Be sure you are lifting the proper weight and your form is perfect. Then remember to breathe 
Most likely that is the culprit. Holding out breathe is not good. One easy way to remember to breathe is to move with your breathe.
So for example, on a basic bicep curl you would start with your hands down by your sides. Take a deep breathe in and on the EXHALE lift the weights up to your shoulders. Then inhale and lower back to start.
Breathe slow and move slow. If that doesn't help it could be an issue with your blood sugar or something else. I'd check with your doctor at that point.

I agree with the above: make sure you breathe and don't stand up too fast.
Also, what are you eating before your workout? It could be low blood sugar due to not eating enough to fuel your workout.

I get really hot so I'm sure to dress lightly and keep the fan on (all year). Would that help you?
