Ok, so I asked opinions a few days ago because I was running out of energy when I was working out in the evening if I didn't eat a large amount of food during the day. Answer was "eat moar". Well fine, I gave that a shot. Eating about twice as many calories during the day (so like, closer to 1500 if you add together lunch and two snacks). For the past 4 workouts I haven't had any problems running out of energy, in fact in some cases I was able to squeeze out 1-2 more reps more, but the new thing is that I am drenched in sweat every time. Which is weird to me, I'm not normally a big sweater, if I work out hard I'll get damp, my shirt will get wet, but in these cases I am actually dripping the entire time.

Any advice? How are these two things related. And yes, I did use the internet. It seemed like sweating during your workout is considered a good thing, I'm just confused why upping the calories increased it.

because prior to the calorie increase you were lacking so much energy your body couldn't work its shit out, basically.

Well, I'll keep this up and see how it works out for me, I'm not really in danger of getting fat off of it since I have a reasonably good metabolism, I've just been trying to eat better which has led to eating less calories overall (whereas I've counted my calories before and found that I was easily eating 3000 in a given day from time to time but it was due to fast food and other crap food)

Any advice on ways to up my calories without having to stuff myself? I do have a protein shake after my workout, I could work one in during the day too I suppose, but there has to be decent food out there that are calorically dense and easy to digest (so that I don't have it sitting in my stomach like a stone 4 hours later like I've had from eating too much before) and without being bad for you.
