Ummm so I totally bonked or had a freak-out 40 minutes into Spin class. I was working pretty hard and after the 2nd speed workout dealie thing I couldn't get my legs moving and I felt all light-headed and the only thing I wanted to do was bolt out of class, which I did with wibbly wobbly legs.

Can you bonk after only 40 minutes? Do people eat before morning workouts? This has never happened to me before, but I had a 15 hour workday yesterday, haven't been sleeping more than 6 hours/night the past week, and hadn't really had anything to eat after 4pm yesterday so I am guessing that is what did it.

I just need to hold on until March 14th! I am in the middle of moving and changing jobs which means working 2.5 jobs at the moment and sleeping and eating like crap. I am so not hardcore!

Typically you wouldn't bonk after 40 minutes but you already answered your own question because it wasn't a 40 minute effort... working 15 hours, not sleeping, not eating... that all adds up and puts a ton of stress on the body!

Just hold on for one more day!

orange, apple and grape juice, milk, V8 and chocolate milk fortified with high fructose corn syrup, red bull and a few varieties of beer were all available. What else needs to be added to the assortment? Gatorade, egg nog, hard liquor, or Dr. Pepper? Coffee is a given.
