AnimalNutt unfunny no punchline jokes are supposed to be unexpecting not be expecting everyone who read this comment was expecting it to go bad in someway and it did you need to do the unexpected with jokes that’s what makes them funny
Exactly! They will lift a couple dumbbells during a lazy one hour session a couple times a week and convince themselves that if they do more they're over training.
You can't give a general answer, of course it's subjective. A 20 year old who exercises regularly can train much more and more intensive than a 40 year old who didn't exercise much in his life, and the same amount of exercise would be detrimental for him. Following some general advice without listening to your own body often leads to overtraining.
I use to work out 5-6 times a week in the gym after a while my body got tired so I left. I gained weight when I stopped because my body was so use to burning calories everyday . Now I workout 2-3 a week with a healthy diet. Been in my best shape and feel strong
I know I'm not the only one that feels some kind of way if I don't do my exercise for a day, am I right guys? (Haven't missed a day but thinking about makes me feel a way)
5 hours a week? That is preposterous. The CDC is taking the average of humans today, which is not an indication of anything. Average humans today are lazier and eat more calories than our bodies are intended to. Basically, that number has nothing to do with original average human health necessity, which I suspect is much higher than the current situation and/or recommendation.
Chad B I love how its strongly implied that over 5hrs a week is "too much exercise". Why Tech Insider would decide to emphasize the so called dangers of execessive exercise instead of real issues like obesity is beyond me. The problems brought up in the video mainly affect professional top athletes, which is a fraction of the population. Quite frankly this is just spreading harmful dissinformation imo
The CDC's recommendation is a minimum, Tech Insider didn't communicate that very well. 5hrs a week of moderate exercise won't make anyone fit or healthy, but it might keep them from becoming morbidly obese.
This shit is no joke. I went through a period of exercise addiction that nearly put me in the hospital 🏥 🚑. Your body and brain clearly need rest to recuperate.
Omg same idk I started working out strenuously since past 2 years but now I am seeing some complications like my migraine got worst and I feel really lazy and I get anxious if I do not exercise every day but now I am recovering and I am feeling better day to day I even contacted a professional doctor and he just told me to do less moderate exercises 5 times per week and trust me I didn't gain weight I am perfectly healthy now and strenuous exercise also helped me worsened my eating disorders it did a lot of damage 🥲
You forgot to mention that of all the people that workout, maybe around 1% are at risk of over-training. So you average Joes have no excuse not to go hard in the gym/track/whatever it is that you do.
That's not what the video is trying to propose. It's just do that people should know that there the human body has limits. It's not so that people can find a lame excuse to be lazy. Heck, I myself am lazy and I know that it badly impacts my health and therefore I plan to exercise. Had I been the type of person who is obsessed of exercise than this video would have be vital to me. Things need to be balanced
apparently u need at least one rest day a week for 48 hours of muscle recovery. but I really feel like everyday working out for around 2 hours is "not enough". I think maybe I should plan more one day total only arms . so that's my leg rest day. but I do planks with arms as well so not sure if that's considered a rest. but can't stand the thought of doing nothing the whole day. I assume for others a rest day still require walking and stuff but for me I just lay on my ass all day, exercise is the only thing keeping me moving.
Average people can overstrain. Even by only doing 20 min - 45 minute hitt workouts everyday can lead to loss of period for a lot of women. You have to listen to your body when it asks you for rest. The rest period is also the period where your body can repair the damage that has been done from exercise.
I started my weight loss journey about a year ago everything went great until I got into a car accident I had to wear a leg cast and couldn't exercise so of course I gained weight as soon as the cast was taken off I started exercising like crazy I've been restricting my food intake and I can't focus if I miss a workout Today was supposed to be fun because it's Christmas but instead of enjoying this time of the year I went upstairs at 11:40 pm and exercise till 2:02 am I feel great after exercising and that's why I don't want to seek help because exercising makes me feel so good but when I'm not exercising I feel terrible so I exercise more and more I can't stop I feel out off control..
@Banana telekenisis I wouldn' t say that. I also started working out about a year ago and I for a very long time I worked out 1 hour every day which doesn' t seem that much but I have never really worked out before and I also ate less so it was way too much for my body. I remember one time I got up very early and I worked out even when my view got black and I felt like I was about to black out. What I want to say is that at the point where you force yourself to work out even when your body hurts like hell and only the thought of it makes you feel exhausted, you shouldn't ignore it. Your body is giving you signs and it doesn' t help to look strong and handsome when your a physical wreck and training makes you cry. I hope I didn' t offended anyone, I't different for everyone, but I hope this helps a little bit.
@Banana telekenisis people aren’t putting anyone down, only you. People are warning others of the dangers in over exercising. And look at yourself! Your encouraging someone to ignore an OBVIOUS eating/mental disorder.
I hope you've found some balance. Calisthenics with light-moderate weight lifting feels the healthiest for me for injury reduction and overall mood, but it's time consuming. Weight lifting is less time consuming but helps with mood unless hangry from overdoing it. Injuries are easier to encounter with weights too. Currently stuck lifting and want to go back to a mix of calisthenics and moderate weights.
Speaking as a distance runner, overdoing it is more to do with how you train rather than how much you train. The key to becoming successful as an endurance athlete is building stamina; this involves strengthening neuromuscular pathways and teaching your body to effectively use energy. A lot of people who overexercise forget that this doesn't include damaging your body; if you damage your body you need a rest-day. Continuing to exercise usually just screws it up more, and rest-days can be useful to build muscle.
Thank you for bringing awareness to this. I struggled with exercise addiction for 6 years and I wish there were more resources like this around at the time. The exercise addiction I experienced, and the driving factors behind it led me to having chronic back pain. Understanding how these coexist and increase complexity are so important. I now help those who live with pain following an eating disorder.
Man I needed this video . My body is saying I need to take a week or two off but my mind is trying to punish me because the habit of excercising is so ingrained in me. Now I’m ODing on UA-cam videos like this to assuage my guilt 😒.
I do 2 workouts a day. My first work out is strength training - I break a little sweat, but I'm not dying or pushing myself too hard. My second is a 10 - 15 minute HIIT workout in the evening with 15-30 second breaks in between exercises so it's 10-15 min straight of hardcore routines. That's what I define as "moderate." I skip the HIIT when I don't have time or I feel tired (always listen to your body) or I skip the gym when I'm not feeling it. I definitely love to workout because it gives me sustained energy, going more than 2-3 days without working out makes me feel tired. I may be half-addicted?
