When do you get stomach cramps?

I make it a rule not to swim within 2 hours of having a meal so that I don't have to worry about stomach cramps. But yesterday, I went swimming five hours after having a meal and still had stomach pain after doing twenty laps. Are there known causes for stomach cramp(pain) even when the stomach is empty?

  • Yeah, I'm not really sure what a stomach cramp is. Is it indigestion? I get that once in a while from eating something right before working out, but I've never had anything I'd describe as an actual stomach cramp. If it's more of a "stitch in your side" I would think that has nothing to do with your digestive system.
