By Oliver Wolter, inventor of The X-Size Program see Bodybuilding Software Do you workout too long or too often? Are you working too hard in the gym? Yes, you do have to work hard to build muscle and strength, but if you are overtraining then you effort will be wasted and your reward will be stagnation. "But how can I tell if I overtraining", you might ask, "is there an overtraining test?". Yes, there are many ways to test for overtraining. One of the most accurate ways is the monitor the amount of lactic acid in the blood after a workout. But since this requires sophisticated equipment that we don't have access to, a reliable alternative is to monitor resting heart rate. When you workout too hard or too much, your adrenal glands release too much of a stress hormone called "catecholamine" which puts your body in a "wired-up" state. In this condition there is a great increase in your heart rate. What this means is - if your resting heart rate is higher then what is normal for you, then you are on the verge of overtraining. A Simple Daily Overtraining Test When you wake up, first lie quietly in bed for five minutes and then check and record your resting heart rate. Next get out of bed and weigh yourself and record another count of resting heart rate. After your workout for that day rest for 15 minutes and again record your heart rate. If you see a steady or sudden rise in your morning heart rate over the next 7 to 28 days, it is evidence that you are overstressing your body and you will need to decrease the volume and intensity of your workouts to keep from overtraining. Also if your resting heart rate 15 minutes after your workout is faster then 5 beats over your morning count, you may have overextended yourself that day and should plan a less intense workout on your next trip to the gym.
