How to Avoid Overtraining

When you or a client is eager and ready to push your body to the limits, that’s great, but the potential downside is over training. There are some smart ways to stay passionate and dedicated while also avoiding overtraining:

  1. Develop a schedule that minimizes stress.

  2. Develop a rational training program that makes sense.

  3. Conform your workouts to cycle training principles.

  4. Vary your training methods.

  5. Sleep eight hours every night and eat a healthy, well-rounded diet.

  6. Work with a coach, because it's tough being objective with your own training.

  7. Take a couple of naps during the day. A 20-minute nap is all it takes to re-energize.

  8. Find a sports medicine clinic that can help you monitor symptoms of overtraining.

  9. Let logic rule your training, not ego.

  10. After workouts, whirlpool affected muscles and massage them vigorously for one minute
