#103: Overtraining and Overreaching

Category: Health
Duration: 00:00:00

Description:

In this episode, Andrea, Eric, and Brad sit down for an in-depth discussion on overtraining and overreaching. The coaches conversation is packed with valuable insights and information relevant to all strength and physique athletes, competitors and noncompetitors alike.

What is the clinical definition of overtraining syndrome? What is the likelihood that a strength or physique athlete will meet this clinical definition? What is the difference between functional and nonfunctional overreaching? What verbiage can indicate that an athlete s training is too intense?

Along with thoroughly answering the above questions, the coaches give practical advice on functional overreaching. This includes: when it can be beneficial to experiment with functional overreaching, when you should not experiment with it, how long you should overreach for if you choose to do so, and strategies for temporarily lowering volume.
