How To Prevent Over-training

The most common and most costly mistake made by casual and serious exercisers alike is habitual over-training, which results in a decline in health, fitness and motivation levels.

 

 

1.  Elevated resting heart rate.

2.  Loss of appetite.

3.  Insomnia.

4.  Increased muscle soreness for more than 4 days.

5.  Decline in athletic performance.

6.  Abnormal weight loss even though your calories have not decreased.

Exercise is a form of physical stress to your body. When you exercise, you are actually fatiguing your muscle fibers, heart, lungs and other systems of your body.

Often your mind and your ego override the natural principles of stress and rest as you pursue your tangible goals. The goals you set, the training diary you keep, the influence of your peers and the judgments you place on your physical appearance are all mental factors that motivate you into action.

Remember to be smart and listen to your body.  Rest when you need to train 100% when you can and you will achieve all of your goals.
