My body was tingling and my hands were jittery after my workout this morning... did I do something wrong? I kept losing my balance too for about 10 minutes after my workout.

When was the last time you ate something, food I mean?

[somebodyelse Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close somebodyelse]

well I worked out before I ate this morning. I tend to work out then eat a few hours later. hasn't happened before though.

Blood Pressure? in what direction? I've had moderately high BP... it onset over the last 4 years of college, the stress it put me under.

interesting.

Either low blood sugar or you took too much pre-workout supplements.

You need to sit down and assess the situation.

Prior to your wokout........

Food, Coffee, Meds, Supplements, Lack of Sleep, Stress etc. prior to the workout ???

If you cannot sit down and assess what may have caused the tingling hands and jitters then go see your doctor!

Im also guessing your supps /pre-workout products.You taking Beta alanine?

[somebodyelse Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close somebodyelse]

nope. I refuse to take any supplements or any modifiers. I'm just working out to build endurance and strength to my body's natural capabilities.

I hadn't eaten breakfast before hand. It was a pretty intense workout for me, but not so much that i'd be losing my balance and having the jitters... I haven't worked out since, so I can't say yet. I will try again tomorrow.

Sorry for the late get back...

Went normal today. Didn't feel weird at all. I'll continue to monitor just incase it was a case of over doing it. Trained really hard on the Elliptical for my cardio. Big distances ad varying but all high levels of intensity. and did full body weight lifting. so I may have just over done it.

try eating within the hour of having finished your workout. Doesn't have to be huge, just something.

I get a tingling feeling in my forearms at night after a heavy pullup day. I'm pretty sure it was due to muscle tightness.
I started using a hard ball to massage my forearms and you know what? Hasn't tingled since.
Also was able to do 15 pullups
