    Has anyone experianced a BIG dro in fitness with no apparent reason?? Im (OR THOUGHT I WAS) reasonably fit... Ran an average of 6-8 miles 3 times a week at about 50-70 mins. on days off I cross train some classes or crosstraiiner and weights 3 times a week. I get about 6-7 hours sleep a night and I eat a fairly balanced diet not perfect but all the food groups in the right proportions and a lil pig out every now nd again.. normal I think.... losts ot water.. about 3 lts inc training... of late i find that im out of breath within 20mis of a run.. Ihavnt got the want topush myself so much cuz I feel CRAP.. I got bloods done.. all fine.. iron thyroid, diabeties,vit b ect..

    If your bloods are fine then what is happening to you is perfectly normal. Sounds like your body is telling you to slow down a little.

    Stress will do this to you.

    Either from overtraining or something extrenal. A week away in a warm climate with good food and plenty of rest always does the trick for me.

    Yep ... sounds like overtraining. You've got all the right components for a healthy fit lifestyle except rest from training. Google overtraining and you'll probably find some solid advice. Hal Higdon's site is good.
