Hi there!
I’m from the U.K. and I’m 26 and trying to get into some good habits after a breakup.
Since covid, I have tried to go on long walks regularly. However, whenever I try and do something more intense like cycling or running, I notice my legs tend to get “tired” or heavy much faster than when I feel out of breath. On the whole I have fairly muscular legs (lucky genetics) so I am always surprised that they seem to get tired so quickly. For instance, I’ve been trying to do for instance five minutes of non stop cycling on an exercise bike (during a 30-35 minute session) and often have to pause and stretch my legs after two or so.
Is this a common issue? Is it just that I’m unfit? Or is the problem that I’m not warming up my legs properly before starting?
Any help or tips are appreciated![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
