Show Notes
When we over-train, our bodies are constantly fatigued, and you can’t stop being sore. You are hurting and feel you don’t want to work out due to fatigue. You may even lose motivation for other things you usually enjoy in life. These are signs of legitimate overtraining.
However, in most cases, it is not a case of overtraining but rather under recovering. What we see with our members is that they are under recovering. Inadequate sleep is one of the reasons for under-recovery. Our bodies heal and recover during sleep. Diet also plays a vital role in recovery.
Our programming here at Pulse Fitness is designed so that we hit different muscle groups on different days. This balanced program approach ensures that our members are not at risk of overtraining. On the under-recovery part, we identify what is causing it and prioritize it. It can be sleep, diet, myofascial release, or mobility exercise.
