Is it okay to workout with GERD-like symptoms?

Rahul asked:


Hello, recently I was told I may have GERD, however, looking at my symptoms, I thought otherwise. Usually, GERD is accompanied by heartburn, but in my case, I rarely feel any kind of burning sensation anywhere in my stomach. The only symptoms I have that sound like GERD are that while working out I eventually vomit. The only way to prevent vomiting is to not eat ANYTHING for over 4 hours until my stomach is completely empty. Then if I work out I still get a gagging sensation occasionally, but other than that, I feel fine.

I workout with heavy weight and less reps. That probably increases abdominal pressure and increases reflux, which causes the nauseating feeling and causes me to vomit. I was told that one of my esophageal sphincters is loose, and is letting food back up.

Well, I have 2 questions.
1. How the heck can I strengthen that damn esophageal sphincter to be over with this retarded problem?
2. My summer goal was to put on lots of muscle mass. Is it safe to pursue it?
