Maybe you should tell your doctor as you might need the veins in your legs checked out. I have weakness while on my exercise bike and had mine checked. I do have some blockage.

Weakness can be a symptom of heart disease. Here are some related points from the knowledge base:

- Fatigue: One of the common symptoms of heart disease is fatigue. This type of fatigue is different from the tiredness that may occur after a sleepless night. It happens because heart disease weakens your heart, causing your body to send less blood to nonessential areas (such as your limbs) so that your brain and vital organs can get enough oxygen-rich blood. This makes any exercise or exertion, such as climbing stairs or doing laundry, more exhausting than usual.

If you experience persistent weakness or fatigue, it is important to talk to your doctor about it.
