Summary

A Reddit user with CFS wrote that they go to the gym to weightlift and run every day, crashing afterwards, then returning the next day once the crash passed. They believed staying active might help them live longer than being sedentary, though they questioned whether this was wise. No onset, duration or recovery was described.
