So you take a week to deload, but still feel some pain in an old injury. You take another week off. Then you can't remember if you've taken only 2 weeks off- because it might have been 4. Then...<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Your 1 rep max has dropped by 25% on all lifts.</li>
<li>Your aerobic capacity is, well, not so capacious. </li>
<li>Oh, and you're fat again.</li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b style="font-size: xx-large;">Take these steps to make sure you don't fall off the Resolution train:</b></div>
<a name='more'></a><ol>
<li><b>Set your schedule in stone</b>, and use several redundant reminders- phone calendar, web calendar, ask your Mom to remind you, etc.</li>
<li><b>Get a workout partner or personal trainer</b> who will give you a penalty for no-showing. </li>
<ul>
<li>Most trainers agree; we all feel better when we can provide the service you paid for, and would rather <i>not</i> charge you for no reason, so don't force our collective hands. </li>
<li>Your workout partner is similarly investing time and emotion into your goals- don't leave 'em hanging!</li>
</ul>
<li><b>When in doubt, diet it out</b>- if all heck breaks loose and you can't get your act together this week, then be twice as strict with your nutrition, both to remind yourself why you're doing what you're doing, and to better prepare your body to excel during your next exercise session</li>
</ol>
<br />

Emotionally, physically, and even mechanically. Your knee hurts [that old injury from high school wrestling] and you have super low motivation.<br />
<br />
You might have overtrained. Ask yourself the following three questions before making a change to your training sessions:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Am I losing effectiveness in other areas of my life?</li>
<li>Do I no longer approach my training with the same precision as I did when I started this exercise modality?</li>
<li>Have I been in serious <i>pain</i> for more than 3 days?</li>
</ol>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">If the answer is "<i>yes</i>" to 2 or more, then you may have a problem... let's fix it!</span></div>
<a name='more'></a><ol>
<li>If you feel general malaise, exhaustion, lethargy, or just plain mental fuzziness, it's a good bet that <b>something is off between your training, nutrition, and <i>sleep</i></b>. Analyze all three together, instead of trying to troubleshoot just <i>one</i> of them: you might subconsciously be ignoring a major problem area in order to accommodate other lifestyle choices. Be fully honest, and you'll eventually find a balance.</li>
<li><b>Stick with the program!</b> If you're doing CrossFit, don't switch to 100% kettlebells for 3 days just because you think it's fun. If you're prepping for a bodybuilding competition, don't start powerlifting because you read something cool about it in a magazine. Stick with the program, and tighten up your adherence to it until you reach the next milestone, even if you have to lower the amount of weight or the number of reps you do [for a time]. <b><i>THEN</i></b> you will feel the sense of accomplishment that in essence gives you permission to change course. A course that you should also stick to until reaching a reasonable milestone, I might add.</li>
<li><i><b>Pain</b></i> and <i><b>damage</b></i> are different, but persistent pain often points to potential damage. Seek out the help of a qualified professional, and ask about all of your options. Be sure that the professional you work with actually understands the value of an active lifestyle, or you can be sure that they'll relegate you to a life of <i><b>speedwalking</b></i> [<i>my personal idea of never doing anything fun or challenging ever again</i>].</li>
</ol>
<br />
So take a few minutes to conduct this little '<i>training inventory</i>', and I'll see you on the <i>other</i> side of overtraining.<br />
<br />

You get into your intense exercise sessions and some stranger says "Wow, you're an animal! So what are you training for, the Olympics?!"<br />
<br />
Or how about when you're actually training for an event like a 5k or half marathon and someone at the cocktail party tells you "Oh! I'm doing P90X: I'm training hard- <b><i>just like you</i></b>!", winking like a total git.<br />
<br />
You might feel like punching said individual in the throat meat- and that would make this particular instance of the problem go away- but we don't condone violence here. Instead, allow me to propose a different approach...<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><ol>
<li><b>Set clear goals</b>, and tell everyone in your sphere of influence what they are.</li>
<li><b>Be clear with your friends</b> about what truly constitutes 'cheating' so they can keep you accountable.</li>
<ol>
<li>This applies to both training and nutrition.</li>
</ol>
<li><b>Use headphones</b> when you're not working directly with a personal trainer or coach.</li>
</ol>
If someone uses the ignorant phrases from the start of this post even after you've taken the above precautions, then at this point, they're really just trying to compliment you, and don't have the vocabulary to know that there's a difference between what you're doing, and what they have personal experience with.<br />
<br />
In fact, they may be trying to use this as a pick up line, so try to be gracious and polite. Who knows, the next 'git' who tells you s/he's doing P90X might be your future love interest.<br />
<br />
<b>Stay Strong, Friends.</b>
