A doctor has provided 1 answer

Over-Training: You are likely experiencing symptoms of over-training. Increasing fatigue after constant workouts is the first sign of this condition. As this progresses, you could develop tendonitis, bursitis, and overuse injuries. I recommend discussing your training routine with a qualified athletic trainer or coach to help balance your training goals with your body’s need to recover between workouts.
