I always like to lecture people about habits. My style of helping you comes from integrating knowledge based on statistics of working with people like you for over ten years. Your lifestyle, Job/Home/Fun, health, relationships.In working with professional Athletes to Joe blow mechanic, we all have habits that will effect our lives. The only difference being, the habits we create for our lives.
The other aspect of the knowledge I share is based on personal experience or my own personal habits. I will sometimes use my self as a model to help you as well. Today I am talking about "over training" or working out too much or the all mighty work out addiction. As a whole, most of us don't give this much thought. We don't see someone and think " I think they have a serious problem, they work out too much." It sounds silly to even type it. Sometimes however it does become a problem. I'm not going preach today. I am just going to put up somethings to help you identify some signs of over training..
1. Frequent injuries/ illness
Too much training and weaken your immune system and not allow the body to recover from exercise.
2. Inability to fall asleep/ or wake up fully rested.
3. Mood disturbances ( short temper, depression, OCD, isolation)
4. Loss of muscle mass due to lack of caloric intake and rest/repair.+ loss of appetite
5. Inability to focus and plan things
6. Constant feeling of being physically and mentally tired
7. Chronic muscle and joint pain.

This list is based on my own personal experience with over training. The symptoms listed do further corroborate various studies into the effects of over training.
