Increased risk of injury
Overtraining increases the pressure on the body, which can lead to injuries such as broken bones or joint pain. Injuries can also occur when the exercise pose is incorrect or the intensity of movement is suddenly increased.
Weakened immune system
Overtraining without enough rest and recovery time can weaken the immune system.
Difficulty sleeping
Sleep plays an important role in recovery from exercise. Exercising regularly helps improve sleep quality, but if you exercise too much, the body will increase the secretion of the hormone cortisol - a stress hormone that can disrupt circadian rhythm and cause insomnia.
Severe muscle pain
A severe muscle pain that disrupts activities and exercise is a sign that the body is exercising too much or increasing the intensity of exercise too quickly. To prevent this, you should choose an exercise that suits your physical condition and gradually increase the intensity. At the same time, take time to recover and support the body with nutrition, drinking water and reasonable sleep.
