Can you over train?

Can you still take a Vacation this summer?

What about this quote: “When the summer break starts, players need some time to mentally and physically recover from the season. However, what would happen to the physical status of the players if they do not perform any type of structured training during a 4-week summer break? Research has shown that body fat percentage would substantially increase, whereas endurance capacity would substantially decrease It should be noted that a training program would minimize these effects. This is of great importance for trainers and coaches, since players who begin pre-season with high levels of physical fitness are able to improve their physical fitness during the season. In contrast, players who return unprepared are more likely to experience reductions in physical performance during the season."
