BroomzK Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 It seems that everytime i workout(lift weights and maybe some cardio.....maybe) that i always yawn, i always go with a partner because working out alone is the most boring thing, and a lot of the time as im spotting them or just waiting ill yawn, and sometimes i'll get the temptation too as i am actually lifting. Has anyone else had this problem? Any solutions? BTW im drinking what i think is plenty of water, like 16ozs every 30 minutes or so, and my sessions usually last 45min-an hour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BranHorse Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Couple things could cause this. 1. Nervous yawner. So you may get anxious and yawn. Like a nervous cough. 2. Stomach ache. I yawn all the time because of my stomach. It hurts in haves so when it hits I often yawn to avoid looking stupid. 3. You don't know how to breath when lifting and are needing more when you are at rest 4. U sleepy head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaolin Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Theory ^ How is this a theory. It was scientifically proven. Yawning happens when you're tired or you need more oxygen in your lung. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroomzK Posted August 22, 2013 Author Share Posted August 22, 2013 Yeah I've heard about the lack of oxygen, i think it had to do with a lot of times before when i used to work out, I was still smoking cigarettes, and maybe i just straight up didn't have the cardio to work out at quite the rate that i was efficiently enough.

Jerm Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 How is this a theory. It was scientifically proven. Yawning happens when you're tired or you need more oxygen in your lung. There have also been tests in which scientists have introduced different gasses into the air or reduced the oxygen in the room in which the patient sits with little to no effect. It's still not 100% on what causes a person to yawn. I have not done a whole lot of research in the way of yawning... But just a little tiddy I heard on the radio.

Chimmy_Changa Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Yawning is not when you lack oxygen, animals yawn and its a sign to get ready to use your body, thats why sometimes when you yawn you stretch. It's just your body getting ready to use its muscles by taking in extra air. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bort Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 This is the real scientific reason people yawn. I tried to put the youtube link to start at seconds. If it doesn't work, just fast-forward to 0:36 seconds. TL;DR: yawning doesn't have to do with oxygen; it has to do with: The temperature of your brain, or You saw someone else yawn, or You were thinking about yawning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captaincracker Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Just make sure you are breathing right when you lift. Especially when you bench or do anything where you are laying on your back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirt Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Proper breathing is a MUST. Studies have shown that holding your breath while lifting (which many of us are guilty of) puts a ton of pressure on your eyeballs and can actually result in a much higher risk of glaucoma as you get older. As far as the yawning goes, I dunno. I will say sleep is probably the most overlooked aspect of fitness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
