What if you think you're absolutely crushing it in the gym, but in reality, you're spinning your wheels and moving backward without realizing it? In this episode of Fitness Stuff for Normal People, Marianna and Tony are breaking down over-training—what it actually is, how to spot it before it becomes a problem, and the signs that you’ve already pushed too far. Because training hard is great, but training smart is what actually gets results. They’ll cover the red flags that signal you're creeping into burnout territory, what happens when you ignore them, and—most importantly—how to pull yourself out if you’ve already overdone it. If you want to make real progress instead of just wearing yourself down, this is one you don’t want to miss.Sign up for Fitness Stuff PREMIUM here!!Access to ALL advanced 12-Week Training Programs, Bonus podcast episodes EVERY Friday, Weekly Legion supplement giveaways, and more.Legion Athletics Discount:Legion Athletics 20% Off With Code: "FSPOD" HERE!Tools mentioned in episode:Fitness Stuff Calculators (Calorie, Protein, etc.)Meal Prep Essential's Amazon ListEat This Much Meal PlannerTimestamps:(5:51) What is Overtraining?(11:54) Leading Indicators (18:17) Concurrent Indicators(32:56) Lagging Indicators

In this episode, Marianna and Tony revisit the topic to deliver the most current, evidence-based insights and usage recommendations.