That’s not intense, I do posture exercises in the morning, intense abs in afternoon, again posture exercises in evening, weight lifting at night and this time less posture exercises before sleep and yea I get overtrained easily most of the time
I just kinda jumped right into “intense” training for me. The next few days I was sore as hell so I rested but I didn’t quit. It gets a lot better if you keep doing it, but make sure to rest
Lol, this actually happened to me last year. I've exercised too intensely and too much for my body because I thought I will get faster results. That lasted for 3-4 months until I stopped because it always feels like a chore. I thought that time that exercise is not just for me because rather than good mood and a clear mind, what it gave me are anxieties and constant chills (which I didn't realize was from intense working out). I am a perfectionist which gave me the urge to do the programs perfectly. Turns out that it only not gave me good. Just last week I'm starting again, little by little this time ·ᴗ·
bro if you just jumped right in to an intense workout from doing nothing or went heavy weights too quickly it shocked your Bodies nervous system, the shaking goes away lol i powerlift all the time and every time i deadlift or squat my max weight i shake and feel chills, it can also happen from overdoing the cardio, it goes away best you can do is figure out what weight or intensity level makes you feel like that and cut it in half for your normal workout and only go hulk once every 2 or 3 weeks
This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks. In my first month and a half or so of weightlifting I was working out like a machine, going to failure on every set and hitting PRs nearly every day, and doing it at least 6 days a week. About a week ago it really started to feel like a chore as you said, and it was feeling hard even when I just started to work out. It's weird because it feels easy and hard at the same time, like my body is really urging me to stop long before I reach failure. I'm trying to get more rest days now but my performance is still really shit.
Bro the Same happend to me ! Before I was able to work out 2 hrs mix running bike and swimming also hit ! And some day I discomposed and ended up calling 911 hahaha I was doing everything on empty stomach just coffe ! And I was working out in summer ! My buddy just didn’t like it an I almost passed out ! Went to emergency room they told me I had nothing ! I just discomposed and my body didn’t want to do anything else anymore! Now 6 months later I started doing again little by little 2 times a week and other day walking 1 hra a day and strength 2 times a week just body weight! But I learned the hard way (: Now I know that you have to listen to your body! Sometimes resting a hole week is better that put you body force !
I lost my period from over excercising. I haven’t gotten it for 5 months. Today it really hit me that I need to make a change, so now I will be excercising less and not being so intense on myself.
@@JitinMisra I was exercising for about 2-3 hours a day, I went on bike rides, running, walking, ab workouts, and swimming. Those were the main things I did when I exercised. Now I am recovered and I have my period back and I only exercise for about an hour a day, and I’m only running and biking and sometimes doing abs
Yea girl be careful I excercise a lot too and I had to dim mine down I never lost my period though and I intuitive eat I do not track calories but I did get tendonitis my knees are getting back good and stable again but it sucked my knees got so weak one time but it’s stable again and I’m not even doing half of the things your doing lol ! But be careful and dim the excercise down
@@jazzdaagreatestt3645 yes I have learned that exercise is good for you but you should never over do it, give your body rest and fuel yourself with what your body needs. I am a lot healthier now, I’m a runner so I run about 5 times a week and I always make sure to eat enough during the day to fuel myself. Rest days are very important and injuries are also very real so it’s important to take time off if you are having issues
@@aval244 your right and wow that’s awesome your a runner! I know you need to eat a lot of food . A lot of people need to be educated with this so they don’t strain their bodies and can live a very long time
I cant help but keep exercising, even though i wanna slow down. Im just always afraid if i slow down, then ill run the risk of being overweight again. And i never wanna be like that again...even at the risk of hurting myself in the process. The thought is just too scary for me...💔
I exercise everyday for 150 minutes (yoga, weight lifting, spinning). Some guys make fun of me because I don't spin fast enough. I told them I want to achieve only 400 calories while spinning. I'm glad I saw this video so I'm not feeling guilty anymore.
It is as bad, unless you are a couch potato who never leaves his couch or chair most people who doesn't workout still do get some form of exercise by their daily normal activities.
Keep grinding, but if you have joint or muscle strains you should take a step back and focus on injury prevention workouts and rest if you felt like you overtrained
I was suffering from severe depression and schizophrenia with severe suicidal tendencies. I hade to take nearly 23 different med combinations. But now l workout 4 hours a day and feel best
slimbirdy Women and men were built for different functions. Women were not built for intense physical labor as they need the fat for estrogen and child rearing.
For this to happen you have to go beyond a level that causes physical pain. If you feel good after a workout, then you're doing it right. It also depends on genetics, and current level of fitness.. I just lifted weights and did a 3 mile run right after. I feel pretty good, not even tired.
Somehow UA-cam figured out abt my issues and wanted to help me. Here I am 2 minutes into the video with what I’m dealing with. It is august very late night of august 17 2023 and so far throughout the entirety of 2023 I’ve had my menstrual cycle twice. I run/jog for about 1.5 hours a day everyday. I have mental health disorders and grew up in a household where I was always told to workout workout workout workout workout workout all the time everyday and ppl will like you. Since that’s all I’ve known my whole life it just seems natural to overwork myself. after seeing this video it’s brung a new light onto what might happen to me and really makes me want to try harder to train at least a little less. Thank you for the awareness 🙏
Sometimes when I workout too hard I get Post Workout Depression. I'll go from feeling good or neutral before and when I first start my workout, to feeling great about halfway through it and beyond. Usually ride the high for a few hours and then feel good the rest of the day. But sometimes ill experience both of these feelings and then feel an overwhelming feeling of sadness toward the end of my workout and for the next couple hours afterwards if I go too hard. It's so weird!
Your prolly pushing your workouts to long and intense… your cortisol levels are elevated and now your in cetabolic and your bodies in survival. That affects every part of your body anxiety depression low mood low sex drive flat muscles are all signs of overtraining..
@@harpreetwestonI’ve had low libido for over a year now thought it was because I’m in my 40’s but actually noticed that it started when I was training intensely consistently, now I’ve been researching this to see if this could be the culprit. Hopefully I can figure it out.
Lol I think all these facts are a bit out of context. I'm sure they're true to some degree but the amount it takes for the things mentioned in the videos would be extremely high. If you get 8-9 hours of sleep, you're more than getting enough rest for your mind/body. It only becomes detrimental when you're in pain and you keep going. Common sense dictates that you stop and take a break. But I understand many don't have that common sense, and then you become part of this video =D
All of this is true. I'm only 25 and extreme exercise has destroyed my health. I was powerlifting and then i jumped into heavy resistance training now I have so many health complications. Please anyone who even thinks they are excercising way too much. Please stop. Get help.
Most people here seem to be brainwashed though. Scared to become "fat" if they don't run 4 hours a day. Little do they know getting fat is actually really hard to do and will take years of over eating on junk food and being extremely lazy.
wait im 14 and im on a club team. I swim 2 hours on monday, wednesday and friday while i swim 3 hours on tuesday, thursday and saturday. ive been swimming for about 4 years now(Like when i was 10-11 only swam 9 hours a week and when i was 12-13 i swam 10 hours a week). But will i die soon because i swim a lot or am i ok.
