So, I have been training (hard, for me) 5 days a week for some time now. I do it because I have the time and enjoy it. I try not to overtrain but I tend to overreach.
A couple of weeks ago I started eating less for general health getting older. Even though I lost weight my midsection has remained flabby. At first I blamed it on less kettlebell work. I also had thought maybe it’s high cortisol so I was going to seek ways to reduce it until I watched this video and learned that I should reduce my training to less days per week or ease up on a couple days. I am not seeking advice so much but want to share what has changed my thoughts on the possible solution.
I despise YouTube science influencers who have to have something new every day or week when the reality is there is nothing new. IMO
If you have no interest just move along and have a good day and don’t stop.
