When can i exercise after having blood drawn?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
You can exercise same day, just don't lift, pull, stretch or bend arm that blood was drawn from. Wait at least 24 hours and keep arm area clean.

When you feel ready. Avoid any trauma to the site of puncture and wait about four hours to make sure the site of puncture has been sealed by platelets.
