Why do I get so exhausted after exercise?

[Anonymous]

I'm still new to exercise and it's been about a week now and I've done medium intensity for 30 minutes for the last 3 days and I feel so exhausted afterwards is that normal and will eventually this fade away? How long will it take for me to get used to it?

Lactic acid builds in your muscles and doesn't clear before your next workout. Since you are new to working out in general your body hasn't adapted. This is the explicit reason why good trainers will recommend you perform a cool down stretch after your workout to decompress the lactic acid build up and make it easier to clear. Another alternative is to walk it off, it can be difficult, but if you do a low intensity walk it will help clear the acid quicker.

As mentioned earlier your body will change over time. When I workout it's no longer a question of fatigue that stops me, but rather joint and muscle wear and tear, so I could for instance train biceps 7 days a week and not feel as sore as a nooby lifter.

You should feel that you trained to get progress. If you are not tired at all, it will only give you a stable condition, but no improvement
