I know that this may seem like an obvious answer (get in better shape, eat better, stay hydrated), but I'm having a really hard time with this. I understand that the nausea is normal, but the light headedness and dizziness is starting to scare me. I stay plenty hydrated and make sure to eat a healthy meal with enough carbs to keep up the energy. Unfortunately, my coach doesn't quite understand. Maybe I'm over reacting, but I'm afraid I'm going to get hurt or pass out......or even hurt someone else from being light headed during a routine. I'm on a college team so I don't have Mom or Dad to turn to on this one. I have the mental ability to push myself, but I want to be careful......since I'm getting older. Any advice? I'm afraid of passing out, and I don't feel that my coach has the proper medical training if anything were to happen.....she's the type to see a head injury and say "well, you're talking so you must be completely fine, keep practicing!" Sorry for the long rant, I just want to be able to keep up without feeling dizzy, nauseous, and unsafe if something were to happen to me. I know a lot of people don't read this thread so I'm bummed to be a newbie.
Thank you for reading my long drawn out explanation and I hope I can get some help on this.....even though I know it sounds like an easy fix!!!!
