Blood shunting occurs (1)

Increased blood flow to the digestive system is required after eating a large meal (1)

However blood flow is required to the active muscles during exercise (1)

Resulting in insufficient blood flow for increased blood flow to both the digestive system and active muscles / exercise causes blood flow to digestive system to be restricted / blood goes to muscles rather than digestive system (1)

Blood shunting (1)

To digest food the digestive system needs a (greater) blood supply (1)

But during exercise muscles need a greater blood supply/blood is shunted form stomach to working muscles (1)

Therefore there would be insufficient blood flow to exercise effectively as needed by the digestive system (1)

Therefore food would not be completely broken down (1)
