Overtraining is not just being tired from exercise. It is a systemic stress syndrome where recovery capacity is overwhelmed by training volume, leading to performance decline, immune suppression and hormonal disruption.
Persistent fatigue despite rest, declining performance despite training, elevated resting heart rate, frequent illness, mood disturbances, sleep disruption and loss of motivation.
Overtraining elevates baseline cortisol. Ashwagandha in SodaPeak supports cortisol regulation, but the primary fix is reducing training volume and increasing recovery time.
Sleep (7 to 9 hours), nutrition (adequate protein and calories), active recovery (light movement), stress management and consistent daily supplementation for nutritional support.
