Body says NOOOOOOO

I have been doing row sprints one day a week for the last 6 weeks.
The last two weeks, my first sprints have been great and then it's like my body just goes "NOPE".
I really have to fight to get the sprint done, it's like my body just doesn't want to do the movement anymore.
We are now changing my program so it's not a problem, but I was wondering if this is just muscle fatigue or mental state (I have depression).

    depends but more info is needed.

    have you changed your eating?
    do you workout other days of the week, if so what do you do?

    I do a 6 day a week program.
    Sunday is my rest day.
    Monday, Wednesday, Friday I do a class focused around weighted exercises, tabata and endurance.
    Tuesdays right now I am doing 6 x 200m row sprints, then 10 squat thrusts, 5/arm snatch, 10 lateral hops over the dumbbell as many rounds as possible for 10 minutes, then finish with core.
    Thursdays I do either 10 rounds of tabata on the bike, or 20 rounds of tabata boxing. Then 10 kb swings, 5/arm thruster, 5/arm bent over rows as many rounds as possible in 10 minutes, then finish with core.
    Saturdays I do "light cardio" eg bike, jog, long walk etc)

    My diet hasnt changed much in 5 months.
    I try and eat a whole foods diet. I follow 80/20 eating to give myself a bit of leeway here and there. I don't eat a lot of sugars and I dont drink much besides water.
