Some people may be late to eat, very anxious, just put down the dishes and chopsticks and join the large troops. In fact, just after eating and starting to exercise, it is likely that the gain is not worth the loss. The food in the stomach and intestines has not yet been digested, and it is immediately followed by exercise, which is easy to hinder gastrointestinal digestion and affect intestinal health. It is best to wait for the food to be digested after the meal, and then exercise, so that there is no delay.
