Why You're Hungry After a Workout


Burning of calories:


Running is a vigorous form of exercise where you burn a lot of calories. Burning of calories is co-related to feeling hungry. You burn more calories in a run than walking on a treadmill.

You’re not eating enough:


People who feel hungry after a run are usually the ones who are dieting. The calories in your body are already in a deficit, therefore, this added calorie burn after a run can stimulate your hunger.

You’re dehydrated:


People who do this end up stuffing themselves and remain dehydrated. Even the practice of having water to curb food hunger is wrong. Learn to differentiate between your thirst for water and food hunger.

What to do about it

Drink more water:

The easiest fix for runner hunger is to make sure you’re hydrated before you set out and then drink a bottle of water afterwards.

Eat right after your run:

Try to plan a meal within a few hours of training, so you don’t finish your run feeling ravenously hungry, a small snack with a little bit of protein within an hour or two of training.
