Overtraining Is KILLING Your Gains! (How Much Is Too Much?) | Mind Pump TV

In this video, Sal goes over how to properly facilitate recovery for maximum muscle gain. If you overtrain, you are at a potential risk at not making any progress.
When you are working out, you ask your body to burn body fat or build muscle. Once you send that signal, your body strays away from adapting and recovering to build or burn. But, you need to find the right balance with sending this signal and making sure you are not overtraining.
Make sure that you get great sleep when you are training. Poor sleep or lack of sleep compromises your body's ability to recover, burn fat, and build muscle. Place a special emphasis on good, quality sleep. An hour before bed, create a sleep routine. Turn the bright lights off. If you can't do that, you can use blue-blockers, which block the blue light that keeps you up from electronics. Drink warm chamomile tea an hour before bed, it is a natural sleep-aid. Get a cool room, 65 degrees is the best temperature for sleep. Also! Sleep naked! It helps with sleep quality.
How long should you wait between workouts? Advanced people can train at higher intensities more often. Keeping that in mind, more important than frequency is the intensity of training. Hit a body part again if you are feeling sore, but with lower intensity. For most people, this means full-body workouts two to three times a week. (MAPS Anabolic). If you feel great during your workouts, push yourself, but if you don't scale down on the intensity.

@Karson Niko Try Flixzone. You can find it on google :)

[@pedrolavigne9718]

Makes so much sense. The most important part of training is the quality of the metabolic rebuild following an induced local punctual muscle inflammation. One can make an analogy with Valter Longo mimicking fasting. The benefits come from the quality of the refeeding that impacts the metabolism. It's all about the voluntarily induced metabolic change.

Just got a pump in the gym, now for the MIND PUUUUUMP 💪🙌

[@pandahsykes602]

I train 6 days a week , sometimes up to 1.5 hours per session when I bulk - but I feel great , when I cut I usually feel worse ; I only train 3-5 days a week and feel sluggish most of the time that I have to cut... I think it varies greatly person to person depending on stress levels , daily work and life of that specific person , etc etc ... more stressors = overtraining more likely to happen , less stressors = more time and positive energy to focus on working out and recovering . I also sleep 10 hrs every night and it seems to really help when I bulk , when If I’m not training at all I will feel overtired and groggy from 10 hrs sleep .

[@ezekiellyngdoh6210]

Hi I've been cutting for sometime now and for some weeks I've seen fatloss but now there's no change .I'm tracking my macros and eating at a deficit, I train 6 days a week and recently I've been feeling really fatigue . I want to lose more fat and get through these plateaus, should I change anything?

[@theburningelement.6447]

Because overtraining is bullshit

[@filipe_paixao]

I work 9 hours, sleep 7 and train 4 to 6 hours a day.

[@gj1233]

I train 6 days and around 1.5 hours aswell along with two sports and the 3 main things for me is reaching protein requirements, taking creatine and getting quality sleep

[@dontcaretochooseone]

I can't stay away from the gym. That is Only when it's closed like on Sundays😎

[@koroborok2719]

Im addicted to working out :'(

[@DeRussellMasina]

Great, he told us to train nekkid and now I have charges AND I'm band from the gym..

[@irockbmw6s908]

Sore usually means you haven t built enough work capacity in that muscle. I ve been benching 3x a wk, sqaut 2x or 3x and deadlift 2 or 3x and ohp 1x for several years now and i feel no worse than when i used to do a bro split. Work capacity can be increased over time.

[@blacklyfe5543]

No it doesn't it means you've made progress

[@FartCakes]

Sounds like your body has adapted to your workout. Have you still been making gainz/progressing recently? 🤔

[@irockbmw6s908]

I d say tons of people are undertraining. They do a bro split and hit a body part once a wk. People can do way more frequency than that. Infact the longer you ve trained, the more necessary increased frequency becomes.

[@HaPa4595]

Don´t think so. Most oft the people have way too high volume with way to less frequency. With more experience you are capable to life really heavy and push your limits and need way more time for regeneration!

[@YairRochon]

I appreciate your efforts! 🙏 I’ve got a question: 🤨 I found these words 😅. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). I’d be grateful for some help. 🙌

Excellent info! The fridge shelf drop at 5:55 was entertaining. I wish this info was in a video with a subject line about sleep, so many people need to hear this!

[@coachingleo7479]

awesome video! thanks for these insights! :)

[@nightfangs2910]

Could you do a video about should you train when you have a cold, or recover first then train ?

[@TCt83067695]

Personally i do. Expose my body back to the elements. Build my immunity

[@coachgodwinpeanutheadass4038]

sometimes i train when im sick because the alternative is sitting at home like a little bitch. but if u are at deaths door i promise no one will care if u miss a day

[@hamzahsaeed]

Great video

[@yo_g72]

Note on the chamomile. If your going to add something new, that you haven't had before, like chamomile. Take notice of any major or minor reactions you might have to it. An allergic reaction is a lot more noticeable, but slight intolerance problems can go on for awhile before you realize whats causing it. Speaking from experience.

[@onlymemoontononlyme7056]

breaking my limit to the gym i ended up overtrained. i’m obese 200lbs i go to the gym for 2 weeks straight and other time i goes 2x a day.

