Okay, I'm actually not kidding with this one. Latley, I have been starving ALL the time. My muscles have been really tired in workout, too. I'm certainly not overtraining - I make it 5 days/week usually, sometimes a 6th on my own, and lately it's been 4 or 5. And we aren't cranking out the yards like crazy either.
I think either something is missing from my diet or I'm just not eating enough ... my guess is it's the former. Any thoughts? I eat a fair amount of protein. I constantly amaze people with just how much I do eat so I don't think it's that ...
As for food and being hungry... swimming makes me a LOT more hungry than running ever did. I eat after a long run, race, or track workout b/c I've heard one should get something by way of recovery, but after swimming, I feel FAMISHED and HAVE to have something.
And I definitely don't make 3k yards 4-5x/wk. I do run about 4-5 days/wk and swim maybe 3-4 days/wk.
Gotta go now... lunch time!
