Beast of a session at gym tonight. Started with a 2km row to WARM UP. 4x500m at level 10 to be precise. 2x200m sprints. Followed up with 4 sets of 10@65kg deadlifts, 4 laps of the gym holding 40kg and 2 lengths of walking squats holding 16kg. Finished with burpees and sumo high pulls with a 20kg KB.
Got some spots in front of my eyes during the deads but during the sumos it was like a black curtain came down and I couldnt see a thing, got really shaky and had to sit down rather abruptly befre I hit the deck. Not had that before. Wore off and I ate a cpl squares dark choc. Now just have a headache. Have eaten today so not sure wtf was going on

To me, that sounds like it might be a blood pressure thing (the headache makes me think this specifically), unless you were holding your breath. Could be low blood sugar, too, depending on how you ate today. So many factors. Glad you're tracking. I'd just watch for a repeat pattern. The only time I've ever had this happen was with rupturing ovarian cysts, and as painful as that was, I'm sure you'd have known. Also got cold sweats and ringing ears and all...0

No i suspect it was exertional tbh as it had been a bugger of a session and Ive come away with a headache and a pain in my chest and was shaky for a while after with slightly tingly hands. I have the gp in a week so will keep an eye o it. My PT has asked me to wear my HRM for sessions frm now on as she noticed I shot over 165 while running and I have a high resting rate so might be a factor. I have eaten fine today but had just eaten a flapjack to be sure as Id had a fairly low cal dinner so may simply have hit a wall. Also have cut caffeine back down. So many factors0