Nando S Yeah, i don't know if you know but this is science. Tech insider is only the name of the channel nothing more. It includes tech, science and other things
I jogging training for 40 minutes at 6 km every three days.too much exercise is not good. But I get a balance of exercise not over exercise. But it helps my heart and blood circulation and weight.
Too much exercise also have so much disadvantages ? Me : let’s go and exercise One year later , finally decides to go out to exercise Sees the video Walk back home My exercise will be walking two steps away from my doorstep then
This video is so true . Some people do baby their bodies but there is such a thing as overdoing it . You will feel stale , no pep at all . The number one thing that many ignore is simply...... (LISTEN TO YOUR BODY)
I'm very strict when I work out, but long time ago I realized I get sick, specially when I work out with intense cardio and after I lift weights. I have a fit body and even though I'm not on diet and sometimes I quit working out for months, my body keeps fit.
Wouldn't the immune system adapt over time though? Of course if you take someone who isn't use to working out hard and then they workout hard then they will suppress it. But over the years you would think that your body would adapt and set a new "normal point" of whats intense and what isn't intense.
Exactly it’s so weird why they don’t mention this. A person who is used to running 10 KM a day and does it for lets say 2 years. If a person with no experience tries to do the same of course they are going to get injured and have heart problems but not for the first person. I exercise 5x a week and I am fine
"One unsurprising study found that light to moderate runners had a lower risk of death than people who didn’t exercise. But, in a surprising turn, some people who ran at a faster pace for more than 3 times a week had a similar risk of dying as the non-runners. So running too much, and too intensely, seems to undo some of the health benefits gained from regular running. " You should link your sources in the description next time. I agree that ultras take a massive toll on the body, but running at a faster pace increases heart damage? Doesn't make sense to me.
this is absolutely true. Olympic athletes exercise 5 hours a week and not a minute more, because if they do it too much their bones crumble like the box of cookies I'm eating right now
"Had a similar chance of dying as non runners" well well well I am pretty sure all of us have a 100 percent chance of dying. So like yeah. Unless we invent immortality.
there really isnt such thing as too much exercise back in the ancestor days you exercised to get food it didnt matter about health benefits or how you feel
I think Ellington Darden's recommendations are pretty good; read his latest book, though I don't agree with the cold water recuperation he recommends. Basically lift very intensely, slowly, and negative-focused, with plenty of recovery between workouts. I also think that cardiovascular exercise at Level 2 heart rate with occasional Level 3 and very occasional Level 4 can be good from what I've read/watched.
I remember when I was scared of eating an apple in the morning because then i’ll “ruin” my calorie deficit even though I was excercising a LOT and already under eating
And I was wondering why I always felt like having a mental break down, I was doing 5 am workout hiit or 30 min run, go to school, and do another 30 min workout immediately after school ends, sometimes after I would walk and I’d always do yoga (wich isn’t bad) Then what i would eat in the day be like: 5 am: preworkout: banana or nothing cause every calories count 7 am: a bowl of cereal whole grain with oat milk 10:5 am: a little bit of fruit or apple 12:00 am: small portions of steak, chicken or healthy noodles (really small) : sometimes when I allowed it as a cheat day I would have priobiotic yogurt as dessert 5 pm: another bowl of cereal, oats or tiny portion of what there was for dinner (smt I would only eat an apple because I thought the food would make me fat) The worst it that I didn’t lose that much weight doing that for months
Like calm down... you were litteraly 13, it's normal to not have the perfect fit healthy body.... And you never excercised before as a child and always eated badly, this is a big change.
I don’t think I’m overtraining. I’ve made a lot of progress in the last 10 months, but my sleep has gotten so much worse. I enjoy working out but there’s some days where I don’t sleep enough and it takes hours to fall asleep and I just want to give it un entirely. But I like working out and I’ve made so much progress but it’s like my body doesn’t want me to. It takes minimum an hour to fall asleep every night and I usually sleep around 7 hours. I’ll be so happy if I get 8 hours. And even if I do sleep 8 hours, I’ll get up multiple times during the night. I go to the gym every other day so 3-4 times a week. I genuinely don’t know what to do. I’m exhausted so many days and I just wish I could quit
Hey what’s happening is your prolly overtraining and not getting enough rest. When you workout your body is under stress but it’s good stress if you do it right, but what’s happening to you and has happend to me many times is that your body is staying elevated cortisol after your workout , cortisol is the stress hormone and it stays elevated when you train to hard to often without rest. You can’t sleep because your bodies flooded with cortisol and is in survival you are cetabolic ur body is literally eating away to survive. Other signs of high cortisol , low mood low sex drive flat muscles fatigue and the biggest one trouble falling asleep. You need to take some time off and relax do deep breathing exercises. Your adrenaline is pumping at night when you should be sleeping I been there it’s horrible. Listin to your body don’t push it rest and grow
I agree your body is telling you it’s stressed, take some extra rest days go for a moderate walk instead maybe instead of every other day do a week where you only do 2 days of light resistance then see how you feel.
I have been exercising 3 times in different hours a day for a whole month. And since people say that they see improvements in their body when they exercise once a day for a month, and since I don't see that much of an improvement I have been questioning my self if 3 times is too much that it doesn't help or something... Though people always say in their 'losing weight' videos: eat less and move more... I still don't know if it's wrong.
First of all you should consult a Doctor or health professional so that they can give you advice and recommendations on what you should do. When you workout you also gain muscle and bone mass while loosing fat so don't expect too much of a loss in weight. You should also take a look at your diet and how often and how much do you eat. If you have more caloric input than the amount you use, your also not going to loose those fats. Everyone is different some have high metabolism some don't. That's why it is important to consult a health professional and get advice from them as you embark on a weight loss program, also be patient the healthiest way to loose weight is to loose it gradually.
I think as long as you take a 4 day vacation to heal once a month your good. I used to life a lot and I would always come back after a 3-5 day break with massive gains.
GStar *These people are trying to warn us about the possible dangers of excessive excersize?! Wtf?!* Remember: Ignore health warnings and always overexcersize.
Zombiesplayer 420 that's not cool, sorry to hear that. Never understood why some parents force their children into doing something they clearly don't enjoy, you should be able to do what you wish to do.
Wait, but "Its okay to be smart" has a video about the human body being greatly built for long distance running, such as hundreds of kilometers, because our joints and moving mechanics make this possible. SO how tf can someone get tendonitis doing something they were naturally born to do?
Michael Khiev well , if you do it excessively it will generate that. The human body is 70% water but still you can die for drinking excessive water. And the body was made naturally for that.
The human heart has a finite number of beats, the back has a finite number of bends, the joints/tendons have a finite number of shock absorbtion etc, etc. One you reach your quota that is it. Your body will start breaking down. How many times do you see runners wearing knee bands because they're injured yet they still keep going? Because these people are addicted to excercise. They think they'll die young if they don't run. When in reality they're destroying their body at a faster rate than non runners. Including their heart.
