Twice this week! Once after Monday's deadlifts, and just a half hour ago from squats and leg presses. fueled up on two gatorades and a chicken breast right after.
I suspect that it's due to the blood being pulled into a large muscle, thus less blood in the head and stomach. But, why does this make you puke?
I think it's more pronounce the larger you legs are, thus those with large quads (especially disproportionately large quads-like me) are more prone to nausea. I do squats to absolute failure, concentrating on the movement and contraction, when I am more concentrated I am more prone to puking.
Q: you that have not puked, do you have big quads?
Q: you that have not puked, do you squat?
Never from working out, I make sure to always to do legs on an empty stomach. However, I did puke my f'n brains out once or ten times after about 15 tequilla shots, and a few more times after mixing liquors, and at least 10 times after visiting with my good buddies Jack Daniels and Jim Beam, and a couple of times.....
