Does Anyone Else Have Slow Recovery Time?

It seems like it always takes me such a long time to recover from workouts. I can do 6 mile runs on the weekends, but then I can hardly workout more than 20 minutes for the rest of the week, until maybe the next weekend. I also have trouble increasing my resistance training. I feel like I'm sore for a lot longer than most people. I feel like I'm always tired too... could it be a sleep issue?

Any thoughts or advice? It's not just my muscles. It takes a long time for cuts and other things to heal as well. I've been trying to take more vitamins and supplements, but I'm not really sure what things to take. I'm working with a personal trainer now, and he's really good, but he doesn't know a ton about gluten-intolerance and my specific issues.

How long has this been happening? I just started ramping up on biking (from doing nothing for six months due to illness to now doing 30miles at a time). My muscles and joints hurt and I was exhausted and hungry all the time. I ice my knees or other joints that tend to bother me as soon as I get home. I stretch to loosen my muscles. I take a bath with bath salts right after getting back which seems to help. I eat more potassium (bananas) and protein. It's been working pretty well.

I'm just wondering if this is a recent thing that's occurring because you're pushing yourself more now or if this has been going on for a long time.

This has been going on a while. I'm pushing myself more lately, but it's only been 2 weeks this time. Generally what happens is that I'm able to push for 3 weeks then it seems like I'm overtraining. I feel like that threshold is really low for me. Whether I keep pushing or ease off during the following week, I still have trouble making it past that point. I feel like it's several days before I'm not sore anymore after that. Like I said- it's not just muscles that take a long time to heal, it's cuts and stuff too.

This happens even when I haven't had a recent glutening... maybe those effects last longer than I think, but a whole month just from soy sauce or something like that? It's rare that I get a really bad glutening that last for more than a week. Maybe I'm wrong.

      Oh wow thankyou so much  for this information that's is very eye opening , you see I always say talk to the ones who have experienced ,  my analogy was always you can never feel the pain of a broken leg untill you have one, I'm so glad you reached out to me and will definitely look into all this advice ,  the docters don't listen one said to me have you been googling symptoms lol, nope there real I'm real and I'm suffering ! I've been on vitamin supplements on and off threw blood tests for over 15 years, yet they didn't question why it was always like that ? I do believe also that the deficiency needs looking at because I have frequent diarrhea and wat I'm loosing I'm probably not getting back, hence the symptoms your right are being caused and I'm feeling poorly threw it ,so thankyou again for this advice , I can't express in words how much I appreciate it , I have just developed a huge white patch on my neck also , she has given me nizorol shampoo to wash it and antifungal tablets , I've already tried the cream didn't work it's not itchy not red just a large skin depigmentation , I have olive skin so it stands out but that's just occured in the last few months too, and she said it could take two years to come back 🤷

      @nanny marley, Have you been taking any vitamins or mineral supplements besides Vitamin D? What are you eating?  Do you eat processed gluten free foods?   You said your symptoms included fatigue, body hair loss, low vitamin d,  Restless Leg Syndrome, Raynaud's Syndrome, contact dermatitis, rhinitis, body aches, TMJ, heart palpitations, sleep issues, vomiting,  dizziness, frequent bowel movements. There's eight B vitamins and Vitamin C that are water soluble.  When one has diarrhea for extended periods of time, those water soluble essential vitamins are flushed out of the body easily, and there's little time to absorb any more water soluble vitamins or fat soluble vitamins from food moving through that fast.   It's easy to become vitamin deficient with diarrhea.   Deficiency in Vitamin B1, Thiamine, can result in Gastrointestinal BeriBeri which can also cause diarrhea, fatigue, and abdominal pain.  Deficiency in Vitamin B3, Niacin, can cause diarrhea as well as skin rashes, and sleep issues.  Deficiency in Vitamin B12, Cobalamine, can cause diarrhea and Restless Leg Syndrome.  Deficiency in Vitamin C can cause diarrhea and skin rashes. Thiamine deficiency can also cause heart palpitations, sleep issues, and vomiting.  Have you had your thyroid checked?  Hypothyroidism can cause body hair loss, as can iron deficiency.   I've experienced serious nutritional deficiencies which my doctors did not recognize as such and blamed me for making stuff up.  I've experienced these nutritional deficiencies.  I earned a degree in Microbiology after studying nutrition because I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.  Vitamins are special organic compounds that our bodies cannot make, so we must get them from food or supplements.  Without these vitamins, our bodies cannot function well. Talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing with vitamins and minerals that are lacking on the gluten free diet.  Blood tests for deficiencies in the B vitamins are not accurate.  Taking a B Complex and looking for health improvement is best.   I've got serious vision problems and would really appreciate punctuation.  Thanks P.S.  I take a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12 and Pyridoxine B6 for back pain from crushed vertebrae.  I understand back pain.  These vitamins together relieve pain.
