    How much exercise do you do? Too much can be a very subjective thing.

    Tell your friend to HTFU and workout with you, or keep their opinions to themselves. Learn to listen to your body, and you'll know when you are overdoing it. ...and no, soreness doesn't mean you are overdoing it.

    Of course there is. You can go to the hospital for over exhaustion. But you need to clarify what OVER DOING IT IS.

    I do at least 3 hours every day Monday to Friday and maybe 5 during the weekends. I feel really good when I do my exercises and I just don't want to stop. My friend say is not healthy and I'm out of control, so I needed a second opinion. Thank you so much

    If you're walking for 3 hours, no big deal.
    If you're squatting hundreds of pounds for that 3 hours, yeah, that's overdoing it.
    My guess is you're closer to the walking and you could do yourself a lot more good by upping the intensity and decreasing the time.
