How long you should wait after a meal to workout?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Workout after eating: I recommend waiting for 2 hours after a large meal before exercising vigorously. It takes that long for the stomach to empty and for circulation of blood supply, which was diverted away from muscles and directed toward the digestive tract, to return to normal. This is why our mothers told us not to go swimming right after a meal.