This is exactly what happened to me u just told my whole story,🥺🥺🥺 all of this including eating disorders when i came back to school I was bullied for having a big head when i had a normal size head before, my body was messed up totally like i was feeling dizzy when i felt my head i realized it was big THAT SHOOCK ME SO MUCH THAT I WANTED TO END MY LIFE
just listen to your body. Our early ancestors were very active but most of their activity was likely low intensity (walking and such..) and probably only had to exert themselves a little bit every now and then to run away from predators or chase after prey. I imagine if you are a slow paced jogger or walker it would be hard to over do it , but if you are hitting it hard with weights and high endurance activity, probably easy to exert yourself. Sometimes I do two hours a day but it will be one hour of low intensity / low impact weights , then later in the day 1 hour of something like a hiit workout. I am very sedentary at my job so I need it.
I would literally over exercise. Injured myself twice in a year :(. I would go gym for 2 hours 5 times a weeks and play tennis for 3 hours or soccer for 2 hours. I would even workout if my body was in pain, that’s so stupid of me. Something I learned, being active is good but being over active is not . Stay safe and healthy!
2 hours of soccer and you can still lift weights 2 hours?? WTF man. Your lifting quality must be shitty and skip leg training. If you are really working hard 2 hours and do drop sets push to failure in compound movements, you are fking done for the day and the next day. Plus, 2 hours in the gym for 5 days, what the f do you train? 20 sets of curl? Effective workout just need 2-3 working sets for each body part. If you are doing 5 day split, how do u use 2 hours on a let’s say chest day? Bench 5 sets? Fly 5 sets? Flat dumbbell 5 sets? Incline 5 sets? Dip 5 sets? Later on it’s all become junk volume. This is ridiculous.
This is obviously for the weekend warrior. We humans can’t get to much exercise. As primitive hunter gatherers we hunted large game for hours every day. Sometimes not getting a kill which meant no food for the day. Or week. We still have the same body’ as our ancestors. Except now we are surrounded by food. No need to hunt and exert an enormous amount of energy to get the nutrients. Point is we are meant to move every day. We are capable of so much more our bodies endure. Use it or lose it.
True these people who say they feel shit after workout are lazy out of shape people who did one workout and feel like shit and think they overtrained lol obviously everyone is different these lazy out of shape people are just weak and lazy this video is just excuses for weak people
well i have been working out 3 hours a day every day for the past 2 weeks after having a long break of no excersize and now im getting that urge to go running and lift weights but im really sore so i dont want over do it and hurt myself but im getting really anxious because i wanna do something
I came because I have been weight lifting for 11 months first time in my life and I get angry way easier. I had no idea that over exercise is counter productive. The saying too much of anything is not good. Nice video 😎
I think most people are just out of shape and weak so when they start to workout and feel like shit lol and they say it’s overtraining when it’s just body improving
i think i overexercise at times.. right after meals i go for a light walk or do crunches and leg raises. and just woke up with entire body sore, not that my body isn't sore everyday but today's a little worse. even my hips feel like they're bruised.
oh "according to the CDC". Well the CDC is crap. If you maintain proper nutrition , you can easily work out 12 to 15 hours a week. There is such thing as training wrong though and if you do not take proper rest do not get proper nutrition, etcetera, it will be bad
Over training is very rare. It occurs mostly with elite athletes or people who take part in endurance running. The majority of people do not get enough physical activity. Not getting enough exercise is a far greater problem.
I have to because I binge eat whenever I diet I my body demands 2400-3000 calories and the only way to correct it is burning a thousand calories a day. Honestly I feel fine.
Im not over training i take proper rest times but i am addicted to it lol i get a little anxious on my rest days lol
Thats not addiction... don't let that passion fade away :)

Overlord so true
Overlord Being lazy is worse for you than overexercising.

Too much of anything is good for nothing.
SV K BULLSHIT! while it might not improve your health it still makes you fitter. Think about Triathletes that oftentimes train over 20 hours a week
K LQC it is the same for them as well. Too much of training won't help
SV K wont help getting you healthier? i agree. but it will make you fitter. you have to differentiate between fitness and health
Who gives a damn about athletes anyway.those who are not athletes don't need to overexercise.too much of anything is good for nothing. Fin.
SV K kay xD
Man, first define the terms 'intense', 'too much exercise' and 'moderate exercise'. These terms are pretty subjective.
The Seperator intense as in running near max heart rate for 30 minutes or more per day 6 days a week.
Thx man, I appreciate it. But I would like to hear it from the man himself
bluekeet what is too much exercise in a weight lifting sense
@@olumorganjoe if u feel like that u cant lift any more, take a break
You can't give a general answer, of course it's subjective.
A 20 year old who exercises regularly can train much more and more intensive than a 40 year old who didn't exercise much in his life, and the same amount of exercise would be detrimental for him. Following some general advice without listening to your own body often leads to overtraining.
I use to work out 5-6 times a week in the gym after a while my body got tired so I left. I gained weight when I stopped because my body was so use to burning calories everyday . Now I workout 2-3 a week with a healthy diet. Been in my best shape and feel strong
I know I'm not the only one that feels some kind of way if I don't do my exercise for a day, am I right guys? (Haven't missed a day but thinking about makes me feel a way)
Yeah I feel more depressed (if that's the right word) when I miss out on exercise for a day. Exercise is basically my medicine.
Yeah I feel really guilty..I do HIIT and cardio almost everyday..i’m really scared after watching this.
I take Sunday off, but other days I feel very guilty
Same
A way? What way?
5 hours a week? That is preposterous. The CDC is taking the average of humans today, which is not an indication of anything. Average humans today are lazier and eat more calories than our bodies are intended to. Basically, that number has nothing to do with original average human health necessity, which I suspect is much higher than the current situation and/or recommendation.
Chad B I love how its strongly implied that over 5hrs a week is "too much exercise". Why Tech Insider would decide to emphasize the so called dangers of execessive exercise instead of real issues like obesity is beyond me. The problems brought up in the video mainly affect professional top athletes, which is a fraction of the population. Quite frankly this is just spreading harmful dissinformation imo
The CDC's recommendation is a minimum, Tech Insider didn't communicate that very well. 5hrs a week of moderate exercise won't make anyone fit or healthy, but it might keep them from becoming morbidly obese.
I exercise more than 5 hours a week..
5 hours a day more like
Connie Mcloed um are you okay?
This shit is no joke. I went through a period of exercise addiction that nearly put me in the hospital 🏥 🚑. Your body and brain clearly need rest to recuperate.
Omg same idk I started working out strenuously since past 2 years but now I am seeing some complications like my migraine got worst and I feel really lazy and I get anxious if I do not exercise every day but now I am recovering and I am feeling better day to day I even contacted a professional doctor and he just told me to do less moderate exercises 5 times per week and trust me I didn't gain weight I am perfectly healthy now and strenuous exercise also helped me worsened my eating disorders it did a lot of damage 🥲
@@shrutisingh7837 So true girl. Glad you are doing much better 💕
Glad that you are ok, overexercising is often times overlooked.
