Over-Exercising
Over-exercising is using your body too hard for too long a time. A regular exercise program provides many benefits, and its normal to be mildly sore and a little tired following your workouts. You might even push yourself beyond your limits at times, and that's okay too. But, if you overdo it without allowing your body to recover, it can break down.
Over-exercising can lead to chronic injuries. Your heart rate may increase and your appetite may decrease, leading to unhealthy weight loss. If you're exercising too hard, your regular workout might seem more difficult or you may feel fatigued after just a few exercises. As a result, progress in your training can be delayed. Here are a few tips to help keep your body healthy so that you can train safely:

*Practice patience. If you think that over-exercising will lead to faster results, you're wrong!

*Cut down on your current routine or choose easier exercises until your body has time to recover.

*Take at least one day off between workouts and get plenty of sleep.

Weight Lifting For Absolute Beginners! Written for women over 30 who are not currently on an exercise routine. You will learn to lift weights (without gym fees and spending less than $5 on equipment), and stick with your routine to lose weight and tone your body. Did you know that your muscles burn calories 24 hours a day?

Chill Out:
The physical symptoms of over-exercising range from muscle soreness and general fatigue to insomnia and loss of normal appetite. You can avoid over-training or over-exercise just by taking time to rest and regenerate your body. If you're not finishing your workouts feeling energized and refreshed, cut back on the amount or intensity or your workouts. Then, alternate harder workouts with easier, less strenuous activities such as walking or light swimming. Take a day off at least once a week. This rest time is as valuable to your program as a day at the gym. Stop exercising when you feel chronic pain or excessive fatigue setting in. Set realistic fitness goals, ones that you can achieve without over-exercising.

What Readers Are Saying...

About the Weight Lifting for Absolute Beginners eBook:

"This plan makes it so easy..."

"I had had an inkling of the benefits of weightlifting before, but no complete plan. This plan makes it so easy to keep track, gives more info about procedure than any other “method” I’ve come across, and is so low key with fillips of humor, which make it more enjoyable. Thank you!"

~ Frances

"The pictures are great..."

I just started the program and I enjoy it! The book is very easy to understand and the pictures are great! I'm looking forward to waking up to lift weights to challenge myself. I feel a small difference in the way my clothes fit and a huge difference about how my muscles feel (tight). Feeling the difference in the way my clothes fit really makes me yearn to lift weights and exercise. I'm very pleased with the book and have recommended it to some friends."

"Any beginner can understand the exercises immediately..."

Weight Lifting For Absolute Beginners is illustrated so well that any beginner can understand the exercises immediately.

The illustrations of exercises are really lifelike, and the descriptions are clear, straightforward and easy to follow. In addition to guiding you through the exercises, this e-book provides complete workout routines and gives you a clear-cut plan to stay on track.

Weight Lifting For Absolute Beginners will do more for you than a session with a personal trainer - and for only a tiny fraction of the cost! I highly recommend this outstanding e-book to anyone who wants to get the most out of their workout.

"Easiest-to-use..."

I'm only getting started, but this is the best-illustrated, easiest-to-use weight-lifting booklet I've ever found. The fact that it's female-centric really, really *made* the decision to purchase it for me.
