How To Reduce Crop Dusting

Its time for your weekly run: you have your new outfit and your shoes are perfectly laced. The weather is perfect and you begin your run and within 3 minutes of your run, you get the bubble guts…Why is this happening when you emptied the tank prior to your perfect run?

This tends to happen to everyone during some high intense training. It’s all fine and dandy until you start running in groups that may not appreciate the backlash.

So what is causing you to feel somewhat bloated with air? If you practice deep breathing during your training this could be your root cause. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing but all that air you’re sucking into your lunges to feed your muscles sometimes get trapped in your digestive track. In this particular case, there’s only one direction it wants to blow…I mean go.

Working out on a normal basis also tends to keep you regular, meaning you are hitting the toilet more and more. Since you are healthier, things are moving faster such as your digestive system. Aerobic exercise expedites the process of material moving in and around your body thus causing you to engage your core a lot more which leads to crop dusting everyone around you. Damn that sexy runner stank!

There is no getting around this tissue….I mean issue. Athletes such as yourself are bound to rip one on the track. To reduce the effects stay away from certain foods before your run like veggies and wheat. I’m not saying don’t eat them! Don’t get it twisted cause you need these food items but you don’t need them before your sweat session. Try breathing techniques to reduce the chances of oxygen getting trapped in your digestion. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. This is ideal for longer runs.

I hope this saves on the embarrassment. If you know someone who does this from time to time, try staying ahead of the pack to avoid eating their dust.