@@haroldcruz8550 Thank you, and I absolutely agree with you. It is overlooked which is sad.
Omg .. how you handled that period ?
You forgot to mention that of all the people that workout, maybe around 1% are at risk of over-training.
So you average Joes have no excuse not to go hard in the gym/track/whatever it is that you do.
Very true!!!!
-AFAA CPT
That's not what the video is trying to propose. It's just do that people should know that there the human body has limits. It's not so that people can find a lame excuse to be lazy. Heck, I myself am lazy and I know that it badly impacts my health and therefore I plan to exercise. Had I been the type of person who is obsessed of exercise than this video would have be vital to me. Things need to be balanced
apparently u need at least one rest day a week for 48 hours of muscle recovery. but I really feel like everyday working out for around 2 hours is "not enough". I think maybe I should plan more one day total only arms . so that's my leg rest day. but I do planks with arms as well so not sure if that's considered a rest. but can't stand the thought of doing nothing the whole day. I assume for others a rest day still require walking and stuff but for me I just lay on my ass all day, exercise is the only thing keeping me moving.
Average people can overstrain. Even by only doing 20 min - 45 minute hitt workouts everyday can lead to loss of period for a lot of women. You have to listen to your body when it asks you for rest. The rest period is also the period where your body can repair the damage that has been done from exercise.
I started my weight loss journey about a year ago everything went great until I got into a car accident I had to wear a leg cast and couldn't exercise so of course I gained weight as soon as the cast was taken off I started exercising like crazy
I've been restricting my food intake and I can't focus if I miss a workout
Today was supposed to be fun because it's Christmas but instead of enjoying this time of the year I went upstairs at 11:40 pm and exercise till 2:02 am
I feel great after exercising and that's why I don't want to seek help because exercising makes me feel so good but when I'm not exercising I feel terrible so I exercise more and more I can't stop I feel out off control..
Same
@Banana telekenisis I wouldn' t say that. I also started working out about a year ago and I for a very long time I worked out 1 hour every day which doesn' t seem that much but I have never really worked out before and I also ate less so it was way too much for my body. I remember one time I got up very early and I worked out even when my view got black and I felt like I was about to black out. What I want to say is that at the point where you force yourself to work out even when your body hurts like hell and only the thought of it makes you feel exhausted, you shouldn't ignore it. Your body is giving you signs and it doesn' t help to look strong and handsome when your a physical wreck and training makes you cry. I hope I didn' t offended anyone, I't different for everyone, but I hope this helps a little bit.
@Banana telekenisis people aren’t putting anyone down, only you. People are warning others of the dangers in over exercising. And look at yourself! Your encouraging someone to ignore an OBVIOUS eating/mental disorder.
I hope you've found some balance. Calisthenics with light-moderate weight lifting feels the healthiest for me for injury reduction and overall mood, but it's time consuming. Weight lifting is less time consuming but helps with mood unless hangry from overdoing it. Injuries are easier to encounter with weights too. Currently stuck lifting and want to go back to a mix of calisthenics and moderate weights.
Speaking as a distance runner, overdoing it is more to do with how you train rather than how much you train. The key to becoming successful as an endurance athlete is building stamina; this involves strengthening neuromuscular pathways and teaching your body to effectively use energy. A lot of people who overexercise forget that this doesn't include damaging your body; if you damage your body you need a rest-day. Continuing to exercise usually just screws it up more, and rest-days can be useful to build muscle.
Thank you for bringing awareness to this. I struggled with exercise addiction for 6 years and I wish there were more resources like this around at the time. The exercise addiction I experienced, and the driving factors behind it led me to having chronic back pain. Understanding how these coexist and increase complexity are so important. I now help those who live with pain following an eating disorder.
Man I needed this video . My body is saying I need to take a week or two off but my mind is trying to punish me because the habit of excercising is so ingrained in me. Now I’m ODing on UA-cam videos like this to assuage my guilt 😒.
Lol Exactly what happens to me I feel your pain
*Tech Insider*
Green Ruby welcome to the channel
Shut up.
I do 2 workouts a day. My first work out is strength training - I break a little sweat, but I'm not dying or pushing myself too hard. My second is a 10 - 15 minute HIIT workout in the evening with 15-30 second breaks in between exercises so it's 10-15 min straight of hardcore routines. That's what I define as "moderate." I skip the HIIT when I don't have time or I feel tired (always listen to your body) or I skip the gym when I'm not feeling it. I definitely love to workout because it gives me sustained energy, going more than 2-3 days without working out makes me feel tired. I may be half-addicted?
Noo
30 min a day isnt that much
That’s not intense, I do posture exercises in the morning, intense abs in afternoon, again posture exercises in evening, weight lifting at night and this time less posture exercises before sleep and yea I get overtrained easily most of the time
@@suhailms3674 its not a competition lol
@@sharkycz9540 Well I wanted to let him know that what he thinks is NOT overtraining but yea it sometimes depends on genetics
That is an excuse for people that kinda want to workout, but they aren't motivated enough.
I exercised too much I get cold and then hot it's not a lie I'm having withdraws this video is very imformative
HandsomeAzn Man You need to focus more on getting the proper vitamins/minerals and micronutrients in your diet.
Aahh I cannot stop a single day without exercising, I'm really addicted to it
HandsomeAzn Man do you think 40 minutes a day of home workouts for a 14y/o girl is excessive
@@kidanyefru5293 depends of the intensity..
I just kinda jumped right into “intense” training for me. The next few days I was sore as hell so I rested but I didn’t quit. It gets a lot better if you keep doing it, but make sure to rest
Have you ever done 2 workouts per day?
Its called overtraining. Its where you train at a rate greater than your ability to recover.
Lol, this actually happened to me last year. I've exercised too intensely and too much for my body because I thought I will get faster results. That lasted for 3-4 months until I stopped because it always feels like a chore. I thought that time that exercise is not just for me because rather than good mood and a clear mind, what it gave me are anxieties and constant chills (which I didn't realize was from intense working out). I am a perfectionist which gave me the urge to do the programs perfectly. Turns out that it only not gave me good.
Just last week I'm starting again, little by little this time ·ᴗ·
bro if you just jumped right in to an intense workout from doing nothing or went heavy weights too quickly it shocked your Bodies nervous system, the shaking goes away lol i powerlift all the time and every time i deadlift or squat my max weight i shake and feel chills, it can also happen from overdoing the cardio, it goes away best you can do is figure out what weight or intensity level makes you feel like that and cut it in half for your normal workout and only go hulk once every 2 or 3 weeks
@@slicktrips In my case I think it happened from too much HIIT cardio workouts. Thanks for the tips!
