That's precisely what I thought too back when I was having fatigue problems last year - I didn't think I was doing enough to be "overtrained" ! Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't - but all I know is, once I took some off, I felt much better when I did start up again.
Have you had a checkup recently to rule out any other possibilities? Thyroid issues, that sort of thing? (apologies if you already discussed this).
That's a drag that you already paid for spin classes. Is there any way they could defer your membership, if only for a few weeks?
Wishing you the best.
