After reading all the blurb about low carb diets I have been dramatically reduced my intake and found to my surprise, my training has improved no end. I train 5 times a week quite intensively and often had what I thought were Hypnos so tended to bulk up on carbs before training.
This seemed to have the opposite affect with what I thought were hynpos coming on. I also experienced bloatedness during training which felt like air trapped in my chest. Even went to the docs about that as it really was affecting my training. He perscribed omeprazone once a day which had little impact.
Since reading the forum on low carbo and drastically reducing my intake of wholemeal bread , pasta, potatos, and rice. Not only has this feeling of bloated trapped air disappeared Im not having the feeling of Hypos during or after training.
Normally I train late afternoon so well after my lunch when my blood sugars have dropped to be low 7. Yesterday I had to train early almost immediately after food and I found the same bloatedness problems reoccurring. Now the question is do you think my higher BS was the cause of all the problems I described when I was bulking out on carbs before training.
I'm still working on my low carb diet and have found that my normal breakfast of oat porrage even cut back dramatically still sends my BS up to 11 after 2 hours so I really need to find an alternative.
