Question

question 15 of 20
how long should you wait before exercising after you eat?
a. 15 minutes
b. 45 minutes
c. 60 - 90 minutes
d. 30 minutes

Explanation:

After eating, the body needs time to digest food. A light meal may require 60 minutes, while a larger, more complex meal may need up to 90 minutes. This allows the stomach to empty partially and reduces the risk of discomfort (such as cramps) during exercise. Options A (15 minutes) and D (30 minutes) are too short as digestion has barely started. Option B (45 minutes) may be insufficient for proper digestion, especially for larger meals. 60 - 90 minutes is a commonly recommended time frame for digestion before exercising.

Answer:

C. 60 - 90 minutes
