    Overtraining isn't something that most of the people on this website are in danger of. It takes a lot more than you would think to reach a state of overtraining.

    FACT ^ This original post will be harmful to far more people than it will be helpful.....This post will be used as an excuse to be lazy. I have excuse vision...i see excuses before they arrive.....Cant argue with results......Suck it.....

    I see your point. But whether it's overtraining, underfeeding, or something else entirely, if the points in the original article I posted apply to someone, I would think making some sort of change to what they're doing is in order, if the goal is to get to a normal weight, increase fitness, and become healthier overall. Spending months being sick, injured, and exhausted shouldn't be a requirement to achieve those goals. People can find always find excuses not to work out.

    People who are recovering from surgeries should know better not to exercise more than a couple days a week anyway...

    True, although I checked with my Doc and he said to go for it as. Long as I don't over over do it.... I really want to get well....

    Thanks for the info! You should probably mention somewhere though that those aren't your own words in addition to providing the link at the bottom. Otherwise it sounds like YOU wrote the article and then are linking people to more information from the original source. When in fact you just copied and pasted. Which is fine! But should be mentioned.

    I thought that was implied, sorry.

    Bump...

    I'm exhausted, mentally and physically, yet find that I'm awake every couple hours at night.
    My knees hurt, and my hips are way too tight.
    My shoulders keep popping out of joint and I'm not training them more than usual.
    Despite my elevated calorie burning, I'm not too hungry, and my heartburn has returned with a vengeance.

    I think I might be over training at the moment... Time to take a step back and have a taper week.
