Can i do exercise without pooping - #28662
I am really confused and kinda worried about what’s going on with my body. So, I started a new exercise routine a few weeks back, and honestly, I feel great, but there’s this thing that’s bugging me. Can I do exercise without pooping? Like, I thought working out would help get things moving, right? But lately, I haven’t been able to go as much. I usually have a regular morning routine, but now it’s like, nothing. I mean I still do my cardio and weights, but now I feel all bloated and yucky. I even tried drinking more water and added fiber to my diet, thinking that might help me poop. But then, I also read somewhere that exercising can sometimes affect bowel movements? Like, can I really do exercise without pooping? My friend who’s a trainer says it’s normal, but I’m really starting to worry. Should I maybe just take a break from my workouts, or is there some sort of exercise I should be focusing on that could help me, you know, poop more? Ugh, it’s frustrating!
