    I read once that people also yawn when they're stressed - so a stressful workout might be setting it off. I'm not sure about the actual desire to fall asleep though. I'm one to yawn a lot during working out (totally messes up my breathing) but I don't actually feel tired unless I'm sleep or food deprived.

    Oddly enough I went through this a while ago. I couldn't tell you what caused it, but happily I can confirm it went away

    I'm asthmatic and I yawn when I need my inhaler.

    Do you eat enough carbs?

    I thought of this too. I know when i dip below 50g I feel very tired and cant stop yawning. Maybe up your carbs and see how you feel

    I have the same problem while running. I could just lay down on the ground and sleep right there. Not so much tired as just extremely sleepy. Also a buzzy head. Not dizzy just buzzy. I have no answer for you. Hopefully this thread will help us both.
