After going to a nutritionist for fatigue, I was recommended to take different multivitamins and increase my diet. This made a slight difference, but my muscles were still weak after working out. A friend suggested Recovsport by Stolle Wellness. After taking it daily, and right before exercising I finally began to feel a difference. It increased my strength and helped my muscles recover quicker after my workouts. I would suggest add this to your diet to see if it improves anything.

I've been cutting back what I eat to lose some weight - I'm eating about 1500-1600 calories per day, but perhaps I'm not eating enough protein? The Banana honey trick sounds good. I'll give it a try.

Are you in the shape that you should be to do a 50 minute cardio workout?
If it is your eating than I would try to get in more fruit and maybe do like a protien shake an hour before working out.
Alot of critics say that is too long before hand but I have been an avid runner for a national team for 4 years now and have found that it works the best that way. If it was intense...eat honey and a banana right after you workout. Doesn't sound to good but it gives you alot of energy and helps with lactic acids.
Last thing is that you maybe not taking in enough water....i would make sure to drink lots of water.
