    Warm up and cool down are two of the best things you can do for your body. I don't know that it will solve the shaking issue though.

    If you are drinking enough water and eating enough of the right things. You should probably go see your doctor.

    How is your HR? Does it jump up 30 beats per minute upon standing? I have dysautonomia and if I exercise standing up I will black out because my HR goes over 200 after a few minutes. I have to do all my exercise seated. I do the recumbent bike and the rowing machine. I had to go to cardiac rehab because I needed to be monitored while exercising at first. They diagnosed me on a tilt table test although I have also had 2 echo stress tests, worn 2 holter monitors, and had other testing done. I get very shaky and feel weird during and after exercise. I make sure to drink a lot of water...I do about 2 gallons a day.

    My resting HR always runs high, can be anything from 90-115 and goes up to 155-165 with exercise so its not neccesarily something to hold you back but I'd say go back for follow up and specificually point out this problem

    Does any one think eating maybe a good breakfast first will help?? I usually workout in the am eating like a banana or shake first. Maybe its not enough to fuel my body. Doctor is not really an option due to finances....

    Going to the doctor is your smartest move--if you don't like the one you went to last time, change. Then you have to try different things to see what works for you. Try doing easier exercises with a short intense spurt now and again, and try to go longer, but less intense. You have had some great advice above and I would try some of it. Best of luck. :)

    Have some carbs before you workout. Warm up before you workout and make sure you cool down/stretch after too. Then eat some protein after...have food, not shakes.

    ETA: what do your workouts consist of?

    yeah, what are your workouts?

    I'm a lazy *kitten*, and I can put down 90 minutes lifting, or a couple hours on a bike without much challenge... I would think someone smaller, eating well, and doing it for 6 months would be able to at least match if not outpace what I cando.

    Zero medical complications? Hm, odd.
