Thread: Overtraining

and full recovery may take a number of weeks or months

this must be true, because i stopped training as much to reduce my overtraining to a normal routine....and it doesnt feel right...im weaker now, psychologically fucked up in the head...like confused/frustrated/sad/depressed -- i feel like ive lost a lot of time and muscle that i could have had...but ive been constantly fuckin my body up and not letting it repair.

I know what you mean, bro. I don't feel right taking days off training. I feel like I'm missing out on something. Like I'm gonna lose some of what I've worked so hard to get. It's deep in my psyche and I can't shake it. Intellectually, I KNOW I'm supposed to take breaks but I still don't feel good about it.
