7 Signs Your Program Has Made You “Overtrain”

Get Fast Podcast - Triathlon, Ironman & Cycling Coaching Advice

A podcast to help you Train Smarter and Race Faster. Hosted by expert Triathlon coach, Australian Ironman Champion and 15 x Aus Age group Champion Gerard Donnelly, and his son, multiple Triathlon + Cycling Aus Age Group Champion Jordy Donnelly.

The scariest part of overtraining is that we often don’t realise it’s happening until it’s too late.

Overtraining can have wildly varying consequences, you might get lucky and get away with something mild, or you might end up with long-term injury, illness, or the loss of motivation to train or compete in any way.

On this podcast, we’re huge proponents of enjoyment being the number one goal: and a loss of enjoyment usually means something has gone seriously wrong.

So in this episode, we’re talking about 7 signs to look out for before it’s too late.

As always, this episode is brought to you by our proud sponsor Giant Australia. For all your bike, training, and racing needs, ride life, ride Giant.
