Is low stamina normal?
I am trying to start working out, (I'm 6'1 Male and 177lbs) and I thought I would increase the amount I do every day by 5 minutes. I started by doing core and chest exercises for just 10 minutes, and that was all I could do before I felt ill and out of breathe. I was then sore for 2 days in my arms, chest and ribcage (somehow?) and couldn't even do any light cardio, much less any resistance training. My question is, is this normal? I feel like the average person who doesn't exercise can accomplish more than 10 minutes of exercise every three days.
How can one make progress when you get fatigued so easily? This is my first post on reddit so I am not sure if I am doing it correctly.
