From the flow of this conversation, I'd ask the Personal Trainer in your gym ;)

I'm hoping by the wink that you're kidding, as personal trainers know fuck all about weights, beyond the basics

What do you know more than your average PT, oh wise one?

He has a point. Most Pt's are fucking useless.

Hence why most people you see at the gym are using machines.....

What kind of retard gym do you go to?

Everything that you all know is wrong and I can prove it with this;

Question and answer.

Party hands WOO

Ha. Good call :lol: :lol: :lol:

How do I get rid of nausea during/after working out?

i keep getting this recurring hamstring injury when playing football. i get to the point after a few weeks where it feels good, i run and kick and everything for a week or two leading up to my game & then come gameday all it takes is that little explosive sprint & it tears again (and by tear, it fxxxing explodes with pain).

my question is - what can i do cardio-wise on a fxxxed hamstring that will help me stay fit in my injured weeks, but also possibly help it out?

Exercise bike maybe? Keeps cardio up woot fully exerting your hamstring.

Have you seen a physio about it?

Your hamstring keeps blowing out with explosive movements, I'd be doing everything to Strengthen it before doing much cardio wise.

Start with some very light good mornings and Romanian deadlifts once a week, adding 2.5kg each session if you pull up ok.. And like Benjo said, a bit of easy biking won't hurt.

my mrs is a physio. she just keeps facepalming at how much i "rush" back. the most perplexing thing about it all is i sprint, kick, jump, everything i would in a game in the week or two leading up to returning to play. i try and do everything i would in a game, and it feels fine, but i must just push harder in a game and it gives way again.

we do a fair bit of strengthening exercises already on it - and my quads/hamstrings/glutes etc are all pretty strong as-is. will see how some cycling will go in keeping me fit, and maybe just give it a bit longer rest.

i've also decided that when i get back to full fitness i want to work on having amazing core strength. what are the best no-weights exercises for corework that i can do at home?

Then why are you asking us relative numpties? She did evaluate that it could be linked to your back and inner core?

Again, wouldn't she have suggested exercises for this and if so do you mean inner or outer core?

Leg raises, crunches, planks, heel taps, bicycles, hundreds are just a few that come to mind.

you don't get second opinions to compare/contrast on many things in life, do you?

I do something called a core stability challenge at athletics. It goes for 3 minutes.
0.00-1.00 Hold a regular plank, keeping core tight, belly button to spine etc.
1.00-1.15 Lift one arm up, whilst making sure your body isn't twisting so you can keep the core tight.
1.15-1,30 Lift other arm up.
1,30-1.45 Lift one foot up.
1.45-2.00 Lift other foot up.
2.00-2.15 Lift one arm up and the opposite leg I.e. right arm and left leg.
2.15-2.30 Do the same with the opposite arms.
2.30-3.00 Finish holding a regular plank.

If you master that, you can go to the next level, which is doing it with your feet on a fit ball. The key is basically keeping the core as tight as possible and making sure you aren't twisting your body when you've got an arm or foot up off the ground.

I see a physio (who does hardcore weights), a chiro (who does hardcore weights) and an osteo (who does a martial art).
My contrasting. Each to their own though.

That video just gave me yellow fever.

Add some hip thrusts to said Yellow Fever and you have yourself an awesome new dance cardio routine ;)

How long have you been 'working out'?
How long are the sessions?
Are you pushing too hard?
How long are the sessions?
Are you drinking water or an energy drink during workout?
Have you adequately eaten prior to workout, how long before and is it complex or simple foods?

I highly doubt its nausea. You are probably just not used to pushing yourself. You will get over it.

It can be for any exercise, and after any length of time.
No, I'm not pushing too hard - I could go harder, but this restricts me from wanting to carry on.
I drink plenty of water.
It doesn't seem to make a difference for what/when I eat.

Since it's probably worth noting, I do have problems with acid reflux which I am on medication for.





Ummmmmmm, no, I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about. But thanks anyway buddy.

:lol: :roll: :^o

Not sure if being condescending...
