Overtraining, Fear of Exercise, Lack Of Workout Motivation – Balanced Vibes – Ep 48

How should you work out after you've recovered from metabolic burnout?

Here are the 3 types of people I see most often:

1 – The ones that start overtraining immediately (the largest group)
2 – The ones that are scared to exercise even months after recovery because they believe it's going to harm their health
3 – The ones who are struggling with workout motivation and just can't get themselves to exercise.

Know that you should be super careful when you first start exercising again! Your hormones are really sensitive, so err on the side of doing less rather than more.

If you are still. tired, rest! You don't have to push yourself to do hard workouts, but you also don't have to avoid working out out of the fear.

Lastly, learn to work out in moderation. You don't have to do it 6-7 times a week. Start small, with 2 workouts a week, and then increase from there if everything goes well and you want and can do more.
