i yawn when i’m nervous, or really, really amped up.
in Army Airborne school i was yawning when i was on the bird for my first jump…everyone was pretty much freaked out by that, to include the instructors.

WTF is this about? Yesterday I was at the end of my workout, I was in the middle of supersetting lunges and SL deadlifts and I just suddenly started yawning uncontrollably. And I don’t mean a sleepy yean or even a “shit this thread is boring” yeawn, I mean a proper face splitting gasping yawn. It went on for ages, I could keep it in while I was lifting but in my rest periods I looked like a right gimp.
Anyone had this happen to them? What’s going on?[/quote]
yawning is not only designed to let teachers know you are bored. its also designed to open up the lungs so you can get in more oxygen. late night, hard workout, yawning; your mind is telling the body its not getting enough oxygen and it needs to fight off sleep to finish the workout.
I yawn some workouts and it pisses me off. It’s a sucky feeling letting out a big yawn right before going for a DL PR. I was scared it was a sign of over training or something. I’ll settle for lack of oxygen…
