It got that bad that my body must have been use to it because no such thing as feeling burnt out etc I was enjoying it, now is a different story as this past week I feel like I have put on weight yet my training has slowed down a bit. Yes am noticing my workouts are not as strong as what they have been and yes im feeling very irritable. Whats bothering me the most is the fact Im feeling bloated and just feel like I have put on all the weight I worked off.....for example my legs and stomach feel flabby and yet like last week they were fine...Not feeling the best at the moment as have a habit of putting myself down, thats another story....

It happened over a while but mostly when I started working full time that i started having some serious effects. Still trying to fit everything in plus work was just not giving my body the time to rest it really needed. I made sure i had rest days but with an active job and lifestyle it made it hard. It got to the point where i started developing eating dissoreders (skipping meals reguarly and feeling sick when i did eat). Eventualy I completly broke down emotionaly after one hard training. Admitting i was doing to much i drastically changed my training schedual. Over training is very real and messes you up so not worth it. Ok to drain the tank every now and then but make sure you leave anough in the dam to fill it up.

I work out 5-6 days a week 45 - 60 min cardio and then weights targeted to a specific muscle group. Can over training cause weight lose to stall?

Typically, my training session lasts from 70-90 minutes and includes both components. I sometimes feel tired or flu-like symptoms which may be an indication of over training. Feeling this way causes me to shorten, somewhat the length of my training. Additionally, Friday is an aerobics day only. Saturday and Sunday are rest days. This works for me.

Fueling the body with the right foods goes right along with the rest days and cross-training. I think the important thing is listening to your body. Go ahead and push it...but not to the point of injury or burnout. Good for you for taking your rest days! :) They are just as important as the workouts themselves.
