Overtraining, the Unconsidered in Fitness, Exercise, Sports
“The Unconsidered”……Or Over-training in fitness, exercise, and sports
When “fitness, sports, athletics” became top of mind, there is almost always “an overlooked” yet serious consideration! This serious consideration has been, ”what does the body dictate!”
Not what we or the individual wants, or desires, but “an end goal of specific results that is worked or driven for!” This goal is often thinner, faster, stronger, more muscular, or even healthier! However, the “goal” must or should (hopefully) be reached in a positive fashion!
More, is and has been an attitude with exercise, fitness, sports, and athletic training, along with, “whatever it takes!” Yet, if one stands back, removes the ego, slows down, and opens their mind, major serious, benefits can and will happen!
First, and foremost “ego has reigned,” in the exercise arena for decades! This meaning, that “more” is better, and is almost compulsory for improvement, as is the most common thought and practice! When in reality, “more” leads to overtraining!” Overtraining can be easily avoided, if, yes a big “IF,” most individuals could get their “ego” and the idea of “more is always better” out of their ways! (putting ego aside is near impossible)
Research, and scientific fact has shown that recovery, “full recovery” form training is the only time “when” performance is increased, not during the recovery, but after “full recovery” has taken place!
At ResultsAreProof.com and Bert Seelman’s programs, results are excelling in “all forms of physical performance” which has been a “typical” result! Whether it is youth to seniors, amateur to extreme professional athletes, and more importantly or “most importantly” health and healing of any conditions!
Why, has this positive result been so common, across the board with all their systems? The answer is simple! Use of facts, not ego! EGO is a “killer” of everything, ESPECIALLY RESULTS!
Results for increased physical performance “requires that the body, after being “worked out” or stimulated,…. recovers, heals, and or “repairs” adequately or completely, as fast as possible! (making the body ready for the next performance)
What makes for these consistent, positive, and maximum responses, has been in “the secret of maximizing recovery!”
How does one maximize recovery, for more or faster responses? Optimizing responses from the mechanisms is only possible by meeting the requirements of nutrition, exercise and rest or time! These processes require time to accumulate the materials, time to process the materials, and then time to actually make the changes to the tissues that have needs!
Optimizing the responses therefore takes knowledge and time for the response mechanisms of the body, before, during and after stimulus (training) which is “the key” to making, keeping, and continuing increases in performance!
The most misunderstood factor for increasing results in athletic performance or healing is the same factor, it is “time!” The problem is also the same, time, as everyone wants more results NOW!
NOTE: Healing is also, “an increase” in physical performance!”
Increasing healing, requires responses form the same mechanisms!
Imagine, an athlete who would utilize this information about “time” being an important consideration on a continuous basis, their career would be not just improved, but lengthened!
So, the “Unconsidered” is about health, wellness, being sound at the deeper levels!
“Overtraining” is seeing, measuring, or realizing slower or no measurable positive increases in performance are due to the body being unable to respond adequately!
A SIMPLE EXAMPLE:
Ask any trainer or person who works out regularly without fail, if when they miss a workout and then return after missing a day or two, if they found that they were stronger….?
Most all will tell you they were! It’s a big YES!
So now ask yourself, did they get more rest, less stress, well of course! They GOT MORE RECOVERY! Not more exercise!
The factor of more recovery is always better than more stress of exercise! HELLO…
By allowing more “time” for all processes, the body could respond better!
So, if the body is not having positive responses, then health is also being depleted!
Beware, it isn’t just “overtraining,” is actually depleting your health! ©copyright Bert Seelman 2019
