    Did you remember to breath? That is a pretty common thing. You get to punching and hold your breath, wears you out pretty quick. You see this in fights and they call it punching yourself out. Nope. A guy that has been training for a long time can punch all day, unless he forgets to breath. happens when you get excited or when you get tight.

    19 year olds don't "over-train". As long as you are sleeping good and eating right.

    Monitor your resting heart rate if you are really paranoid about it.

    Listen to your body. Are you constantly lethargic and/or sore?