This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks. In my first month and a half or so of weightlifting I was working out like a machine, going to failure on every set and hitting PRs nearly every day, and doing it at least 6 days a week. About a week ago it really started to feel like a chore as you said, and it was feeling hard even when I just started to work out. It's weird because it feels easy and hard at the same time, like my body is really urging me to stop long before I reach failure. I'm trying to get more rest days now but my performance is still really shit.
Bro the Same happend to me ! Before I was able to work out 2 hrs mix running bike and swimming also hit ! And some day I discomposed and ended up calling 911 hahaha I was doing everything on empty stomach just coffe ! And I was working out in summer ! My buddy just didn’t like it an I almost passed out ! Went to emergency room they told me I had nothing ! I just discomposed and my body didn’t want to do anything else anymore! Now 6 months later I started doing again little by little 2 times a week and other day walking 1 hra a day and strength 2 times a week just body weight!
But I learned the hard way (:
Now I know that you have to listen to your body! Sometimes resting a hole week is better that put you body force !
Even going for a walk feels like a chore for me
As soon as im done working out i just want more, I’m so addicted to the feeling of tearing the muscle
I lost my period from over excercising. I haven’t gotten it for 5 months. Today it really hit me that I need to make a change, so now I will be excercising less and not being so intense on myself.
How much were you exercising and how long?
@@JitinMisra I was exercising for about 2-3 hours a day, I went on bike rides, running, walking, ab workouts, and swimming. Those were the main things I did when I exercised. Now I am recovered and I have my period back and I only exercise for about an hour a day, and I’m only running and biking and sometimes doing abs
Yea girl be careful I excercise a lot too and I had to dim mine down I never lost my period though and I intuitive eat I do not track calories but I did get tendonitis my knees are getting back good and stable again but it sucked my knees got so weak one time but it’s stable again and I’m not even doing half of the things your doing lol ! But be careful and dim the excercise down
@@jazzdaagreatestt3645 yes I have learned that exercise is good for you but you should never over do it, give your body rest and fuel yourself with what your body needs. I am a lot healthier now, I’m a runner so I run about 5 times a week and I always make sure to eat enough during the day to fuel myself. Rest days are very important and injuries are also very real so it’s important to take time off if you are having issues
@@aval244 your right and wow that’s awesome your a runner! I know you need to eat a lot of food . A lot of people need to be educated with this so they don’t strain their bodies and can live a very long time
I cant help but keep exercising, even though i wanna slow down.
Im just always afraid if i slow down, then ill run the risk of being overweight again.
And i never wanna be like that again...even at the risk of hurting myself in the process.
The thought is just too scary for me...💔
I aim for 5 hours a week. 30min Cardio/30min Strength training. I sleep better, lowers my blood pressure, and helps with anxiety.
Does it also help in loosing weight?
Yes but diet is more important for weight loss x@@sonalsharma8652
I exercise everyday for 150 minutes (yoga, weight lifting, spinning). Some guys make fun of me because I don't spin fast enough. I told them I want to achieve only 400 calories while spinning. I'm glad I saw this video so I'm not feeling guilty anymore.
Spinning means what jump rope huh ?
@@versatileshankar3010 cycling
I rather workout “too much” than not at all . The grind don’t stop !
It is as bad, unless you are a couch potato who never leaves his couch or chair most people who doesn't workout still do get some form of exercise by their daily normal activities.
Keep grinding, but if you have joint or muscle strains you should take a step back and focus on injury prevention workouts and rest if you felt like you overtrained
I was suffering from severe depression and schizophrenia with severe suicidal tendencies. I hade to take nearly 23 different med combinations. But now l workout 4 hours a day and feel best
I know what you mean! I'm bipolar and working out really stabilizes me. The dopamine from running reverses my depression.
thanks to the excercise
I haven’t had a rest day in 2 years and I’m perfectly fine.
RIP Von
It's beacause of your quality food and environment
4 years in and still fine
I remember when I was in 7th grade I exercised 5 days out of the week a lot, and I stopped ovulating
Joni Kupolati - exactly, there’s a whole pile of health issues that happen and people just ignore it and push harder until their bodies fall apart.
Women weren’t built for intense labor. Men were, we aren’t built for the same functions. Women were made to nurture, not labor, hunting or building
slimbirdy Women and men were built for different functions. Women were not built for intense physical labor as they need the fat for estrogen and child rearing.
Ovulating? Never heard of her
Hai how much time did you exercised everyday? Because Im in your same age group and exercise everyday I need to know if what I'm doing is wrong?
OMG I went to the gym everyday for the last 4 days, ran for half an hour and now my heart rate is so high in bed. I can feel my heart
You gotta be careful with that, maybe cut caffiene if you want to continue, my uncle has the same fast heart rate
For this to happen you have to go beyond a level that causes physical pain. If you feel good after a workout, then you're doing it right. It also depends on genetics, and current level of fitness.. I just lifted weights and did a 3 mile run right after. I feel pretty good, not even tired.
Lol, high knees are never fun
Somehow UA-cam figured out abt my issues and wanted to help me. Here I am 2 minutes into the video with what I’m dealing with. It is august very late night of august 17 2023 and so far throughout the entirety of 2023 I’ve had my menstrual cycle twice.
I run/jog for about 1.5 hours a day everyday. I have mental health disorders and grew up in a household where I was always told to workout workout workout workout workout workout all the time everyday and ppl will like you. Since that’s all I’ve known my whole life it just seems natural to overwork myself. after seeing this video it’s brung a new light onto what might happen to me and really makes me want to try harder to train at least a little less. Thank you for the awareness 🙏
I bet their are people here LOOKING FOR EXUSES NOT TO EXERCISE
Sometimes when I workout too hard I get Post Workout Depression. I'll go from feeling good or neutral before and when I first start my workout, to feeling great about halfway through it and beyond. Usually ride the high for a few hours and then feel good the rest of the day. But sometimes ill experience both of these feelings and then feel an overwhelming feeling of sadness toward the end of my workout and for the next couple hours afterwards if I go too hard. It's so weird!
Bcs you’re weak
I feel the same love. Sadness
It’s like coming down from drugs, I guess the dopamine is fading away so depression sets in? Don’t quote me.
Your prolly pushing your workouts to long and intense… your cortisol levels are elevated and now your in cetabolic and your bodies in survival. That affects every part of your body anxiety depression low mood low sex drive flat muscles are all signs of overtraining..
@@harpreetwestonI’ve had low libido for over a year now thought it was because I’m in my 40’s but actually noticed that it started when I was training intensely consistently, now I’ve been researching this to see if this could be the culprit. Hopefully I can figure it out.
Lol I think all these facts are a bit out of context.
I'm sure they're true to some degree but the amount it takes for the things mentioned in the videos would be extremely high.
If you get 8-9 hours of sleep, you're more than getting enough rest for your mind/body.
