You know that pain in your lower stomach you get after exercise if you're unfit like me :eek: what is that caused by and how can I stop it from happening?

idk what its caused by, but depending on the side the stitch is on, bend over on that side and take about 5 deep breaths.

no no, i know lactic acid buildup is due to anaerobic respiration, i thought that a side stitch was completely different, but i just read some sites, and yes anaerobic respiration is another reason why u get a side stitch, my bad :eek:

but its also got something to do with the liver too.

i was told by a physio that i know that its due to the diaphram being pushed up into the ribs or something like that.

A way to stop it he said was to breathe using your stomach sounds weird i know, a little to hard to explain online

Lactic acid does not exist as an acid in the body
Lactate does not cause muscle fatigue
Muscle never operates anaerobically

Lactic acid, myths,legends and reality - the ABC - A Time-to-Run - Exercise Physiology scientific aspects of various topics that interest runners

Our P.E teacher said it's caused by drinking too much water immediately before you exercise. I think it might also be caused by dehydration;

Stitches are caused by an evil guy with a needle. I know cause I once fell off my bike and hit my head.
