Have you ever tried an intense fitness program, done it for a few weeks, and quit because of soreness, fatigue, and unsustainability? Or, have you ever felt like you're doing "all the right things" and working hard but not seeing any progress? Today, Shannon will discuss the hormonal reasons why burnout happens and how it can lead to an anti-recomposition environment in which losing fat and/or building muscle becomes difficult.