[@grafa111]

Sleep naked - best tip

[@JuozasdvileviciusAksana]

Thanks for sharing such valuable information! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How can I transfer them to Binance?

[@azsegrxdhtfgvijnkomlewrhtg9508]

I thought I was overtraining but it turns out I was just lifting heavier than I can handle. If one rep is a hard grinder and the next rep requires over a minute to attempt and is another hard grinder and then you have to rerack the weight in order to get the third rep which is another hard grinder then you're lifting too heavy. Also doing 95% of your one rep max for 15 reps probably isn't good for you. I liked to think I could put 10 more pounds on the bar after every third workout but that's just not realistic.

[@Alex00025]

So this might be my 2nd time overtraining my Muscles and while I was at the gym I could actually feel when it happened, my work out was harder to do & I felt Fatigued. Will my Muscles go back to normal?

no, never, I'm sorry man

Useful as usual

[@scottweaverphotovideo]

I like what Dave Draper said about "over training". He said that was how they trained back in the 1960's. It was all they knew. Check out photos of Dave and other bodybuilders from back then and see if they look "over trained".

[@XxMVPxDawg]

How you look isn't indicative of whether or not you're overtraining, not to mention he was also on steroids. Your comment couldn't possibly be any less logical.

[@yjersey]

Tony N great comment.... And its not just the genetics which EVERYYYYONE sweats over. Most guys who “sling” that term around.... Are on drugs. Its a cover up term. Yea protein and great genetics bro. Not true in moooost cases. Its the roids. And parents push roids on their kids at a young age in sports, trust me.

[@jakesmith6337]

Comparing one of the top tier bodybuilders to the typical gym bro is nonsense! Also Dave was on steroids, which are primarily about advancing recovery

[@mayes1183]

For me, sleep is the hardest part…

[@yjersey]

How do U manage intensity? More details please

[@MindPumpTV]

Base it on results. Are you progressing?

[@CBoer-tw7gy]

Is it bad to walk for 4 hours every morning and then go running

[@Starchaser63]

Anyone who's reached the point of Physical and mental weakness due to excessive training should follow the three golden rules for optimum recovery....Do no exercise..Do no exercise..Do no exercise..im talking taking 6 months off. Anyone who tells you to take a month off then do some light training doesn't understand human biology or Hormones, excessive training destroys the Adrenal Glands whilst raising cortisol and this combination is bad. Two simple rules to follow are...Train dont strain and Stimulate don't Anhilalate...Happy training

[@MindPumpTV]

👍

[@Dougie.A.M]

That top shelf in the fridge is disturbing my sleep cycle!

[@colin8601]

Probably worth mentioning autoregulation, the "volume landmarks", etc

[@timorouw5555]

Clicked on a video about overtraining. Got a lecture about sleep. Wtf?

[@analogcrunch4716]

I dont think most people overtrain, most people ego lift and move weights but dont work muscles. I've seen 150 lb guys at the gym push more weight than a pro bodybuilder, difference is form and technique. Why ego lifters never progress. Example they warm up with 135 lbs on BP lol every time.

[@filipe_paixao]

2 to 4 times per muscle group? Should I train legs 3 times a week? 🥵

[@TheJimmyswe150]

went from 6 days to 5 days and 1 bodypart once a week instead of 2 except abs wish i do 2 times, muh more energy and testosterone

[@davidjudah4578]

Very smart video. Ill share

[@wtfvideos3264]

5:51 the intensity in that fridge was too mucb

[@601marcusable]

I have had poor sleeping habits because i exercise too much not giving my body a break!

[@theredninja2817]

So I have a question I never seem to be able to find out the correct workout frequency or days per week to train so I usually alternate week to week doing one week three times a week full body sessions and then the next week is four days per week where I give specific things a greater amount of attention individually and I just alternate this it would be nice to know if this is a good idea or if it’s better to pick just one format of training and stick with it

[@shawndejohn63]

Full Body 2 to 3 times a week no more than that went you are natural, also never train to failure it zaps your SNC.

[@paul9006]

The content of the video doesn't really match the title I would say..

[@MrNatural718]

what do you mean

[@koroborok2719]

Ok how does this make sense? When you can workout 2 times a week and still change or workout 3 times a week and still change? Everyones different...

[@601marcusable]

I drink water before bed

[@germanshepherdmom1143]

What about taking a pill for sleep ?

[@ike3263]

Regress with progress. Hmmm...interesting!!!!

[@DannyPacheco-j6f]

Hitting body parts 2-4 times aweek ? I thought once a week was the norm to let your muscles recover

[@singh853_5]

So Mike mentzer was right! Work out 30 minutes a day.

[@Lperw]

5:56 even the fridge is overtraining!

[@mmadmbjm]

Exercise should be brief a d infrequent.

[@franbatista9062]

There’s no such thing as overtraining, but under recover.

[@blacklyfe5543]

Yes there is

[@darksesh8247]

Try working out hard while after you got out of you’re full time job that’s heavy work requiring your physical strength.

No such thing as over training. Jail men train the same muscle for days

[@rdmelancon3]

Good content fellas, but these info monologues need to be saved for the podcast. Watching you talk is dull and boring, no offense, but it lulls me to sleep, which I guess is perfect for recovery. I use these videos like chamomile tea! More lifting videos!
