Overtraining Under Recovery: 100+ Expert Talks

About Overtraining Under Recovery

Pushing harder isn't always the answer, and plenty of people come to DrTalks after learning that the hard way. Fatigue that training doesn't fix, poor sleep, weight that creeps up anyway, nagging joint pain, irregular periods, thyroid problems like Hashimoto's, and sports injuries that keep coming back are all things these experts see every day. These talks also go past the gym. Too much stress on the body with too little recovery affects your hormones, thyroid, blood sugar, immune system, gut and sleep. You'll find conversations on midlife training for women, fasting and hormones, wearables and heart rate variability, youth sports injuries, and how athletes train hard and still recover. Doctors, sports and movement specialists, coaches and functional medicine practitioners explain what's actually going on, which tests are worth asking your provider about, from hormone and thyroid panels to imaging and movement assessments, and what helps, from smarter strength training and enough protein to better sleep, breathwork and recovery.
