Try eating a piece of sugar before working out. Your sugar level's probably low. But really, go get checked out.

In all seriousness, it sounds to me like you're not breatheing enough... have someone watch you to see if you are holding you breath while you excersize.

You're on the right track to get a physical. There must be some underlying cause for this problem. You might try a drink like Gatorade that not only replenishes fluids lost, but also electrolytes lost. If you sweat a lot you are losing electrolytes and may be more sensitive to that than most people. The other possibility I'm thinking of is you may be prediabetic and need to have some calories half way through your routine so your body has available glucose to utilize. I'd give either or both of these a try to see if it helps.

Welcome to the world of working out babe...completely natural...when i start back after a long lay off I almost always pass out if I push real hard...if you are getting dizzy and nauseated that means you are working hard...keep it up. It'll go away once your body gets acclimated to the work you are putting it thru...but keep pushing...you want to always feel faint at the end of your workout...bye and good luck.

Maybe you are over doing it, or you could have low blood sugar. Check with your doctor to be on the safe side. I have low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and it causes me to feel like you described.

I experience the same sensation after lifting with my legs. I feel dizzy after exercises like the leg press or squat. This may be caused by dehydration but I would recommend getting the physical, even though I don't anything will show up during the physical, but tell your doctor about it. After talking to him, try talking to a fitness trainer or employee at the fitness center about your problem.

Dont eat before your workout. If you do eat your digestive organs system will need a lot of blood to digest what you ate. You want to make blood available for your muscles.
