Thank you for this list. Glad you had a good experience with it. Hi everyone, As a cyclist I noticed that warming down helps a lot against muscle stiffness and pain.
It works by just pedalling lightly for the last kilometer or so. The amount of time spent for warming down is nothing compared to the long term pain or inconvenience that could happen afterwards. The same is certainly true with running. Just jog a lap, then walk a lap at the end it also helps to be less gross if you have to go anywhere afterwards haha.
A friend said that you did not get any more benefits from 2 hrs of exercise that after one hour you are not doing your body any favors. What is the truth? Frankly, I feel this emphasis on exercise is blown way out of proportion. Ninety percent, if not more of my weight control is through diet. It probably has to do with increased cortisol due to the stress of working out.
Exercise also makes my sugar cravings go through the roof. People say they work out to relieve stress? Everyone is different, but my body just does not need it, in fact it just aggravates my body more and actually makes me crave more food. I am able to maintain healthy blood pressure ,cholesterol and weight without beating myself up at the gym. Stop eating so much, adopt a vegan or vegetarian diet and you will not need the gym.
Exercise is important for bone density and strength, and overall well being. The trick is to find something that resonates with you. So running and lifting weights does not float your boat. What about other sports or calisthenics or less impacting ones like swimming or yoga. I am An ex soldier and policeman. I have been fit all my life. After leaving these active roles I became lazy so I started taekwondo training and thoroughly enjoyed it.
It was tough and I managed to keep up with people half my age. Suddenly my energy levels went flat. My enthusiasm wained. My joints were aching. Most of the above symptoms came into play. Hi Denis! Too much exercise or at too intense of a level, can leave you drained, and worse, at risk of injury.
Overtraining occurs when a person partakes in too much physical training with too little rest and recovery after hard workouts. The resulting stress placed on the muscles, joints and bones causes fatigue and soreness that ultimately affects performance. While over-training syndrome most often applies to serious athletes, that doesn't mean that recreational athletes or weekend warriors are free from the effects of pushing the body too hard.
Here are a few physical symptoms and lifestyle patterns to be aware of that may be signs you're going too hard in the gym. Being sore after a workout can be a good feeling you put those muscles to work!
As a fitness coach, I often see clients trying to do too much too fast. Research has shown that increasing the intensity of a workout in small increments is better for your body overall. For weights, try going up 2. Gradually increasing intensity in one area before focusing on another will help you get stronger and faster, without putting your body through too much, too soon. If a muscle group or joint on one side of your body is sore after a workout, but not the other, it may be a sign that you overworked a body part and may need additional healing and recovery time.
If you have single-sided pain, you're also healing and recovering, he adds, but you should allow extra time to heal and it may be worthwhile to seek additional help to hasten this process. Did you not run 26 miles with that side as well? The injury is likely the imbalance that a biomechanics specialist can diagnose and correct. Choosing a workout over time your family, work obligations, or social outings on a consistent basis are signs that you may be hyper-focused on exercise.

If you find that getting your workout in is becoming an obsession, be sure to discuss these feelings with your health care professional. Be sure that your eating habits support your body and training program. This includes making sure you are getting enough calories, and that the foods you consume have enough carbohydrates and protein to support energy levels and muscle repair.
Stay hydrated throughout the day, not just during your workout. Consider consulting a nutritionist if you have questions about your body's specific needs. If you start to experience symptoms of overreaching, consult your doctor and trainer and takes steps to prevent further overworking your muscles. This may include stopping training completely for a period of time and adjusting your diet and nutrition plan.
In extreme cases, working out too much has side effects that may include the dangerous breakdown of muscle fibers that then enter the bloodstream. This is a condition called rhabdomyolysis, advises Harvard Health Publishing.
Symptoms include brown or dark colored urine and muscle soreness and weakness. Consult your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms of rhabdomyolysis. Although rare, this is a serious condition that can lead to kidney failure.
