Is this a good thing? It's the second time it has happened to me. last summer I tried to do the sand dunes (in LA... if you've ever heard of it, just this huge wall of sand that people walk or run up and down)...

My friend was training for college basketball, so we were working out together a lot last summer, and went to the sand dunes. Normally people just walk up. But we sprinted full speed halfway and then back down. I made it 4 times, and then I was totally immobilized, and threw up after.

Today, I just played basketball for nearly 8 hours, when I got home I couldn't move. I had to get out of the shower because I couldn't support my own weight, and I've been on the couch, and just got up to throw up.

is it a good thing to do exercise to the point where you have to throw up? sometimes when I'm doing something I just lose track of the world and get consumed by the activity, and I guess this is the result :p .

My coach always said if we lost we had to run laps until we had projectile vomit coming from our mouths.

Sure it's good, especially if you're throwing up blood. Play hard, push your limits. If you don't die you haven't played enough.

Do not exercise for eight hours. This is the wrong choice.

You might be able to get away with it if you eat and stay hydrated.

I'm not an expert on sports medicine or anything like that but throwing up will dehydrate the body, which is especially bad if you're doing an activity such as running in the summer heat. Probably the best solution is to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water well in advance before you start exercising, though the only thing I can say about fixing the part where you actually throw up is "take 5."

Definitely what I was thinking. The only thing that makes sense to me is if you aren't keeping well hydrated. Once when I was caddying on a hot day I didn't drink enough and threw up in front of the country club patrons lol

the best workout is one where you are both tired and sore, but not totally impaired and unable to function/about to throw up. You want to feel it in your muscles when you try to do normal activities that involve the exercised muscles, but pushing yourself until puking is unwise in most circumstances.

I've thrown up while playing in games, but never while exercising. I'd say that throwing up is probably pushing yourself a little too far.

But also...

Pain is weakness leaving the body. Remember that now.

Naw man it just means your hardcore! But seriously, if that happens just drink some more water and rest a little bit and you'll be fine.

I personally don't think throwing up is pushing yourself too far, some people are much more immune to throwing up. Me for example, no matter how hard i excercise i can't throw up unless i decided to run a marathon 2 mins after eating. My friends on the other hand is different.

i threw up after doing a running race once, not very pleasant, and i came in came second to a guy in the last 50 meters. last time i ran a race without training first. if i were you, i'd try not to exert myself to that extent, especially just in training. throwing up means your body is under excessive strain.
How's the weather down there?

if you hurled its because you didnt eat right and your body hasn't absorbed well what you ate....not cause you cant exercise.. you have to get carbs and less fat.. the only time i have vomited after running or during was cause I ate a cheese sandwich before running laps on the rugby field... and i have run 15km and fast 3k runs while training.. i usually get tired before i puke and i dont have a very strong
try running in a controlled enviroment to see if its because of something else..
go to a treadmill and start running eat anything you want... another day you eat smaller or differently like a plate of pasta instead of a steak and run again the same miles and compare...

if you do vomit try to rehidrate and thats about it.. just shrug it off.. and keep on running

Just make sure to stay hydrated and eat well after you throw up, you should be fine. Try to eat more carbs.

I'm a cross country runner btw
always tired -_-

I know some people who would throw up after long runs or races even though they were in shape. Always seemed weird.

Still, it's generally not a good sign; you are probably either dehydrated or pushing yourself much harder than your body is used to.

it's not good.. not good at all. I do that a lot. I puke after running for like 30+ minutes straight. It feels great, but not good for your body :/

For those who say it's bad (especially those who imply it's really bad): what is your reasoning?

The hydration element is obvious, but that can be fixed by...hydrating. Obviously excessive vomiting can result in esophageal damage but this is on the order of bulimia frequency (which I doubt will happen if from exercise..). So, what else is there?

Ultra intense exercise taken to extremes has been known in rare incidences to result in rhabdomyolysis, so try not to get too crazy, but aside from that I think OP is fine. My understanding is nausea/vomiting commonly accompanies pretty intense exercise, so I guess as others have said stay hydrated and such.
