Managing gym fatigue requires lifestyle changes. Since exercising is also a habit which influences your lifestyle, managing the issues which accompany it would also require some permanent changes. With proper commitment, gym fatigue can be easily managed.
First, eat a well balanced diet – the age old advice, but the best advice. A balanced diet will solve a whole range of health issues in your life. A well balanced diet will strengthen your muscles and improve your physical capacity. A well balanced diet includes a large intake of water as well, to restore the water loss due to sweating.MAke sure to adjust your meals to your exercise schedule – avoid working out on a completely full or a completely empty stomach. Eat a snack an hour or two before hitting the gym and then have a meal an hour after working out to aid in muscle recovery. Additionally, make sure to rest plenty. Rest for a little while after warming up and continue taking slight breaks between workouts. This will allow you to last longer in the gym as your body will not tire out that easily.
