A member asked:
Can being underweight cause fatigue during exercise ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: If you are underweight because you are not getting enough nutrition, then yes. You can't get all the benefits of exercise if you are starving. If you are naturally thin, then it's probably not related.
