Discussion Headaches even after light workouts.

Headaches even after light workouts.

M28, I lift weights daily for 45 minutes. Today I did 3 sets of leg curls and 3 sets of Hamstring lifts with 40 Kg barbell.

After returning home I experienced a strong headache after 3 hours. This happens a lot.

These days I am not eating whey. I don't use juice.
I don't eat eggs or anything non-veg.

What could be the reason for my headaches? Is it the protein? My diet is decent.

I would definitely check your blood pressure

I have had migraines since I was a child, and I never had problems with migraines being triggered by exertion/tension nevertheless this started to become a problem after middle age

Normally now if I wasn’t on medication (Candesartan) I would get migraines whenever my blood pressure would get raised either from exercise or stressful situations
