It depends on whether you are talking about aerobic training (running, cycling) or anaerobic training (weight lifting, body building) but they do have many symptoms in common:

  • Persistent fatigue.
  • Persistent muscle soreness.
  • Elevated resting heart rate (assuming you know your previous baseline).
  • Increased susceptibility to infections (decreased immunity).
  • Increased incidence of injuries.
  • Insomnia (particularly in aerobic athletes).
  • Irritability or depression (particularly in anaerobic athletes).

What are four signs of overtraining?

HR is the single most effective indicator of overtraining. If you perform the same activity as you did a few weeks ago and your HR is significantly higher you are probably overtraining.
