Anyone else have a problem focusing on days they workout?
For some reason post-workout:
-I steam like it's my job -I have an overall feeling like my head just isn't clear. -I'm not seeing all the angles. Simple [censored] that is purely mechanics, that I'm screwing up. -I call down a LOT more when I'm easily beat Can anyone explain why this might be happening? Note: This isn't the first or second time that this happens to me. It is almost as if its so bad that I need to choose between getting/staying in shape vs. poker |

When your body is tired, so is your mind.
Allow yourself a significant rest period before playing poker again. Work out in the morning, play poker in the evening if possible. However, I'm reminded of all the people I hear talking about how great and refreshed they feel after working out. Maybe you're pushing yourself a little too hard, or not keeping yourself hydrated enough. Pound back that Gatorade. Have a Red Bull or two. I don't know what your diet is like, but give that a look over. Are you getting enough of the things you need to keep you going during/after your workout? These are all factors that could be contributing to this, so try to look over some things and see if you can make any changes to improve your post workout mindset. If you can't do anything, then simply avoid playing poker after a workout. No sense in losing money. Find a way to balance the two. |

It's the opposite for me. What kind of workouts are you doing? If you push yourself to the point of exhaustion, that can't be good for your game. Are you trying to lose weight?

Now even though you criticized my post without lending much content as to why it was 'crappy' I find this post compelling and I'm not kidding.
I ran into the exact same thing. I started giving up a workout here or there for Poker to 'fit it in'. In the end I was down to working out just once a week on Saturday. Did it help - hell I'm not sure, but I gotta think that if you can balance it -- you are golden -- if you succumb to the trade-off in poker's favor -- you're losing... B+ on your post bro... |

Cut out the 'roids. Rage is never good for the poker.

well generally this could be caused by fatigue. Another reason is your food intake could be poor and affecting how your body feels postworkout.
I compete in bodybuilding shows and feel great to play cards after the gym, if u need help with diet or want to talk bout ur workout just let me kno in a PM or something. |

Itīs the opposite for me too. Talk to a trainer in your gym about this, training should help you relax, not put you on tilt.
