How can I workout in the morning without getting nauseous?!
Question: Everytime I try to workout in the morning I feel sick. I want to do it in a short time frame, so I dont want to eat before I start. I still feel sick though while I am working out, and dont feel like Im getting a good workout.
Answers:
if you are waking up earlier then you ever have to workout, you may just not be used to it yet. if you have been at it for a while already (months) then it could be your diet. if you eat late keep it clean (low fat ,low sugar, low carb). make sure you drink plenty of water before, during and after your workouts. also consider the fact some people just arent made for morning workouts.i'm not, i get a better workout, physically and mentally, in the later part of the day. there are benefits to a.m. workouts, but do whats best for you to reach your goals

Are you eating first? If not, start. If you are, make sure you are not eating anything too acidic like apples or yogurt.
I know you said you don't want to eat before you work out. try eating a half of a banana. It will be enough to keep you from feeling sick and you need the extra potassium if you work out regularly.
You need to eat before exercise(at least a light meal). Your body has been fasting all night and then when you exercise you drop your glucose levels even further causing the hypoglycemic reaction you are experiencing.
I agree with the others, eat a little before you exercise. What kind of exercise are you doing? Depending on what it is it could be bringing on motion sickness. If doing sit ups etc then make sure to pick a spot on the wall or ceiling and keep your eyes on it instead of making yourself dizzy by letting your eyes roll around. If on the treadmill sometimes you can also get dizzy as your mind cannot understand how your scenery is not changing even though you are running. If this is the case get off the treadmill and head out to the park. It will even work your muscles harder and be a better workout.
Good Luck with it!
Your blood sugar is low and that is making you nauseous, and not letting you workout as hard as you could if you ate at least a little something before your workout. If you really don't want to eat, try drinking a sports drink, like Gatorade. You'll get at least some calories in your system. They are also made to be easily digested.
