Unfortuntely it's not overtraining for me, more like get off your arse and train. <br /><br />I have had periods of taking Lycine regularly and it seems to work, but takes a few months to build up in the system. So you still may get a few in the beginning. I've had about 5 in the past 6 weeks. Time to go back to it I think for me.

If you enjoy the turbulence...Train for enjoyment :)<br />If you enjoy the turbulence training then do that, or work on strength, or whatever. If you EAT like your not trying to loose weight then muscles won't get eaten up by heavy training. Post-comp your body is in recovery-mode which is also growth mode. It's a great time to focus on an area you'd like to see more developement in. Also, you don't NEED to train often as you were. So if you're feeling over-trained then maybe spend the week doing some strength testing (find your 1RM and 5RMs) just for fun. Maybe you've always wanted to be able to do a chinup... or 10. Why not focus on that?Michelle Koenhttp://www.michellekoen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22078522.post-69448178838805865012009-06-22T11:17:16.151+10:002009-06-22T11:17:16.151+10:00Hi Katie,

I think you will stay fit you are so dedicated and focused on your training and food log! I'm not worried and you shouldn't either! :)) Rest up so you can hit the gym..I know you want too!CathyChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10454904674379005276noreply@blogger.com
