Are You Training TOO HARD? | Signs Of Overtraining & How It Can Affect YOUR Running

Спорт

Do you keep getting injured? Are you tired all the time and lacking motivation? These could be signs that you’re overtraining.
Overtraining is quite a complex issue and will present itself in many different ways - from injury and fatigue, weight loss, picking up illnesses or infections, lack of sleep and changes in mood. If you are training too hard it’s likely you’ll be experiencing more than one of these symptoms.
Today Rick and The Running Channel’s resident Physiotherapist, Manni Ovola, discuss what overtraining is, how to spot it and what you can do to avoid it.

    @Darth Bossk How can eating fast food be addictive? How can just chilling be addictive? In this case when you finish a run, you receive endorphins, burns calories, & feel overall better. This isn't just with running but with cardio in general.

    I'm definitely guilty of overtraining. I'm still learning to make sure my easy runs are indeed easy. But, I often get too excited, especially if I'm feeling good, and before I know it, I'm actually running a tempo run, and not an easy run. And because of that, I find myself weak and sore and overtrained. It's hard to leave the ego at the house.

    Totally agree Darren. As an experienced runner, i have tried this approach in the past, but like you say, you set off on a long run, you feel strong, and before you know it, you have done a long tempo run. Then i read an article in Runners World bny a guy called Pete Magill, a runner who broke 15 minutes for the 5K, at the age of 47, and 31:11 for the 10K at over 50 years of age. I read his book, Fast 5k, and ever since all my easy runs have been easy, and i have felt so much better and stronger.

  • @runningchannel

    @runningchannel

    3 жыл бұрын

    Self assessment of over training can be through disturbed sleep, reduction in performance, constant fatigue and increased heart rate variability. Your Achilles can benefit from calf raises post run and maintaining this strength consistently after your runs is really beneficial to your overall health. Along with the calf muscles you can increase the strength and stiffness of the actual achilles with some heavy weight training. - Manni

    Guys got advised to wear some arch support orthotics after a chiropodist did some work on a toenail I was losing during recent Marathon training. Have you done a video on orthotics, straps or kinesiology tape? Would like some advice on what type of runners do you need if you wear orthotics, as in neutral if you wore ones for supination. Do inserts need to be broken in? My right big toe was poking a hole in the top panel of the runner and the toe beside it was a lost cause. The chiropodist suggested the arch supports to help with this.

    Hey, these types of injury point towards dramatic changes in your training. I would be really cautious about the amount you’re running and when you return to running. The key to reducing overload of the calf muscles is to ensure that you build their capacity, this can be done through running but also more importantly strength work. So some calf raises are a great solution along with strengthening your hip muscles. - Manni

    My mileage has just spiked in my training plan as I get ready for a December 13 marathon (first!). Prior to this year I've only run a half, and that was 3 years ago. I've been following the plan since May, even in the Texas heat, but the long runs are starting to get daunting. I had a really hard time after last Saturday's 16 miles, and today's run in considerably warmer weather I had to cut in half (from 8 to 4). I have no way to gauge whether this is overtraining or just normal?

    Really sorry to hear about your pain. The achilles is a structure that requires stiffness to ensure good energy return. Manni our Physiotherapist would actually disagree with this as we understand from the research tendon stiffness improves protein turnover and collagen production. So without going into too much detail you need to strengthen your calf and this will in turn stiffen your tendon, improving your pain and the energy return overall function.

    Having trouble figuring out whether I have achilles tendinopathy or plantar fasciitis. Pain in morning, maybe 1 inch above the heel, towards the back side of the foot. Doing heel drops and easy running since fast running seems to aggravate it (otherwise I don't feel it during runs at all, or after 5-10 minutes after waking up).

    I totally agree with TRC Collin. I went to PT for my Plantar Fascitis last year and did the therapy and exercises religiously as directed. In about two weeks I was pain free and never missed a run. Also you can go to a Podiatrist and get Steroid injection therapy for severe cases. Try PT first.

    I started to run two days more per week, five days of running and two days rest, I´m not pushing that hard, lots of easy runs, not a super high mileage, and I actually feel like im making progress but I feel some pain in my heel (both feet), not when running but walking, its like having a little stone on my shoe right in my heels, I can actually touch it. I´ve tried resting, ice, massage and the pain reduces but always comes back

    Personal experience - People who take up running when they are young (teenagers or younger) almost always train too hard. Usually not too much, but too hard. Many young people will push to the point of throwing up in every session. When I was 15 I'd treat every long run like a tempo run and of course this led to repeated injuries. People who take up running when they're older often have the complete opposite problem. They hate effort and will do every run at an extremely low level of effort, never moving out of their comfort zone and therefore never really improving. There's nothing wrong with this of course, but many of these people are found on websites such as Reddit and Strava spreading false advice to new runners looking to improve.

    I had achilles tendonitis late last year - overtraining too... I was being stubborn and doing a couple of 5ks a week and it was just making it worse. I then was forced to spend 10 weeks in bed due to pneumonia (argh!) and the 'rest' cured the tendonitis. Now I can't run yet for my weak lungs but at least the achilles are sorted 🤦😖. Seriously though, take time off from walking and running for a while, do cycling or swimming instead. Let your body heal.

I have asked doctors about fatigue for 20 years. it appears there are no one with skills in this field in Sweden. kind of weird having a slow jog and it feels like someone is sitting on my chest. But there is no asthma. Otherwise that could have explained much of it. I have been studying something called Adrenal fatigue, which fits perfectly, but no blood test says something is wrong. Doctors laugh when I bring it up. I do see your point about taking it easy. That's not hard to do when you can't even run a 5 min pace per km any more. So weird. I have been trying L-tyrosine and other supplements to no avail. So frustrating, can't even work full time. But i will try to heed your call and those others might have. Thank you. Loved the video.

    For beginners or anyone worried about overtraining, I recommend MAF training. It’s almost impossible to hurt yourself using this conditioning method. The very gist of it is walk/run at your MAF HR of 180-your age. Always train in this aerobic zone and eventually your HR will stay low, but your pace will get faster. Plus when you first start you will be going so slow it’s practically impossible to hurt yourself.

    Sounds like it. Sustaining a higher effort regardless of weight isn't the best. Slow down - most miles you do should feel easy, don't think about what used to feel easy, it's about the now. Now you feel pain near your knee, get it checked out by a doctor and strengthen it according to doc advice would help you recover quicker.

    Hey, sorry to hear about your pain. You will need to slightly adjust your training if your body has changed during lockdown. So maybe try training for time. So go out for a minimum amount of time and build up your repetitions of this period during the week, for example. Run 15-20mins twice a week over 4 weeks and build this to 3 times a week for 4 weeks. If you put on weight over 5 months you will have to use a similar amount of time to lose this weight. Don’t expect a really quick change, make the process sustainable and this will prevent injury. -Manni
