Thread: Lift til you puke

damn close but never puked, from lifting.

I puked 3 times before from lifting. HIIT twice and one wicked leg day.

I've only puked once from lifting, but I've been close several times.

cardio is a whole diffrent story. training for a fight numerous times to over exertion.

No, thank GOD!

If I did, I think I would be too embarassed to return to the gym :o

Came pretty close but never did puke..probably a good thing.

Never even got close - I dont feel ill in that way when training. I've had the odd dizzy spell or struggled to get my breathing and heart rate down after heavy squats but thats about it -

Hell yeh I've done it.
Anybody who trains hard has.

i done it twice before, after heavy deadlifts, (well heavy for me anyway).

I puked a couple of times back when I was performing High Intensity Training.

....right.

Anybody who's trained hard has puked because of working out? Thats retarded.

I gotta say I dont agree that puking is a sign of training hard at all - this kinda falls into the same argument as "those who use belts and gloves are pussies!" and all that.

You dont have to have cut up shins to prove you deadlift properly and you dont need to bean up your lunch to show you've 'gone to the max'

I'd be interested in the PTs views but I would be concerned if people up and down the country were encouraged to lift until they throw up.

Anyone who has puked from training has pulled a danny.

I've come close a few times.

Worst was being hungover, and once during a soccer match after a monumental hangover I puked about 15 minutes into the first half. On the field. I got some shit for that. Everyone was taking shots at me afterwards, but I lasted the whole match.

I did not go in with the intentions to puke. It just happened. I did to much.

@ summer school football (freshman year of high school, nobody worked) there would be 5-10 off to the side puking. The best part is that the coaches didn't work us as hard as they do in season because they thought they were killing us, when really it was the alcohol/being hungover feeling that made them puke.

like i said i have gotten a bit natious lifting. when i used to train before a fight it would happen though. you do that much crap slammed together it happens.

When I first starting getting really into BB I had a day with our local pro...a legs day. After I told him the first time I got sick when I went to the bathroom, he laughed and said, "okay, we'll stop on the quads...next is hammys". I had done squats, presses, and extensions at this point with only 20 sec b/t each set.

After the working on the hammys he sent me back to super set more extensions with lying hamstring curs....I got a sick again. I don't really think all the intensity was necessary. I think he was getting a kick out of it. It earned me a couple reps points at the gym, but that was the last time I ever worked with him on legs.
