It depends on what you eat and how quickly it empties the stomach.
You're better off exercising first.
Don't make the mistake of eating to compensate for the calories you're burning during exercise. You'll erase your caloric deficit.

It depends what you've had to eat and if you're doing strenuous exercising. If ye've had a full three course meal then it's 3-4 hours!
It's good to have a banana or some carbs 20-30mins before exercise.
You can have some pasta, Weetabix etc about an hour before to kick-start your metabolism. Alot of the energy your body needs to burn fat when your exercising will be used to digest your food. So, keep the two activities separate.
If you eat some high-sugar foods a while before exercising then you'll feel drained and tired so, you won't be bothered to exercise. Go to www.runnersworld.co.uk for nutritional advice!
Good luck!

It is better to exercise before you take food.
However if you dont prefer it then you have to wait till food is digested.
It actually depends on the kind of food which you have taken as you know that some foods rich in fats, take longer time to digest.
Moreover till now you would have learned that how much time your body takes to become ready for excercise.
It is always better to exercise after 2-3 hours of food intake so that your metabolism is not affected.

sounds like the average here is about an (1) hour.
Food for thought:
Mark Spitz who won 7 Olympic Gold Medals for swimming at the 1972 Olypics would eat several hambugers just before a race.
Makes you wonder.

All depends on what you are doing. It is best to wait 2 hours before you go swimming, so I would say the same about anything else.

Two to three hours after you eat to ensure digestion. You should wait an hour after you exercise to eat because your body is still burning calories while your heart rate slows.
