did some arm weights and a pilates bum > > video and now I'm all shaky.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I agree with Cherie! I remember, back in the day, about 6 months ago when my adrenals started their descent and I recall getting really BEAT and lightheaded after working out and feeling like I was going to fall over. I thought I had low blood sugar. Now, 6 months later, witha diagnosis of adrenal fatigue and hypo, I am totally incapacitated. I have not worked out in 4 months. I can walk about 25 minutes and that is IT. I realized I needed to rest my body in order to recuperate my adrenals. I am just now starting treatment so I'm hoping to add walks back into my schedule, but slowly, as I heal. I used to be active - mountain biked, rock climbed, snowboarded, yoga - and now - at 30, can do none of it. It is depressing, but I PRAY and hope that all will heal with time. Maybe your body is telling you to slow down too. > > If your adrenals are really shot the exercise may just be too much right > now. It does put stress on your adrenal glands when you exercise. > Personally, I'm not at a point wehre I can exercise at all. Just normal > activities exhaust me.
