I am a 25 year old Asian female, weighing 98 lbs and about 5 ft. I used to work out a lot and was in good shape. Now I am a little out of shape and trying to get back in shape for my wedding. Whenever I workout now, I start yawning and get cold after awhile (I’m not being lazy).
No, you are not being lazy. Nor are you imagining things. When you were working out regularly, your metabolism was more efficient. Now, at 5 ft. and 98 pounds, you have very few reserves and when you expend a lot of energy, you do get cold and you get tired. My guess is you are trying to work out at the same level you were accustomed to — but your body isn’t there yet, so you’ll have to build up again, until your metabolism gets revved up.
Yawning, by the way, is a signal that your body wants more oxygen, which means you have to learn to breathe more deeply when you are working out.
Make sure you take either a bottle of water or a sport drink to the gym with you to keep yourself hydrated and to give yourself that little caloric boost that you need right now. I find most sport drinks are a little on the sweet side, so I likel to dilute them 50% with water, and throw a squirt of lemon juice in as well. Sometimes I just use a spoonful of lemon juice in a bottle of water, and that works well for me. Experiment to see what works best for you.


try to warm up before the exercise.and have a glass of soya milk or a banana before you work out. getting cold might come from the air conditioners in most gyms. maybe u can go when the air conditioner is still off which means its early in the morning hehe gd luck

Hello
it sounds like your muscles don’t have enough glycogen in storage. Try eating more complex carbs (pasta, noodles, bread, rice — better if whole). I have the same reaction you describe at times and I usually take care of the problem by eating a pizza or a big plate of pasta the day before exercising.
You might be an ectomorph too
