Is this a sign of being unfit??!
Question: i went for a jog today and after 12 minutes of non stop moderate jogging i got this horible stitch, like too painful to keep jogging
and i cant really go that long anyways, only about 15 mins of continuous jogging on any other day
im 16 and at a healthy weight range (5'6, 121 pounds) so weight isn't a problem.. so am i unfit?

Sometimes "the stitch" means you have eaten to soon before exercising, if you havn't done much exercise before and are just jumping into it, don't expect to be able to run a marathon like that, fitness is something you build up, over time and practise. It sounds pretty good to me, maybe try 15 mins jogging normal rate, then another 10 at a slower pace? Goodluck! :0
no, this does not mean your unfit.
people have a wide range of endurance,
this means that many people can run for alot longer than others,
and stiches and cramps can be caused by many hings such as:
Eating before running,
To much pressure on a certain part of the body,
and weak parts of the body
Dear...,
Just go for a routine check up including lipid profile. Show the reports to a good heart specialist. He will tell
you the course of action.Nothing to worry, as you are young.
All the best.
no! it is just that your using a different muscle
