It’s natural to want to give your all in training, logging extra miles and spending more time working out to reach your athletic goals. But pushing your body too hard is like pushing a machine beyond its limits—you might not make the progress you expect and could face setbacks instead.
Intense exercise can increase the risk of brain inflammation and lead to overtraining syndrome, a condition marked by a decline in performance, physiological dysfunction, or even psychological distress. In extreme cases, overexertion can cause the heart to struggle to supply enough oxygen-rich blood, potentially leading to sudden and severe consequences, including death.
Prioritise protection and recovery
Choosing the right nutrition is crucial to safeguarding your brain and heart from the harmful effects of excessive physical exertion. Focus on recovery and protection to ensure you continue making progress without compromising your long-term health.
