I run 4 miles a day EASILY, and I'm perfectly active & healthy. (I'm 18, female, not pregnant). I live alone, but I HATE cleaning.
Why? Not necessarily because it bores me, (though it does). Because I literally get exhausted & out of breath. I end up NEEDING to take a nap (which NEVER happens to me from cardio exercise and/or serious mental activity like a college test, etc).
Squatting (impossible to avoid when housecleaning) makes me exhausted (I get kind of dizzy and have to sit down) and lifting things like boxes are difficult for me. Squatting & lifting everyday things SHOULD NOT be this difficult for me.
I always end up with sore muscles when I'm cleaning. Vacuuming is physically draining to me as well - I can't even scrub a pot hard without needing to sit down for a breather.
How can I become less lazy and pathetic? According to my doctor, I'm physically healthy.
I'm 5'10 and 122 lbs, and I don't smoke. I also eat pretty healthy (no meat, except fish - I eat veggie sources of protein). I also drink lots of water.
