A member asked:

I worked out for 8 mins n then took a rest. i felt like i'll faint. had headache. why is this so? is that due to lack of nutrition or something?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Easy fatigue: can be due to a wide variety of reasons including de conditioning from a sedentary lifestyle, relative dehydration, pregnancy, anemia, thyroid disorders, heart/ lung problems and many, many other things. Your personal physician can help you sort this out!
