Overtraining Symptoms: Gaining Weight While Working Out
Gaining weight while working out can be a sign of overtraining, but it's important to note that weight gain can also be due to other factors such as changes in diet or hormonal imbalances.
- Overtraining occurs when your body is not given enough time to recover between workouts, leading to fatigue, decreased performance, and an increased risk of injury.
- Other symptoms of overtraining can include decreased appetite, difficulty sleeping, and a weakened immune system.
- If you suspect that you may be overtraining, it's important to take a break from your workouts and give your body the time it needs to recover.
- Focus on getting enough rest, eating a balanced diet, and incorporating low-intensity activities such as yoga or walking into your routine.
- If your symptoms persist, it's important to seek medical advice to rule out any underlying health issues.
