Signs of overtraining

Overtraining occurs when the volume and intensity of exercise you are performing exceed your body's ability to recover properly in between workouts. It can lead to a range of physical and psychological symptoms that can impact your health and wellbeing, and may lead to injuries and burnout.

Recognizing the signs of overtraining is important for preventing injury and burnout. Here are the key signs of overtraining to be aware of:

  • Chronic fatigue that doesn't improve with rest
  • A decline in your athletic performance
  • Difficulty with falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restful sleep
  • Excessive soreness after working out
  • Elevated resting heart rate
  • Increased infections and illness rate due to reduced immune function
