Signs of Overtraining and Stalled Fat Loss
Stalled fat loss can be a sign of overtraining, as the body may think it is in danger and conserve energy, leading to retaining body fat. Experiencing difficulties in maintaining strength and losing body fat can indicate the need to balance various factors. The body's natural response to stress and overtraining is to hold onto fat as a protective mechanism. Body fat serves as an insurance against food scarcity and crises. Too much stress can hinder the body's ability to recover and adapt, signaling the body to store fat instead of burning it. Recognizing overtraining and addressing it is crucial to prevent further negative impacts on the body.
