Language Learning Fatigue

I am learning Spanish right now. I would say that I'm at the A2 level and am trying to increase my oral fluency. I've been practicinng daily for about 1-4 hours daily. However, I'm finding that I'm becoming mentally fatigued and sometimes fall asleep. Is this common?

I am learning German. I have the same feeling - mental fatig. Our brain is similar to our muscles, too much exercises will make it tired and we need time to rest and reset.
One method to overcome and maximum the efficience is to change materials, and change the practise aspects - we have speaking, listening, writing, and read - try a different exercise when you feel tired.
