Does UR Gym workout tire you

[blondsurfer]

Man, I am physically decimated after my gym workout, I don't even know how I'm typing this right now. I worked out for three hours today, I was so tired that I had trouble driving home, I stopped at Wendys on the way home just to get a Baked Potato for dinner I think I gave them the wrong amount of money( too much)- but I didn't care and drove off. Got home saw on my answer machine that my dad called, I called him back he thought I sounded like I was drunk. Neighbor stopped by I was crass and ignorant to them. I usually don't feel good, I don't make any sense when I'm talking and I snap at people because I'm so worn out. Do your workouts take alot out of you?

That's how I act when I rake leaves.

What exactly do you do for 3 hours? I never got how someone can work out for that long. Is it non-stop working out or is there rest breaks in-between? The most I can do is 1.5 hours!

 

[blondsurfer]

No I try not to rest in between, I try to do like circuit training with alot of cardio mixed in.

I just do a treadmill for about half an hour a day. Work up a decent sweat, but don't wear myself out.

But then again, I ain't gettin' any chili hole.

Yep, it wears me out! I try not to over do it like I did one time though, haha I made a fool of my self because I was so tired and I tripped over a weight and I had no more strength to catch myself I and fell... in front of Jesse Metcalfe and he laughed at me! I wanted to die right then and there But I do a cool down work out ... A slow pace jog on the tread mill and then hit the sauna and then leave when I'm back to normal.
Sometimes after my workouts I'll take a long nap, because mine last about 3 hours as well.

Sounds as though you are doing too much at one session. Try Cardio M-W-F and weights T-T-S ..taking Sun off for two weeks and see if this eliminates the fatigue factor.

A little, there's the obvious ache and sweatiness, but I don't pass out or fall over. At worst, I'll have a stitch in my side.

Well, that's the price you have to pay for looking good~~
When was the last time you worked out?

Three hours at a time is too much. More than an hour and you start building up too high a level of cortisol
