The Hidden Risks of Overtraining: Protecting Athletes from Burnout and Injury
Overtraining in athletes can surpass the body's recovery ability, impacting joint health and performance. It increases injury risks like tendonitis and chronic inflammation, leading to conditions such as osteoarthritis. Muscle imbalance and reduced mobility are also consequences, impairing performance with decreased strength and mental burnout.

It increases injury risks like tendonitis and chronic inflammation, leading to conditions such as osteoarthritis. Muscle imbalance and reduced mobility are also consequences, impairing performance with decreased strength and mental burnout. To protect athletes, strategies include implementing rest days, monitoring training intensity, cross-training, and optimized nutrition. Additionally, chronic compartment syndrome (CCS) is a condition of increased pressure in muscle compartments, causing pain and weakness during exercise. Early recognition through symptoms like tightness and numbness is crucial, with treatment options ranging from physical therapy to surgical fasciotomy. Preventing CCS involves gradual training progression and proper footwear. Recognizing overtraining and conditions like CCS ensures athletes maintain peak performance and long-term joint health.