It only becomes detrimental when you're in pain and you keep going. Common sense dictates that you stop and take a break.
But I understand many don't have that common sense, and then you become part of this video =D
Addictions have nothing to do with common sense.
Good one. 💪👍
I’m pretty sure not exercising is a bigger problem for most people than over exercising 🤔
Should do a video about what no exercise does to people
yes, no exercise literally destroys health of body and brain.
this is a hard one to swallow as someone who is more and more feeling addicted to heavy workouts.
All of this is true. I'm only 25 and extreme exercise has destroyed my health. I was powerlifting and then i jumped into heavy resistance training now I have so many health complications. Please anyone who even thinks they are excercising way too much. Please stop. Get help.
Most people here seem to be brainwashed though. Scared to become "fat" if they don't run 4 hours a day.
Little do they know getting fat is actually really hard to do and will take years of over eating on junk food and being extremely lazy.
I think I have an addiction. I do exercise every day
me too
Me too- I think I might only start exercising 3 times a week because I don’t want this to be me-
Now i know how to maintain proper exercise
wait im 14 and im on a club team. I swim 2 hours on monday, wednesday and friday while i swim 3 hours on tuesday, thursday and saturday. ive been swimming for about 4 years now(Like when i was 10-11 only swam 9 hours a week and when i was 12-13 i swam 10 hours a week).

My hamster does exercise
cool
@@michalbekker5447 2 years later lol
I'm very strict when I work out, but long time ago I realized I get sick, specially when I work out with intense cardio and after I lift weights. I have a fit body and even though I'm not on diet and sometimes I quit working out for months, my body keeps fit.
Wouldn't the immune system adapt over time though? Of course if you take someone who isn't use to working out hard and then they workout hard then they will suppress it. But over the years you would think that your body would adapt and set a new "normal point" of whats intense and what isn't intense.
Exactly it’s so weird why they don’t mention this. A person who is used to running 10 KM a day and does it for lets say 2 years. If a person with no experience tries to do the same of course they are going to get injured and have heart problems but not for the first person. I exercise 5x a week and I am fine
"One unsurprising study found that light to moderate runners had a lower risk of death than people who didn’t exercise. But, in a surprising turn, some people who ran at a faster pace for more than 3 times a week had a similar risk of dying as the non-runners. So running too much, and too intensely, seems to undo some of the health benefits gained from regular running.
"
You should link your sources in the description next time. I agree that ultras take a massive toll on the body, but running at a faster pace increases heart damage? Doesn't make sense to me.
this is absolutely true. Olympic athletes exercise 5 hours a week and not a minute more, because if they do it too much their bones crumble like the box of cookies I'm eating right now
lol
Been doing 2 hours daily and I'm exhausted tbh.
What about bodybuilding?
Lucas Nicoara it the same
Its worse
Steroids
Its the same. In the end its all stress on your body. 4x a week weight lifting 1x endurance should be good
Duterte Sempai Who even mencioned steroids? Just plain natty bodybuilding.
This video isnt meant for the large majority of people. Even if you do workout a few hours every few days isnt shit.
whenever I'm not exercising I feel like I'm missing out on so much adrenaline 😅
"Had a similar chance of dying as non runners" well well well I am pretty sure all of us have a 100 percent chance of dying.
So like yeah.
Unless we invent immortality.
Maybe he mean lifespan
Lol
there really isnt such thing as too much exercise back in the ancestor days you exercised to get food it didnt matter about health benefits or how you feel
Once again the law of diminishing returns
List your sources
Thank you exactly
Yes , ur right . In past year I have made routine of daily exercise but whenever I leave only single day I used to remain upset whole day .
I think Ellington Darden's recommendations are pretty good; read his latest book, though I don't agree with the cold water recuperation he recommends. Basically lift very intensely, slowly, and negative-focused, with plenty of recovery between workouts.
I also think that cardiovascular exercise at Level 2 heart rate with occasional Level 3 and very occasional Level 4 can be good from what I've read/watched.
I remember when I was scared of eating an apple in the morning because then i’ll “ruin” my calorie deficit even though I was excercising a LOT and already under eating
And I was wondering why I always felt like having a mental break down, I was doing 5 am workout hiit or 30 min run, go to school, and do another 30 min workout immediately after school ends, sometimes after I would walk and I’d always do yoga (wich isn’t bad)
Then what i would eat in the day be like:
5 am: preworkout: banana or nothing cause every calories count
7 am: a bowl of cereal whole grain with oat milk
10:5 am: a little bit of fruit or apple
12:00 am: small portions of steak, chicken or healthy noodles (really small)
: sometimes when I allowed it as a cheat day I would have priobiotic yogurt as dessert
5 pm: another bowl of cereal, oats or tiny portion of what there was for dinner (smt I would only eat an apple because I thought the food would make me fat)
The worst it that I didn’t lose that much weight doing that for months
Like calm down... you were litteraly 13, it's normal to not have the perfect fit healthy body.... And you never excercised before as a child and always eated badly, this is a big change.
I don’t think I’m overtraining. I’ve made a lot of progress in the last 10 months, but my sleep has gotten so much worse. I enjoy working out but there’s some days where I don’t sleep enough and it takes hours to fall asleep and I just want to give it un entirely. But I like working out and I’ve made so much progress but it’s like my body doesn’t want me to. It takes minimum an hour to fall asleep every night and I usually sleep around 7 hours. I’ll be so happy if I get 8 hours. And even if I do sleep 8 hours, I’ll get up multiple times during the night. I go to the gym every other day so 3-4 times a week. I genuinely don’t know what to do. I’m exhausted so many days and I just wish I could quit
Hey what’s happening is your prolly overtraining and not getting enough rest. When you workout your body is under stress but it’s good stress if you do it right, but what’s happening to you and has happend to me many times is that your body is staying elevated cortisol after your workout , cortisol is the stress hormone and it stays elevated when you train to hard to often without rest. You can’t sleep because your bodies flooded with cortisol and is in survival you are cetabolic ur body is literally eating away to survive. Other signs of high cortisol , low mood low sex drive flat muscles fatigue and the biggest one trouble falling asleep. You need to take some time off and relax do deep breathing exercises. Your adrenaline is pumping at night when you should be sleeping I been there it’s horrible. Listin to your body don’t push it rest and grow
I agree your body is telling you it’s stressed, take some extra rest days go for a moderate walk instead maybe instead of every other day do a week where you only do 2 days of light resistance then see how you feel.
Eat workout sleep.
Listen to your body.
Simplify your life.
Perfect
Great video! I do sports but I'm afraid of doing less. With these information I feel good the way I wanna lose weight
No days off has always been my philosophy & it works just fine 💪🏼
I have been exercising 3 times in different hours a day for a whole month.
And since people say that they see improvements in their body when they exercise once a day for a month, and since I don't see that much of an improvement I have been questioning my self if 3 times is too much that it doesn't help or something...
