I have noticed I become dizzy during and after my workout when I bend over to stretch or drink from the water fountain. I am tall and need to bend over a fair amount to drink.

It usually happens right after my arc trainer session where I really push myself and then I go and stretch. Also after I am in the sauna at the end my workout as I do some stretching and lite exercises.

Am I pushing too hard?

    sounds like low blood pressure... do you know what your BP is?

    It could be blood pressure. Would be interesting to try to take a reading before and after your exercises?

    It could also just be dehydration as I feel like that if I push too hard or do almost anything in the heat if I haven't drunk enough water.

    My blood pressure has always been really good when I go to the doctor. Last visit was a couple months ago.

    I bet it is dehydration as I don't drink anything during my cardio..just a few water fountain sips afterwards and during lifting.
