Brief Answer:
Can be low calcium and vitamin D3.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The feeling of weakness in the legs at your age is likely to be due to low levels of calcium and vitamin D3. This can also be related to decreased fluid intake and electrolyte imbalance. You need to get a few blood tests done and start with suitable supplements. Also, a healthy diet and a moderate exercise will help in building the muscle strength.
I hope this answers your query.