Though people always say in their 'losing weight' videos: eat less and move more...
I still don't know if it's wrong.
First of all you should consult a Doctor or health professional so that they can give you advice and recommendations on what you should do. When you workout you also gain muscle and bone mass while loosing fat so don't expect too much of a loss in weight. You should also take a look at your diet and how often and how much do you eat. If you have more caloric input than the amount you use, your also not going to loose those fats. Everyone is different some have high metabolism some don't. That's why it is important to consult a health professional and get advice from them as you embark on a weight loss program, also be patient the healthiest way to loose weight is to loose it gradually.
I think as long as you take a 4 day vacation to heal once a month your good. I used to life a lot and I would always come back after a 3-5 day break with massive gains.

Me but this video makes me wanna exercise :)
Joanna Wee how can you live like that? Not judging, but it is quite nice to go outside and find a suitable hobby or two. :)
Owwwy i want to do a sport but my family forces me to do learn how to read music and also play :(
Zombiesplayer 420 that's not cool, sorry to hear that. Never understood why some parents force their children into doing something they clearly don't enjoy, you should be able to do what you wish to do.
Now the people from "My 600lb Life" will use this as an excuse to tell Dr. NOW 🤣🤣🤣
Wait, but "Its okay to be smart" has a video about the human body being greatly built for long distance running, such as hundreds of kilometers, because our joints and moving mechanics make this possible. SO how tf can someone get tendonitis doing something they were naturally born to do?
Michael Khiev well , if you do it excessively it will generate that. The human body is 70% water but still you can die for drinking excessive water. And the body was made naturally for that.
Michael Khiev because of higher body fat. Obviously someone lean can run without tendon issues versus someone 250 pounds
The human heart has a finite number of beats, the back has a finite number of bends, the joints/tendons have a finite number of shock absorbtion etc, etc. One you reach your quota that is it. Your body will start breaking down.
How many times do you see runners wearing knee bands because they're injured yet they still keep going? Because these people are addicted to excercise. They think they'll die young if they don't run. When in reality they're destroying their body at a faster rate than non runners. Including their heart.
walking is amazing...
This is exactly what happened to me u just told my whole story,🥺🥺🥺 all of this including eating disorders when i came back to school I was bullied for having a big head when i had a normal size head before, my body was messed up totally like i was feeling dizzy when i felt my head i realized it was big THAT SHOOCK ME SO MUCH THAT I WANTED TO END MY LIFE
just listen to your body. Our early ancestors were very active but most of their activity was likely low intensity (walking and such..) and probably only had to exert themselves a little bit every now and then to run away from predators or chase after prey. I imagine if you are a slow paced jogger or walker it would be hard to over do it , but if you are hitting it hard with weights and high endurance activity, probably easy to exert yourself. Sometimes I do two hours a day but it will be one hour of low intensity / low impact weights , then later in the day 1 hour of something like a hiit workout. I am very sedentary at my job so I need it.
I’m 13 and I way over did it on my workout, my head feels like it’s on fire and my shoulder hurts
I would literally over exercise. Injured myself twice in a year :(.
I would go gym for 2 hours 5 times a weeks and play tennis for 3 hours or soccer for 2 hours.
I would even workout if my body was in pain, that’s so stupid of me.
Something I learned, being active is good but being over active is not .
Stay safe and healthy!
2 hours of soccer and you can still lift weights 2 hours?? WTF man. Your lifting quality must be shitty and skip leg training. If you are really working hard 2 hours and do drop sets push to failure in compound movements, you are fking done for the day and the next day.
Plus, 2 hours in the gym for 5 days, what the f do you train? 20 sets of curl? Effective workout just need 2-3 working sets for each body part. If you are doing 5 day split, how do u use 2 hours on a let’s say chest day? Bench 5 sets? Fly 5 sets? Flat dumbbell 5 sets? Incline 5 sets? Dip 5 sets? Later on it’s all become junk volume.
This is ridiculous.
The human body is capable of doing more than we think. It's better to aim high and miss, than aim low and hit. Exceed your expectations, etc., etc.
This is obviously for the weekend warrior. We humans can’t get to much exercise. As primitive hunter gatherers we hunted large game for hours every day. Sometimes not getting a kill which meant no food for the day. Or week. We still have the same body’ as our ancestors. Except now we are surrounded by food. No need to hunt and exert an enormous amount of energy to get the nutrients. Point is we are meant to move every day. We are capable of so much more our bodies endure. Use it or lose it.
True these people who say they feel shit after workout are lazy out of shape people who did one workout and feel like shit and think they overtrained lol obviously everyone is different these lazy out of shape people are just weak and lazy this video is just excuses for weak people
well i have been working out 3 hours a day every day for the past 2 weeks after having a long break of no excersize and now im getting that urge to go running and lift weights but im really sore so i dont want over do it and hurt myself but im getting really anxious because i wanna do something
I feel you. I have the same problem too.
The majority of people will never come close to an over trained state, push yourselves people.
What is risk of dying? Aren't we all gonna die?
IKR omg more people smoke cigarettes in the world rather then run 🤷🏼♂️ Just my opinion though
I came because I have been weight lifting for 11 months first time in my life and I get angry way easier. I had no idea that over exercise is counter productive. The saying too much of anything is not good. Nice video 😎
Two words: Ronnie Coleman.
Dude can never walk anymore

Me: ... mh ok... I guess I understand?
Dad: you have no exerci-
Me: *shows this*
Thought this was a channel about Tech.

Sounds like pure conjecture.

Run Barry....Run!
I'm 14 and I have been working out six times a week for the past 2 years💪
I think most people are just out of shape and weak so when they start to workout and feel like shit lol and they say it’s overtraining when it’s just body improving
I swear to god if I see "Finally a good reason to not workout" excuses.I'm gonna...
why does that upset you lol, each to their own
@@ef3052 AMEN! EXACTLY!
Sometimes you have to work out according to how much your body can handle and sometimes you should have a few days of rest but not too much
I do 5h a day
3h long distance walking and 2h heavy weigh lifting.
At least 4days a week and its been a month since
i think i overexercise at times.. right after meals i go for a light walk or do crunches and leg raises. and just woke up with entire body sore, not that my body isn't sore everyday but today's a little worse. even my hips feel like they're bruised.
oh "according to the CDC". Well the CDC is crap. If you maintain proper nutrition , you can easily work out 12 to 15 hours a week. There is such thing as training wrong though and if you do not take proper rest do not get proper nutrition, etcetera, it will be bad

Over training is very rare. It occurs mostly with elite athletes or people who take part in endurance running. The majority of people do not get enough physical activity. Not getting enough exercise is a far greater problem.
Im doing exercise 4 hour in a day
I have to because I binge eat whenever I diet I my body demands 2400-3000 calories and the only way to correct it is burning a thousand calories a day. Honestly I feel fine.
