Not sure if this question has been done on here before, if it has then I guess this thread will die and go away and that's cool too.
Most people are saying that the fact that you have to wait 30 minutes after eating to swim is an old wive's tale and it's not true. Well me personally, I get terrible cramps if I don't wait. I was just wondering if anybody else found the tale to be true and get cramps and how many people can eat and then immediately swim with no adverse effects.
There's a typo in the poll...it's *has, not is
I've never gotten cramps from swimming right after eating, but yeah, it can cause lots of belching, gas and other things that just aren't pleasant during a workout. This is really only after eating a big meal. I'm sure you could eat a snack immediately before or during a workout and not be adversely affected.
