Tag: Not hungry after workout

Research has shown that the traditional 30-minute 'anabolic window' for post-workout nutrition is a myth for most people, making the decision of whether you should eat if you're not hungry after working out more flexible than previously thought. Your body's response is highly dependent on individual factors, exercise intensity, and pre-workout fueling status.

Intense exercise can temporarily suppress appetite by altering hunger hormones like ghrelin. So, should you eat after a workout if you are not hungry? The answer depends on your training goals and intensity.
