Do you still ride mountainbikes? Fitness quickly diminishes once you stop doing it...

EDIT: would the doctor do anything? I would have thought that they would just say what we've just said, i.e. fitness/diet/lazyness etc...

He is right, you could be super fit...... stop training and do nothing...... after 2 short weeks you will be back to square one.....

I hardly think you could go from being super fit to getting out of breath running in two weeks!

i think it only takes around 6 weeks to loose all your fitness, i was told you can literally go from Schwarzenegger to Woody Allen

It depends on your original fitness level. You can go from reasonably fit to a couch tattie in around 4 weeks. It will obviously last a bit longer if you are fitter. The OP didn't say how much mountain biking he was doing every day! :rolleyes:

EDIT: Also, fitness isn't about how big your muscles are or how big your six pack is, you can have a good body with low fat levels but still be unfit.

you road a year every day?
that like a lightyear?
or a sound year?
tbh, you may have a low bodyfat %, but that doesn't meen you've got any stanima.
try exersizing regularly for an hour or so every day.
since I started doing half an hour on the bike every day I can run around without getting out of breath (used to run our of breath running 100m, not even very fast).
also I've noticed that using the same level on the bike my BPM has gone down over the workout as a whole, having to up it over time realy helps me show myself progress.

OP, drink water, eat better, are you busy during the day? maybe its because you're exhausted? are you eating 3 times a day? full meals etc?
