I thought you might be doing a lot of different sets. This may be the problem. I have been investigating the effects of all the sets that i was doing. Their effects on me, and with each other. Some really don't mix.
IMHO it is good to have something that stays the same, a unifying thread running through your different sets. For me, that is the spine wave. I have even snuck this move into my Kundalini spine set.
The reason people often say you should stick to one system is due to it's strong reinforcing effect on the body. If you do one different set after another it is like being pulled in many different directions.
If at work i do some spine waveing, within a few seconds i feel my energy levels increasing, and energy begining to circulate, because i do it so often the effect is magnifying all the time. But if i were to do a different move each time the effect would not nearly be so great.
If you find a few sets that work well together to regulate the body's energy, and give a complete workout, that would be best.
I am still experimenting with my own practise, but i would hazard a guess and say that it was the constant change to your system of regulating the qi, via different sets that is causing your tiredness.
