Not sure if you’re doing too much in the gym? Then this episode is for you! During this podcast episode I explore the 7 main signs of overtraining and provide practical insights into recognizing and addressing these effects. I use my own journey and relationship with fitness to highlight the impact overtraining has on your physical and mental health. I emphasize the importance of strategizing rest and recovery and how to take a balanced approach to your workout’s frequency and intensity. I wrap up the episode with the three steps to take, providing any of the 7 signs stood out to you.

Key Takeaways:

• Overtraining often accompanies undereating, hindering the body's ability to recover.
• Normal soreness is expected but extended soreness indicates overtraining
• Recognize what sign or symptom popped out to you and act accordingly
• Your workouts should leave you feeling energized and not like a zombie
• Rest days or active recovery days should be strategically planned throughout your regimen
• Calculate your current intensity and then scale it back
