From Dr. Mercola archive.
Ok, it was often said that exercising is medicine - it allows you avoid Alzheimer, live longer, improve your blood chem readings, etc. Some claim exercise is medicine because it prevents and even cures diseases. However you may be exercising too much: Some signs:
Signs of over - exercise
l. Often fatigued;
2. Short fuse
3. Heavy legs and muscles; sores that do not disappear;
4. Frequent colds and sickness;
5. You cant seem to get enough sleep.
Over exercise, over reaching nullify benefits of exercise. It may cause injuries, and even sickness
It it is the case better cut back on: l. Intensity or 2. Frequency
Types of exercise:
l. Warm up/stretching
2. High intensity/interval training - these are exercises that lets you approach your lactate level up to 80% of your pulse rate (220 - your age). The goal is to reduce the resting period between the interval. This is anaerobic exercise. This is to be done 3x a week to give chance to your body to recover - repair itself and rebuild energy
3. Core exercises - there are 29 core muscles of the legs, pelvis and abdomen. These are not be done in not less than 4 reps.
4. Strength training - you need to slow down when doing this.
Signs you are over exercising
Modern exercise regimen prescribes l5 to 30 minutes of exercise rather than 1 hour of slow aero exercise
