hot tub as solution

[edit]

I not sure if lactic acid has anything to do with overtraining. And thus really not sure about the hot tub solution. See Delayed onset muscle soreness. --Janto 11:38, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, is there any proof that any of the proposed solutions work? --Janto 20:56, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
hot tub is no longer in there. the proposed solutions all have their place, however given different causes of overtraining not all will be aplicable. for instance the CNS can be overtrained and not neccesarily the musculature and vice versa. StrengthCoach 00:00, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm just very sceptical whether things like ice baths and contrast showers will have any real effect - even if only the musculature is overtrained. Seperating it into CNS and musculature related solutions (if that has any meaning) would also be helpful. Do you know of any studies conducted? --Janto 15:12, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
...[cooling therapy] has no dramatic effect, but some minor effects on reducing exercise-induced muscle edema in the subacute phase and relieving the extent of the damaged muscle cells. - Eur J Appl Physiol. 2003 Mar;89(1):53-62. Epub 2003 Jan 14.
Some studies cite that ice therapy has negligible effect on the indicators of muscle damage.
DOMS should not be used as a reliable indicator for overtraining. StrengthCoach 17:01, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Good. Can you add some of that info? It would be nice if the article was less pseudoscientific. I reworked it a bit. --Janto 15:07, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]


I deleted the 'decreased sexual performance' symptom. For all my knowledge on this subject, I have never specifically encountered this symptom reported or measured in any scientific study. It has not (to my knowledge) been scientifically verified. It was probably put up there by someone as a joke?!ToyotaPanasonic 12:27, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For "all your knowledge", you've overlooked the link between lowered testosterone levels and overtraining. Overtraining's effects of sexual performance is well documented. (Roberts AC, McClure RD, Weiner RI, Brooks GA. (1993). Overtraining affects male reproductive status. Fertility and Sterility, 60, 686-692)
Perhaps before simply removing content, you should discuss it here first. I'm adding it back. Yankees76 20:08, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure that NONE of the "SPA treatments" actually do anything with regard to overtraining. Yes, these may help reduce DOMS and make an athlete feel better mentally but they're no substitute for rest. Should the spa treatment section even be in the article with no source? http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/487870 --76.125.198.214 (talk) 15:02, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. There needs to be a source for the effectiveness of spa therapy. As far as I know, none of these treatments are proven to aid in overtraining recover. Cpyder 20:00, 2 March 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cpyder (talkcontribs)

Effects

[edit]

I can't believe overtraining taxes your body that bad without specifically giving you signals that you are overtrained and need to rest more. Look at all those effects implied, it's outright scary.. makes me wonder about those guys like bodybuilders training hours everyday, or heavy labor jobs like removal firms where there's only two consecutive days of rest between five of constant "overtraining", how in the hell do they manage ? 213.112.206.70 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 13:49, 12 July 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Would overtraining also result in Chronic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compartment_syndrome ? Are massages helpful in reducing the high pressures in Chronic Compartment Syndrome, until the muscles heal and water retention goes down? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maschwab (talkcontribs) 14:40, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The section on rowers has nothing to do with "Overtraining"

[edit]

It starts off great, by telling us the three components that rowers need. And then, just as we're about to get into the crux of how they manage to avert overtraining, it stops! It doesn't even say whether they suffer from overtraining or not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.7.89.32 (talk) 06:56, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It does come across as an unfinished section, so I have removed it. If someone would like to expand it to actually discuss overtraining, please feel free to do so and then return it to the article. For now, it wasn't doing any good. Deli nk (talk) 14:33, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Recovery

[edit]

Although yes, there are some importance of exercising and the benefits are great for ones overall health. You have to make sure you are not overtraining. One way to do this is by having rest days through your workout week. Training six days a week and resting one day a week for example. It is vert important that you give your body time to recover ad rest because your muscle don't grow when you are working out, but in fact when you are giving them time to rest.When working out or doing any kind of weight lifting you are micro tears inside your muscles, and if you do not give those micro-tears a chance to heal properly then they start to looking feel inflated, swollen and exhausted. Not allowing yourself to get a proper rest period and continuation in constant exercising then leads to overtrain syndrome. <ref>Roberts, Caroline. “Why Workout Recovery Is Even More Important than Your Workout.” CNET, CNET, 28 July 2019, www.cnet.com/health/why-workout-recovery-is-so-important/. /ref> — Preceding unsigned comment added by DijaINFS315 (talkcontribs) 23:33, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
