Guys,
This last week I have been getting stitch really badly in the right side of my stomach when running and its always after the warm up and taking in water.
My routine is I start with 15 minutes on the rowing machine on a high level as a warmup (although I feel knackered at the end of it
ops: ) I then have a cup of water because Im sweating like mad and my mouth is dry... Now im not chugging down gallons of water during the rest period which is only 2 minutes long I have a small cup of water from the dispenser and take it in slowly over the two minute break. I then run on the treadmill for whichever distance im doing on that day. Now its when im getting into about 3 to 4 minutes that the stitch becomes really painfull and I have to slow down to a walk to catch my breath and let the stitch die off.
Just wondering if its the amount of water im taking on or what, as I know Im supposed to stay hydrated during exercise. I drink around 3 - 4 litres of water a day anyway as I dont drink tea or coffee or fizzy drinks but its this tiny amount during a session that has started to hinder me. It has never happended before so I dont get why its happening now :evil:
