There’s a basic law of living that goes like this:

If you want more, do more.

It applies more or less across the board. You tend to get out of life in proportion to what you give.

Want more money or a bigger business? Work harder at it and you’ll have the best chances of success.

Want deeper, more fulfilling relationships with friends or family? Spend more time building those relationships and watch them blossom.

Want to be the best player on your team? Practice longer and harder than your confreres and you’ll slowly pull ahead of the pack.

You get the point.

Working out isn’t that simple, though.

The “more is better” approach works…until it doesn’t. And then it becomes counterproductive.

That is, in terms of building muscle, strength, and endurance, more training is generally better than less…but once you exceed your body’s ability to recover, the wheels start to fall off.

-You struggle to finish your workouts.

-You lose strength and endurance.

-You sleep poorly.

-You struggle with fatigue and lethargy.

-You have odd aches and pains.

-You get sick more frequently.

These are all signs that there is a systemic imbalance between work and recovery.
