When I overdo it or get too tired I get a tiredness which I can only describe as whole body. Nothing specific is hurting or aching. Just that everything feels slow and is a bit of an effort.
Usually my voice goes soft at the same time.

@BearNumberOne lack of dopamine… Go slow and steady.. you are probably not making much of your own dopamine , just what you take as in DA. .. hence tried .. speech can also be affected lack of dopamine .
your muscles have to work twice as hard .. = tiredness.
Yeah it really is a deep kind of tiredness almost bordering on exhaustion. I still like to push myself when I can but the cost is a high one.
