How much exercise is too much?

This is quite hard to define, as it in my eyes also depends on your health. Some people exercise every day, some a few times a week. You should always listen to your body when it shows signs of exhaustion or over-working. Atleast try not to do it more than twice a day every week (this is close to an extreme maximum), especially if you arent a top-athlete.

It depends on what your age and weight and bmi is. It also depends your limitations and if you have any dissbility or not... it also is about if you are lazy and it depends how how tired you get you should not get in to the habit of doing it every day espec the same muscle you should not do it every day

This question should be addressed by a doctor. There is no magic number for the amount of exercise. That being said are signs that your body gives when there is too much stress on the body. Feeling light headed for example should be an indicator that your body has had enough. It has been said that 120 minutes of activity per week is important for overall health. Again I would talk to a doctor about what is best for you, ask everyone has different goals, history and health.

Exercise can be very good and healthy for someone but like everything, it needs to be done in moderation. If you find yourself tired enough to pass out, you've probably done too much. You should challenge yourself to the point where it's a little out of your comfort zone but not too strenuous. While exercising, stay hydrated and take breaks as needed. About 150 minutes of exercise a week tends to be good for most people. This number is not set in stone but is a good place to be. You should take into consideration how much you eat and your weight when you work out. If you are underweight don't work out excessively. This could be harmful to you.

Too much exercise is when your body becomes tired and is simply unable to recover due to how there is a lot of strain. Your central nervous system becomes extremely fatigued and attacked, therefore important things, like sleep can become disrupted and compromised. Too much exercise is when you are sore all the time, to the point that the pain is no longer soreness but rather achy pains. These achy pains could indicate a significant amount of tears in your muscles that have not yet healed and that increases your risk of getting an injury, and it also defeats the point of wanting to get stronger and healthier. In order to get stronger these muscle tears need to have sufficient time to heal and adapt to a higher load and volume of exercise. Other indicators of too much exercise include an oddly fast resting heart rate, consistent mental and physical fatigue, and trouble sleeping and excessive dehydration. I think if you are experiencing these symptoms, you should take a step back and see why you are exercising too much. What are you trying to hide/ escape from? There is always going to be an underlying cause for this unhealthy habit.

It differs from person to person. Listen to your body during a session. A healthy workout starts with a warm up to get the blood pumping and warming up the muscles so you dont injure them. In this time you can do things like running, high knees, arm circles, and then stretch. Then you can do cardio for 30-60 minutes and I usually do strength exercises/weight lifting for about an hour to two hours (which might be too much for a beginner), and then I either practice Capoeira (a martial art that takes a lot of energy) and/or hop on the treadmill or elliptical machine. My workouts usually span from an hour to three hours and I train (a word for physical exercise) 2-4 days a week. Something to know is, you might only be able to do a very intense workout once a week, dont think in all or nothing just do what you can it is exactly what your body mind & soul needs.

To almost anything, when it disturbs your daily life and friendships deeply, it's probably too much. Also if you find yourself injured most of the time, it's most likely a clear indication of over training and going too far. Less is more. Muscle is built while resting, not while working out. Yes you need to break down the muscle to a certain degree with training, but if you don't let it repair itself, your muscles won't grow or gain strength. Same with skill based things. They're engraved in your brain while you rest. If you don't let your brain rest it won't have time to recover and go over the things you did. All athletes have at least one rest day during the week when they let their body recover and do basically nothing. Don't be afraid of losing gains, because this is when the muscles actually build on themselves and make you stronger. To contrary also too much rest isn't good. It's about finding the balance. Not too much exercise but not too much rest!

You don't want to overwork yourself to the point in which it's unhealthy. I know that the desire for the dream body is tempting but your body needs time to fully heal. I would say that if you're using weights at the gym, try to only use them every other day or else you could seriously hurt yourself. Maybe on the days in between you could do some cardio at the gym or around your neighborhood instead. With running though, it isn't healthy to be sprinting daily so just remember that. It's healthy to have a daily conditioning routine and stretch afterwards. You also need to make sure your eating a healthy, well-balanced diet and drinking loads of water if you are exercising on the daily. Always know that getting in shape takes some time and that one should't force themselves to be at the level of a professional athlete in a week or two; as long as your patient you will achieve your dreams.

Exercise is empowering for some people, but a necessity or chore for others. One might not be able to recognize that they are over-doing it due to a number of reasons,be it because they are passionate about exercising or desperate to look/ feel good. At the point when the amount of exercise you do leaves you physically/mentally tired, begins isolating you from your family/friends (you turn down plans, don't talk to them), or at the point where it has an unhealthy effect on your body - such as exercising despite an injury or to the point of having no fat at all, looking frail, feeling weak. Too much of a good thing is not good at all.

When you feel your body starts to hurt.the researchers found that 50 percent of athletes who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging displayed signs of the tricky-to-detect hardening of heart cells. This hardening of heart cells may play a role in precipitating sudden cardiac arrest or, at the very least, induce an irregular heartbeat. And while runners who log between .15 and 15 miles per week (a wide range, indeed) benefit from an estimated 19 percent reduction in mortality rates, those who consistently surpass 25 weekly miles have a risk of death compared to those who don’t exercise.
