The REAL Doctor is in and your diagnosis is "do you even lift?". You're not overtrained, you just need a couple of days off, relax and then get back in the gym ASAP.
Angry description aside, on this video Big Pharma gets yet another slap from Dr. Pak, this time saving the honest tax-payer millions in emergency visits for Overtraining Syndrom diagnoses. God Bless the PhDs.

About the channel:
I am Pak, a scientist, a coach but most importantly, a lifter.
I did my PhD on "the minimum effective dose for strength" and currently, as part of the Applied Muscle Development Lab (NYC), my research focuses on strength and muscle growth. As a coach I work with individuals of all professional and sporting backgrounds, from elite strength athletes to busy professionals looking to get stronger and improve their body composition.
As a lifter, there's not much more to say than "I lift and enjoy training hard". Citations for the "I lift" part can be provided upon request.
This channel is essentially me rambling on about all things lifting, including the odd "hot take" here and there with the aim of helping other fellow lifters as well as inspiring non-lifters to lift.
Viewer discretion is advised.
Real doctor* no gimmicks.
