Detailed explanation-1: -This overwhelming stress can have a negative effect on your physical fitness, making it difficult for you to achieve targets, focus on the workout, and recover adequately. A research published in the journal Sports Medicine noted that stress impairs efforts to be physically active.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fractures most often happen when more force is applied to the bone than the bone can take. Bones are weakest when they are twisted. Bone fractures can be caused by falls, injury, or as a result of a direct hit or kick to the body. Overuse or repetitive motions can tire muscles and put more pressure on the bone.

Detailed explanation-4: -“Overtraining can lead to overuse injuries such as muscle strains, stress fractures or tendon injuries.” Plus, when you exercise too much, you may lose your motivation or simply no longer enjoy your sports or workouts, ‘’ said Amy Jo Overlin, MD, a sports medicine physician at Banner Health in Phoenix, AZ.
