Has anyone ever almost passed out doing cling and press?

[unforgiven]

The last two workouts that I've done deadlifts then cling and presses. Well, on the cling and press as I pushed it overhead I've almost blackedout. Anyone ever heard of this before?

LMAO! I was about to say the same thing.


And, I think it's quite possible to do so. I've gotten really dizzy everytime I do leg presses, squats and lunges. I've stood up from the leg press machine and almost fallen over many a time.
I'm pretty sure it's b/c the quads and hamstrings are such large muscle groups that when blood is rushed to these areas for oxydizing that your brain gets the short end of the stick (so to speak). When you're doing power-cleans or any total body movement, I'm sure the effect is much greater.

When I used to do heavy leg presses for high reps, I'd nearly pass out at the end of almost every set. Puked a time or two as well.

Happened regularily when I did the Cybergenics leg workout too (a drop set of squats to both positive and negative failure, supersetted with plyometric leaps til failure, supersetted with bodyweight sissy squats til failure, then finally flexing the quads as hard as possible for 30 seconds).

Holey Ass batman!!!! I havent heard the word Cybergenics, for years.
yeah I do this alot mostly with legs and when I sprint in paintball then start yelling immediately after.

Whenever I do legs decently I feel like I'm gonna pass out or puke.

On heavy leg days I'm finding it's helpful to have a bowl of oats about 45 min. to an hour before training, it seems to lessen the negative sides of training legs hard and gives me enough energy to complete the session without feeling wiped out afterwards. It's certainly not the typical eating/training pattern, but it works for me. I'm also finding I can get through a late afternoon or early evening cardio session on the stair master better with the oats. Even though my stomach is full and uncomfortable at first, that quickly goes away as I start training and I get a much more solid session than if I'd have abstained from eating for 2 hrs.

I don't know how this will affect growth as I've just discovered this for myself in terms of endurance and simply feeling ok on heavier days. Right now I'm trying to lean down some so growth is not a major priority for me right now.
