for a bodybuilder there isnt...bodybuilder dont train hard enough to overtrain...

what you are experiencing is your body trying to adapt to work...its a shock to your CNS, but nothing else....you will likely never experience overtraining.....if olympic atheletes rarely hit the wall and overtrain, a bodybuilder damn sure never will...especially with all the drugs used for recovery...

olympic athletes? you mean paid professionals who work with paid strength coaches who are professionals as well

when it comes to training - overtraining is possible and its one of the first things you learn as a strength and conditioning specialists when designing SPORT SPECEFIC routines ---- if an athlete is paid professional is any organization cept ifb.b then they are working with strength and conditioning specials, trainers, docters....cortizone shots, blood tests, VO2max, cardic output EKGs, bone density scans, they havce access to all so overtraining is possible but is minimalized once your at a level and know your body

but yes a 16yr old or 29yr old chump on bottle of testasterona can overtrain
case in point

Lactic acidosis is a physiological condition characterized by low pH in body tissues and blood (acidosis) accompanied by the buildup of lactate especially D-lactate, and is considered a distinct form of metabolic acidosis.[1] The condition typically occurs when cells receive too little oxygen (hypoxia), for example during vigorous exercise. In this situation, impaired cellular respiration leads to lower pH levels. Simultaneously, cells are forced to metabolize glucose anaerobically, which leads to lactate formation. Therefore, elevated lactate is indicative of tissue hypoxia, hypoperfusion, and possible damage

not case and point...you as a BB is a very lazy test subject....you think your body adapting to work is overtraining...a bb will never overtrain...i have been where you are...i was just as delusional....BB do not overtrain because never in a million years will they ever train hard enough..

Bullshit. If you know your sport, you also know that at the time when he was training, there wasn't the gear to do hack squat etc. Gym's looked like this:

Wooden bench, wooden squat rack etc. Those were the days when the gym business start to grow.

You're probably lying unless you play soccer for 2+hrs everyday.

What are some of the signs of overtraining? Elvated morning pulse is one that I've heard of.

WHEN YOU HAVE TRAINED SAY 12 STRAIGHT DAYs IN A ROW, and the last couple have not felt quite rite, then today ur 13 th day ud rather be anywhere than the gym. with the best place bein in a chair watchin tv feeling overly tired..

this is overtrained

I'm not lying, I was a cross country and track runner in high school, and my speciality was the 800 meters, or half mile as it's called in da U S of A and I regularly ran in half mile in under 2 min. My best time was 1:56. Also, I had it tested at The Ohio State University ;D

I hear ya case! Remember, there is such a thing as undertraining also, I should know, as I was undertraining for a period of 3 or 4 years, thanks to Mike Mentzer's idea of training 1 work set of 2 exercises once a week. BRUTAL WASTE OF TIME!
