I keep thinking about asking this, but always forget. Since getting back in the pool when I can due to my work, surgeries, and just life...a couple years ago I noticed I burp a lot during my minute of rest and sometimes during a lap.
Does this happen to anyone else?
btw - I was finally able to get back up to 1800 yards during my lap swim a couple weeks ago 😄🏊*♀️
I bet that's it. Whey causes stomach issues wiht a lot of people, but it is usually gas, rather than burping. That said......is there a reason you are drinking it before, rather than after, your workout? They are often referred to as "recovery" drinks, as your muscles need protein to help recover after a workout. Personally, I each greek yogurt with granola about 30 minutes before I swim.
The only reason is drink the protein shake (which is just water and the sugar free mix) is because I was using it as a pre workout. I don’t eat dairy or meat. So my protein levels were not enough to surpass my goal of 1800 yards like I did today with 1950 yards!!
I suppose I can try to not drink it tomorrow and see how it goes and if I have the natural strength to make it thru my swim?
