Why Couldn't I Do 50-minutes?

Today, I started a high intensity cardio workout that was 50-minutes long. Lots of jumps, jacks, etc. I've done it before to completion, although it was challenging. Today, I got to 22-minutes, and knew I was "done in," so went to the cool down. I was exhausted. Could it have anything to do with the heavy weight lifting day I did yesterday? It was only upper body, but it was intense and an hour long. Would that really have an effect on my energy level today?

What do you think?

@SW-User I realized that after I wrote it. Duh! *slaps self on face* True. I do plenty of 30-minute cardio, but wanted to do this 50-minute one. Oh well! Maybe leave it for winter when it's not so humid.

@SW-User I back off a bit in summer, but don't give it up entirely. Mainly go easier on the cardio. Weight lifting is easier in high humidity than jumping around.

Oh I don't have the energy with all the work to be done gardening etc. Lol
Winter is snow shovelling
Spring and fall re my best times 👍
