So /fit, yesterday something fucking weird happened. I tried out a new gym circuit of doing 10 minutes of intense cardio and then doing a lot of weight. I completed this circuit 3 times.
So as I was on my third and final circuit, I was doing shoulders and suddenly I felt like my arms could barely move and I had no control over them and I tried to breath in and I felt as if no oxygen was actually being absorbed by my bloodstream. What could of causes this and what the fuck happened ? This was the hardest workout I ever did so was it just exhaustion ? After that happened I drank some water and left. Was it just exhaustion or something more ? Would it of been safe to ignore this and keep working out ?
I am a male 6,1 170 pounds 19 years old.
Shameless self bump

Congratulations, it's not even 9 am but I'm positive that was the most retarded thing I'll read today

Stop doing cardio while doing heavy weight. Do the weightlifting first the. Then cardio after your workout. Lucky you didnt pass out

Thanks for the advice, I didn't actually know it was dangerous, it's just I swear the most when I use this specific workout

Fuck off, the oxygen gets absorbed in your blood inside of the lungs
>10 minutes of intense cardio and then doing a lot of weight
That sounds colossally fucking dumb
cardio should be of moderate intensity over a long period of time
"10 minutes of intense cardio" sounds enormously stupid

>my amateur hour self diagnosed "oxygen isnt getting absorbed into my bloodstream"-ism is totally legitamite
I'm not a doctor, and won't claim to know whether or not that is what happened to you, but experience dictates that usually when people say "I think this is what's happening with my body" they're usually miles off the mark. I would guess that "oxygen getting absorbed into your bloodstream" isn't a process that just randomly fucking stops, like that isn't how the human body works, at all.

">I felt as if no oxygen was actually being absorbed by my bloodstream"
I said that's how I felt, no where in space and time did I factually say no oxygen was being absorbed into the bloodstream. I simply assumed your IQ was high enough for you to understand I felt breathless. However you proved me wrong.

Stop doing crossfit. You're gonna get injured, especially doing shoulders in that state. It's easy to injure shoulders, and even more so when you're doing intense cardio beforehand.

>I said that's how I felt
Yeah but "how you felt" is in no way indicative of what was actually happening.
One time I told a doctor that I thought my blood pressure was extremely high because of how stressful my job is, he politley explained that I'm retarded and that's not how blood pressure works.
Whatever. Just stop exercising like a fucking dumbass and whatever you're feeling will go away.

Surprisd faggot, your muscles get exhausted. Try doing 4-5 different chest exercises, each 5x5, and then doing push ups.
It's almost scary how nothing happens even though you try your hardest.
