Unless you have a medical problem like asthma, its because you are out of shape with non-existent aerobic fitness.

You need to do aerobic exercise and it will get better with time.

Immediate thoughts, like others, is poor cardio fitness.

My second thought, is do you have any issues with anxiety? I have exercise induced anxiety/panic attacks, it makes going to a gym/working out outside/going to classes something of an impossibility and when I first started working out at home I had to stop all the time to bring myself down as I was constantly panicking from overheating and increased heart rate. I've worked through it enough for it not to impact on home workouts now.

Just food for thought.

Do you smoke?

I have exercise-induced asthma. Meaning I have technically have asthma but it is really only aggravated when my heart rate is up and working out - so its incredibly hard to diagnose other than by telling your doctor what happens to you. One tell-tale sign is if the shortness of breath is also accompanied by wheezing or tightening of the chest. I exercise everyday including cardio but I have to go at my own pace and always found it difficult to play on sports teams that require a lot of fast-paced endurance. It can be overcome and doesn't mean you should stop exercising. The doctor would be able to give you a puffer to help with your airways if its becoming a hurdle to your fitness. You take it before exercise and it stops your airways from constricting while you exercise. Good luck.

could be allergies? that are super bad lately where i live and could see it affecting someone's breathing.

I've had that with allergies or anxiety. But maybe you just need a full rest day or two.

You probably aren't as fit as you think you are. Just because you work out everyday doesn't mean you are.

If you don't have a medical issue...and your doctor says you don't...then you are exercising at an intensity level beyond what you can easily handle. If you back off a bit, you won't get as out of breath.

Focus on cardio more.

Are your workouts primarily strength / muscle toning related?
