Red face

LEX · Apr 28, 2005

you guys have a problem with your face being red while on. If I go off for a while my face doesnt get red but on the time while Im on looks like I been in the sun , any ideas?

Your face gets red do to increased blood pressure, if your face is red even when your not working out. You may want to get it checked. Any wal-mart has a BP machine.

If you can get your arm into the machine - hahaha

If your arm does fit in the machine (I'm assuming it's on the "large" size), the reading will not be accurate (probably on the high side), have it checked by someone who'll use a "large" cuff. Plenty of places to get it done free. I either go the a Wellness Center (through work) or done at local Fire Dept by paramedics.

bp is always pretty decent, consistant cardio all the time and drinking flax oil and extra omega 3s. Thanks xecell I guess Im at the age where the bp starts going lol. St. I was thinking maybe increased hemocrit , just really tired of it, gonna go see a dermo doc, maybe he can get rid of the acne too, 33 and still breaking out LOL
thanks for the input guys.

Holding your breath will also make your face red. Have you been breathing lately?

(I'm in one of my moods. Once again, my appologies.)

Overdosing on niacin gave my face a red flush. If you're taking a lot more
B-Complex while on then cut the amount of the vitamin. Most people
overdose on vitamins.

I'm curious to know what type of gear your on and the brand. I recently heard of some bro's on another board complaining about there faces turning bright red while on. What is interesting is that they were all using the same ug brand gear.

Sometimes us Asians get red-faced from drinking too much alcohol - so high BA content (j/k)

think we all have had a red face from drinkin too much.

gear type, this has been going on for the last ten years and many different brands , stacks and amounts. That would be an interesting coorelation though.
