What Causes Fatigue, Dizziness And Headache After Starting Intense Workout?

I have juste started following an excercize plan that started at the beginning of May. It is about 50 minutes a day alternation cardio and strenght training. Before this workout plan, I excercised about 20 minutes a day and the intensity of my workouts were lower. All was good until a few days ago, I feel like I have no energy, no motivation and my head hurts. Do I lack food? Do I lack water? I really want to finish this plan, even after I eat, I am still dizzy.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

You should eat well before starting the workout. Also drink enough water. If you still feel bad then maybe you should increase gradually the intensity of your workout. The body needs to get used too. I need some more information, but if you are dizzy also outside of doing your workout, then maybe you have an inner ear problem and that needs 2-3 weeks to be resolved.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
