ARE YOU OVERTRAINING? 😱 Contrary to popular belief MORE is not always BETTER. 😅 Rest and recovery are two very IMPORTANT parts of improving in the gym and getting the results you seek. If you go too hard for two long, you’ll get yourself in a situation of diminishing returns. This meaning that you’re going into your training sessions weaker and more depleted than usual. Overtime this can have an extremely negative effect on both physical and mental performance. It can also be very discouraging. 😭 ——————————————————— For many of us (especially athletes) it can be very difficult to pump the brakes on our training. Breaks are necessary in order to continue to get stronger and improve, though. When you exercise, you’re, to some degree, breaking parts of your body down. That’s OK because the stimulus you’re imposing on your body is compelling it to build you back up stronger than ever so that it becomes easier for you to do that work again later and begin to progress further. Basically rest and recovery allow your body to rise to the demands you keep placing upon it. ——————————————————— Too much work without any recovery can lead to disaster in the gym! 😵 Always get adequate rest DAYS in. If sitting around and doing absolutely nothing is difficult for you, you can always make it an active rest day where you concentrate on stretching, foam rolling, and low-intensity cardio like walking. Just don’t overdo it. It should be a relaxing effort compared to your usual workouts. 🤓 ——————————————————— #RadiantEvoFit #dmv #dmvtrainer #fairfax #merrifield #personaltrainer #personaltraining #overtraining #overtrainingsyndrome #rest #recovery #activerest #activerestdays #restdays #weightloss #fatloss #health #fit #fitness #blackgirlfitness #mentalhealth #workout #exercise #fitspo #cardio #lowintensitycardio #liss #stretching #foamrolling #smr

‪You did it! 🙌🏾 You’ve finally reached your weight loss goal. It’s time to stop working and go back to whatever you did before you started this journey, right? 😅 Well, not exactly. 😩 Whatever you were doing before allowed you to maintain the weight you were at in the past, but now that you’re at a new weight, something has to change. 🤷🏽‍♀️ ——————————————————— One of the reasons people find themselves regaining fat after weight loss, is because they forget to account for the change in their metabolism. Weighing less means you burn less calories both at rest and during activity because there’s just less of you to worry about. You simply can’t go back to eating and exercising the way you did before the weight loss. The momentum must be sustained in order to be maintained. 🤓 ——————————————————— First of all, weighing less means you burn less calories doing the same things you used to do. This means that your previous diet (pattern of eating/caloric intake) will no longer sustain your new weight. In fact, more likely than not, it will cause you to gain weight faster than you lost it. And if you’re not weight training and getting enough protein, a lot of that is just going to be stored as fat. 🙃 ——————————————————— If that’s something you’d like to avoid, you need to establish new maintenance calories (14-16x body weight in lbs) and continue to get stronger in the gym via both cardio AND strength training. The change you’ve just made is a lifestyle change. It’s not going to stick if you don’t have a plan you can apply each day. ——————————————————— #RadiantEvoFit #dmv #dmvtrainer #fairfax #merrifield #personaltrainer #personaltraining #weightloss #exercise #cardio #cleaneating #nutrition #getfit #muscle #strong #weightlossjourney #fitnessaddict #instafit #gymlife #fitnessmodel #healthychoices #active #determination #instahealth #weights #train #protein #iifym #fatloss #fatlossjourney
